Foster showed great promise in 2011 but sadly didnt quite cut it in 2012. As a result, he fell behind Makinson, Gardner, Meli and Swift in the pecking order and would be 5th choice winger for us if he stayed. The kid wants to be playing first team rugby so cant really blame him for going, although I do feel hte only thing we will miss is his goalkicking as our other wingers are far stronger than him
Rubbish. Foster was no worse than any of the other players and bar one shocker of a game at Bradford, what exactly did he do wrong? His lack of form was due to the ridiculous choice of coach the club have made in recent seasons and he was one of about 15 players who were also terrible during that period, and they aren't being chased out of the club.
Gardner is terrible, he is a complete waste of a squad place, he offers nothing. Swift isn't a winger in a million years and I'd be astonished if he ended up playing there. He's only been playing there to give him experience in the first team in a position we can carry a player in.
Meli is pretty awful on the wing as well, because he cannot catch. Foster might not be the best player ever, but he should be in our team. He's better than Gardner, less of a liability than Meli and has the positive of being an excellent goal kicker, something we lacked last season and will no doubt lack next season too.
