Far less experienced? A mighty 6 SL games less than Foster over 2 years?
Mcgilvray played basketball until he was 18, and tuck up rugby league after that. In comparison Foster has been playing the game since the age of 14. I'd say that's a pretty big difference in experience between the two of them.

No place in this league for solid wingers who finish well and kick goals. Unless they play for Wigan, in which case they become Man Of Steel contenders.
p.s. Mcgilvray busts more tackles and makes more clean breaks than Pat too if you go by JM's 2011 stats and PR's "Man Of Steel" winning 2010 season; I suppose you could say "his kick returns and general play are far more dangerous to the opposistion than what Richards ever offers".
Mcgilvray has been the standout winger in SL for me so far, so his stats don't surprise me one bit. The fact that Jermaine's stats hold up so well against Pat the best winger in SL, just goes to show what a good player Mcgilvray is. The same however can't be said for Foster when compared to either Pat or Jermaine, his stats are far less impressive. Well apart from the goal kicking one's, but you'd expect that from a goal kicking one trick pony.
I don't want this to appear as though I've got something against Foster because I haven't. Although his hair is pretty gay. I simply asked the original question wondering if you tuck Fosters superb kicking game off him, does he posses anymore strings to his bow. And to be honest I got the answer I expected, solid in all departments but superb in none. But hell you can make a career out of that, just ask Ade Gardner or our own Darrel Goulding.
