O/T: Foran, Rothfield and Hayson

[Poupou Escobar]

you dont know that at all,

you're not exactly qualified in that area and I daresay you've never met him so its a bit of a stretch to be able to diagnose him from behind your keyboard

I don't need to be a doctor to know that if he was motivated by huge money when he signed with us, that motivation probably didn't completely leave him when he went mad.

...........if.............probabaly...............yeah OK

 

[Poupou Escobar]

You don't handle uncertainty well do you old fella? Everything's either 100% or 0%, just like it was in the 80s.

 

[Twizzle]

well there is a lot of uncertainty in those last few posts so you gave me plenty to work with

 

[Poupou Escobar]

I get paid to make assessments so my analysis is pretty sound. You don't need to be a soothsayer to know Foran gave up a lot by leaving.

 

[T.S Quint]

I recall Tim Smith having asimilarly speedy "recovery" upon release too, even if things sadly didn't work out too well for him longer term.

Ben Barba recovered from his 'problems' almost overnight.

Todd Greenberg is one hell of a doctor.

you don't get paid to make assessments here Poo

 

[Poupou Escobar]

You merkins get it for free but the quality is the same, have no fear.

If I tell you a pair of dice probably won't come up double sixes and then it comes up double sixes, it doesn't mean I was wrong. Though it does probably mean I am tPB.

I think Pou's comments are fair.

How would having a release affected his ability to get assistance? If anything, having a professional organisation assisting with his needs would have made his situation more hopeful.

So, I agree with Pou and think Twizzle is just being a dicknose.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Yeah f**k you Twizzle

Lol, if the quality of the #poulogic that you post on here is the same as what you offer in return for payment, the fear should be all yours...

In terms of Foran, meh. We were starting down the path of breaches for non-compliance with injury rehab, and he (his manager) was simply smart enough to take a settlement/payment with the release while he could still get it. Everyone's a winner - Foran got paid for the year, and we get out of what would have been a more costly than expected contract (with no guarantee of any returns, the way Foran was headed).

Completely agree and don't forget Foran then gets to leaves the media pressure cooker that is the Parramatta Eels to avoid some of the spotlight on some of his other issues.

Leaving Parra to avoid the spotlight seems to have worked well for Foran.

Yeah it has, what's he up to these days? It's like he fell of the face of the Earth?

 

[Happy MEel]

I realise you're being sarcastic but I'd say it absolutely has. Yes he has been in the media but can you imagine if he was still at our club? It would still be making the back page every other day.

 

[Twizzle]

he is still without a club and no one knows his mental state

yeh, he's doing great

 

[phantom eel]

Foran himself has been out of the media... there are speculative articles, but very few with Foran actually involved, being quoted, or his whereabouts reported.

Massive improvement from the pressure he was under pre-release.

And he's being paid for the year to get him through until end October... Given Hayne endured two months of "unemployment" before he started to panic, I'd only worry if Foran doesn't have a club in place by Christmas. (Warriors are a lock in though... especially now with supercoach Kearney.)

Souths...for a fair bit less than 600k too.

Guess it comes down to a choie between his godfather/svengali, and access to his kids.

Even from NZ Foran could probably negotiate a day off in Sydney after every away game, which is probably the same access to his family that he'd get if he was living nearby anyway?
