Recommitted Darcy Fogarty [re-signed]

[JaegarTime]

Would absolutely love this guy at the Hawks. Those saying he can't be a mid... a lot of his pre-draft games were him being that big midfielder. He dominated as well. At one stage he was in talks of being pick 1 cause he was so good and powerful (beautiful kick as well). Slipped down a bit due to injury in his last season before being drafted I believe.
I do agree he's probably carrying a little bit too much weight at the moment, if you could strip a bit off him I really think he could be a star in the midfield and resting forward.

If hawthorn offered their FRP for Fogarty, you would have to seriously consider it if you were the Crows. Q

lol yeah sure...

 

[citizen-erased]

We at bomberland don't mind a forward who doesn't run and put pressure on.
With Hooker likely retiring come seasons end, Fogarty would step in nicely.

Strong hands, kicks straighter than any bomber i've seen since Lloyd.

It seems he is highly regarded with Nicks who has mentioned him recently in the press. I'd be spewing if we traded him or he asked for a trade but I doubt that will happen anytime soon. I expect he'll be offered a new contract before too long.

 

[Bearded Clam]

From Lucindale I think, so Melbourne not much further than Adelaide.

Yep... was a Boarder at Rostrevor College...

be a bit difficult to class a kid whos grown up spending a lot of time living away from their family a “mummy’s boy”..

 

[Enviable Tradition]

Ran PB's during preseason, so never been fitter.

Just needs to be given a decent block of games to come up to speed.

That's the worry for mine.

I said to a mate last year that he needs to get fit to be a chance to make it (and I didn't think he would).

He seems to have proven me wrong on the fitness front but he still can't get the pill which makes it hard to see where the improvement is going to come from.

He is an elite kick, but it takes more than that.

Need to be given more than 1 game in a row to prove himself & settled in a role.

Yeah fair call.

He didn't rack up big numbers at SANFL level either though.

I doubt he'd sign it, why would he want to play another 12 months behind Walker. Playing him, Tex, Lynch and a 2nd ruck isn't sustainable and you'd think the coaches will wake up sooner or later.

Would gladly take him and let him play FF for us.
If Hooker retires, we lose a strong marking, consistent kick. He'd be perfect.

2nd mate, and right now that's arguably overs.

Lol Hawks aren't offering a top 5 (potentially top 3) pick for him.

 

[Red Black and Blue]

Personally would love him. Not as a forward, but as a mid. Looks to finally have a bit of that mobility back he lost when he had the knee troubles under 18. Was running with Fyfe a bit on the weekend. If he can show more in the guts before now and the end of the year I doubt anyone will get the chance as the Crows will sign him up.

 

[The Nostradamus]

Feel like right now he makes crows too top heavy

tex and Thilthorpe with himmelberg also

Would prefer we have a choice of key forwards...

 

[Elmer_Judd]

Would be interested in him at Carlton,
if Andrew Russell thinks he can get his fitness up to scratch..

3rd-4th rounder

We don't need more conditional/unfit players at Carlton tbh.

 

[chickentendies]

He doesn’t want to leave, is happy albeit a bit frustrated. Crows are open to offers.

I'd bring him in as a forward.
If we can do temp rotations in the middle all well and good, but a forward line with him deep, Wright (and eventually Eyre/Baldwin) at CHF, and Stringer/Jones as the next set of talls is a good line up.

Also, i could watch his kicking for goal all day long. As opposed to the spray merchants we've invested in since Lloyd.
Fogarty + Waterman....dat goal kicking efficiency.....

Gunston wasn't enough lol. Fog would probably carve up at the Hawks.

 

[LoBu]

Wait until Burgess gets hold of him, will be firing 2022/ 2023

He is starting to find himself.
Is the best set shot for goal in the AFL, so he makes the most goal wise from opportunities. He showed last week that he can play in the midfield and offer a point of difference to what other mids we have.

 

[THE_GUN]

I really dont know which player is more over hyped
Jake Stringer , Jordan De Goey or Darcy Fogarty

Who hypes up Fogarty in the media excessively (least in Victoria) ?
