Bertie Foreman is being proudly supported by Snooze Manly Vale for the 2024/25 season.
Snooze was born in 1974 under the trading name Capt’n Snooze. From humble beginnings, Capt’n Snooze started with just one Melbourne store, one of the first specialist bed stores in the country. As demand grew, so did the store count, and it was soon time for Capt’n Snooze to spread its cape across Victoria and into New South Wales.
In 1992 Capt’n Snooze arrived in Queensland and impressed locals with its signature bedroom expertise and personalised bedroom options. Soon after, with much to conquer, Capt’n Snooze joined forces with franchised bedding group, Bedpost, creating one of the world’s largest franchised specialist bedding chains.
Foreman joined our club last season from Sussex in the UK after previously playing for the England U/19s. He won the O’Reilly Medal in 23/24 to join Mason Crane, Mike Gatting, Geoff Boycott and Tony Greig as the only Englishmen to have won the O’Reilly Medal. It is a testament to the year he has had. 50 wickets at 17.16 is a fantastic haul for an off-spinner in Australia. We know it is usually tough going for off-spinners here, but he has bamboozled opponents on occasions.
A well credentialed batter, Foreman has always showed his ability with the bat with some strong performances from the number 8 position. The love and passion Bertie has shown for our club both on and off the field in such a short period of time has been infectious.
