  There's no difference. Kieran will play on the right, Corey will play on the left.

    You're kidding, there is a big difference. Foran is not a halfback and will play about six games there before BA realises it.

  I'm actually really looking forward to them being our 6&7 in 2016. Very exciting combo.

  Its been confirmed that Foz will be our number 7 next year from BA himself and will be the 'leading half' in BAs words.

  Corey would only get in the way of Foz if he was 7, he will get in the way of Foz period.

  Except for feeding the scrum there is little these days to differentiate their roles. At least our premier player will have hands on the ball more often. Watmough will love running off Foran's inside passes again.

  FFS Norman will be the left half and Foran the right half. Whether they wear 6 or 7 makes no difference. It is no longer the 1980s. They will both feed the scrum too depending on what side of the field the scrum is on.

    That will definitely be our go-to structure that will be simple and we can work the edges with that set-up. We may just use Norman like we did this year with him roaming around more playing like a fullback in attack at times and it would be silly for us not to use Foran's strength on the left at times. But I definitely agree that Norman will be on the left and Foran on the right.

  In the modern day game i dont think it really matters.I think Corey and Keiran will compliment each other really well, lets be honest Corey ran that team on his own last year. They will take pressure off one and other, but Keiran needs to be the leader, its his job to lead the boys around, make sure they get to their kick etc....

  I've no doubt they will play well together, the only question is how long will it take for them to gel and learn each others games.

  There's no difference between a 6 and a 7. Foran will play the exact same type of game as he did with your mob, just that he'll be kicking more often than he did over there. He'll handle the ball a similar amount of times, he'll take the line on the exact same way, just because he changes jersey colour and number doesn't mean his role within the team will change drastically. If we wanted a different style half, we would've gone with someone different.
