No contact for Foran

STAR Canterbury recruit Kieran Foran admits he is unlikely to be involved in any contact work until the new year as he rebuilds his battered body for his new NRL club.

Foran has been in rehabilitation at the Bulldogs for the best part of a month after battling through quad, back and hamstring injuries during his stint with the New Zealand Warriors this year.

“Pre-Christmas I won’t be doing too much contact work. It’ll be mainly strengthening my body back up and getting on top of those injuries I had,” Foran said yesterday.
