What are peoples thoughts on Geelongs Fogerty vs Barry? Who are their competition who are out of the side atm. Who has better JS/Scoring potential?
Have Barry at the moment, but will he last? Will Fogerty last?
Fogarty a bit of an unknown just yet. We know he's a prolific tackler, which if helps him out if he can keep that in his game as a small fwd. There'll be lots of shuffling at the cats over the next few weeks, but the high-pressure fwd is a role they haven't nailed yet and he could make it his own. Lots of uncertainty with the geelong side in general.
We know what we're getting with Barry as a mature age player, he'll tie up a spot on the wing and half fwd, provide outside run. Currently keeping Amon out of the 22, and Gray could take his place next week. Or Marshall could go for Gray if they're too tall. They're the only real challenges for Barry in the short term I reckon.
Both could be gone next week. But I liked what I saw from Barry in JLT, and you don't pick up a mature age player in the main draft unless you see a clear role for them (see: Tim Kelly).
