Josh Schuster says he'll be ready to step up and fill Kieran Foran's void at five-eighth for Manly if called upon by coach Des Hasler. Foran suffered a suspected broken hand in Friday night's big win over Brisbane, with the Sea Eagles expecting him to be sidelined for at least a few weeks. Working in their favour at least is they have the bye in round 13, meaning they could escape with Foran missing just one match. "I'm pretty comfortable with it," Schuster said. "I played five-eighth before and when I heard I had to jump into the halves with Foz (injured), I was pretty happy with it. "If I'm being honest though I am pretty disappointed for my mate Kieran Foran. "I know how hard he will work to get back." Schuster's debut at five-eighth last year was labelled by Benji Marshall as the best he'd seen in his 18 seasons of NRL.
