    I think without Foster's unfortunate absence we might well be about six points better off right now.

    Foster had been named in the preliminary squad despite South Africa being told by Burnley that he would not be available. The South Africans have now conceded he will not be travelling.

    Obviously news does not travel fast in SA. Vinni told them that a week ago.

    The old club v country debate rears its ugly head again.

    I'm glad the SA footy authority saw sense and did not try and force the issue.

    It wasn't club v country though, Vinni said at the Presser it was nothing to do with him or BFC, it was a decision made by the medical team into whose care Lyle has been entrusted. In which case the SAFA have little choice but to accept that Foster would not be joining them.
