Best game in ages. Looks like he's almost back to his "Good Fog" form. Great to see!

It could be the start of the New Good Fog era... maybe. We'll see if he can sustain it, but his form over the last couple of weeks has been very promising. It's been a massive improvement over what he's done for the previous 12 months. Good to see things going in the right direction for him again.

Great game from Fogarty. Against quality tall defenders he looked like a quality key forward.

A good game by Fog tonight...pity the shot during the siren to end the third quarter was not his best kick.

Massive confidence player, hopefully continues like this for the rest of the season and beyond
If Fog can keep this up, the club can in my opinion make a call on Walker with RT and Welsh looming as well.

This might be an oversimplification but it really seems true.
When he is focussing on wrestling and trying to get an uncontested chest mark = no good.
When he backs himself to run and jump at the ball = very good.
I’m not sure why we don’t see the latter more often but hopefully this is a turning point.

The leader of the bunch.
Looking forward to seeing how he goes under a coach with a half decent gameplan.

I saw an early rock video today running a promo with stone cold Steve Austin in 1997
And honestly it felt like rock was out of his depth with Austin.
In 1997 he absolutely was. He didn't really put it all together until 1998.
Excellent game by Fogarty today, especially given Walker was very down. Unfortunately to have the siren interrupt his ball drop or else probably would have had five, and a win.

Easily the best game by the FOG this season. Looked great.
Spot on. Its all between the ears for him.
Lets hope he can keep this form up for the rest of the season.

Yeah, that's the issue with Fog. He struts around like a 1980s Tom Sellick, but he isn't a confident as he appears. Very much someone who needs to play well, to keep playing well.
Plus, he did have some mental health issues previously, so we hope he isn't in a down spot at the moment.

So he's leaving SA then....
Need to get him involved up the ground early in games. Reckon he gets frustrated when his first 15 leads are ignored and then can't work himself into the game.
Every time I write Fog off he comes good. I'll do it more often.

When he really attacks the ball hard and takes that early mark, its like a barometer for him and sets the tone. He just needs to harness how he started V Brisbane and there is a very very good player in there.

The siren went probably 75% of the way through his routine. I don't think he could have stopped at that point.
I think he had a set shot on goal a few weeks ago while the siren went, sprayed it and I thought the same thing. Aurly he can stop and restart his run up, or at least get the runner out there to tell him how long he needs to delay so it doesnt go mid way through his run up
It definitely went with plenty of time to stop and start again.
