Liam Foran

[Dan70]

According to RLW, he has signed for the Warriors. Can't say I'll be too sad to see him go, I don't think he has really come on as expected.

 

[philstorm]

Warriors are actually signing some half decent players.

Kemp, McKinnon, Tate, Moon and Foran in the backline isn't half-bad ...

 

[steaming stormer]

Foran hasn't shown enough in the Toyota Cup to think he was the future. Good luck to him though, hope he goes on to bigger and better things at NZ

 

[feeding frenzy]

I think he will take time to develop i remeber when he was playing along side mitch pierce when he was playing his junior footy every one thought that liam would be the next big thing not mitch.

BACK-UP halfback Liam Foran will head to Auckland at the end of the season after signing a three-year deal with the New Zealand Warriors.

Foran, who has struggled for opportunities behind Cooper Cronk, signed the deal on Thursday.
The talented Junior Kiwis halfback has played three NRL games this year.

Yeah I haven't been that impressed with him in the U20s but here's hoping things turn out better in NZ. Welcome along to the Warriors, Liam

 

[kia ora storm]

No big loss..

 

[philstorm]

We do need a backup halves player, though ...

What if GI or Cronky get injured next year?

Who steps in?

Don't you dare say Aitken ... :crazy:

 

[kia ora storm]

I think they have signed some other half from the NSW comp ???...

From Parra? I think I heard that too.

Luke Kelly has been going great in the Toyota Cup, and we could always bring Boofa back from retirement lol!

 

[stormtragic]

wish him all the best...didnt see much of him, but from a few I saw, could be a real good player

 

[byrne_rovelli_fan82]

LOL I'm sure you'll find some one. It's not all bad for yo

we apprently signed some young bloke james maloney (IIRC) from wentworthville(??).

also we do have luke kelly...has big wraps on him.

 

[kia ora storm]

Maloney ???...any profile or stats on him ??.

 

[Earl]

Luke Kelly has been really impressive, and apparently James Maloney has huge potential.

I don't think Liam Foran will have the immediate impact with NZ that people think he will. IMO he is probably another season of first grade.

 

[philstorm]

Also guys, didn't we sign up a 12 year old half from Qld, 3-4 years ago?

Wonder how he's going along.

Remember reading about it in RLW.

Has anyone read the Sunday Newspaper with the write up for Liam Foran in it. Man you need a bucket ,cause it is that sickening. Yeah I know you need to believe in yourself but hey! Being Cronks understudy blah blah. I can influence my brother to come to the Warriors. And then the article straight underneath his was about AJ Taumata being signed by the Storm for 3 years and been told he will more than likely be the number 6. Was Liam not classed as a standoff as well as a full back.

So the Storm did not want to offer a contract to Liam this year, but they are prepared to offer one to AJ Taumata (even with all his problems that he is having off the field), don't get me wrong I think that is great for Taumata. But what does that say about Foran. What do your opinion?

Yeah, we signed a kid called Ben Hampton from Nth Queensland. From all reports is progressing as has been a regular in under age representative sides.

Porbably wanted some-one at 5/8 who was more a runner then Liam who is probably to much like Cooper
