Fair to say this thread will probably get a lot of visits thru the future...
Bloke can play and play it well.
Great work from him this year so far.

what I really like about Fogarty is he always seems to have a tiny bit more time than others around the contest and it allows him to use the ball correctly. Links up well and is ferocious around the ball.
I’m a big fan.

I’m so excited about Parfitt and Fog in 5 years time

Tackles like a beast. Clean with the ball. Runs straight at the goals.
Oh agree.. love his disposal under pressure

Add Tim Kelly aswell. Building a solid young midfield team.
All 3 have what I said above too, time and ability to create space in tight and fantastic disposal out of a contest. Kelly in particular is just all class by foot.

I don’t get to go to many games.
Defiantly don’t get to go to any at home.
Went to Both the Hawks and Melbourne games.
Both times went to get a Fogarty badge and they didn’t sell them.
When I finally get to go to another game I’ll be even more annoyed now that they will all be sold out.
Love this kid, can’t wait to follow his AFL journey

How pretty would the Eagles be sitting this year if they took Fogarty and Kelly with their first two picks.
* the eagles
Its seems like we have recruited recently players who are happy to tackle and pressure. Probably not as silky as some others we have drafted but he looks very happy in heat for someone so young. He was compared to JSelwood last week , the way he can standup in a tackle... all in all .. avery promising start to his career.
Perhaps.. I think they took a longer term view with Brander and Allen has been injured. Like any draft choice ..it does become clearer over time.

Although I agree he isn't a finisher like Kelly, but he does have a very neat disposal out of congestion and has seemingly worked on his kicking depth.
I don't think he'll ever be considered "silky" but I reckon he will use it very well over his career.
The thread is overdue. His work is done inside though and hard to spot unless you concentrate. Fortunately Catamaran has been watching closely.
If Fogarty does get on top of his finishing (any one of the three shots late v Hawks would been the winner) then we will have a rising star nominee and perhaps a winner on our hands. Need the goals to catch the eye of the media (unfortunately).
From there will bigger rewards await?

Wrapped with this kid. Had no expectations at all for him this year yet he has excelled.
Shows good intention and attack on the ball but damn his kicking is shocking... Like a wedge in golf and has them floating all over the place.

Well he shockingly slotted one from 35 under pressure at a tense moment of the game.
Menzel missed two. His kicking is shocking too I presume. No of course its not.
He has missed some gettable shots yes. But its game 4 for the kid ffs. Im not gonna call him a shocking kick on the back of a few gettable yet under pressure misses.

People expect all players to have perfect kicking styles
Let him do his thing, I’ve met a kicking coach a few times and one thing he says is he won’t change someone’s style as that’s what works for them, he’ll make slight adjustments to improve the little things

Love this kid.
Injury permitting will be a 200+ gamer.
I was thinking today that so far he's actually been what Paddy Dow was meant to be.
Awesome pick at 22.

Brilliant performance last night but he's been doing it all year, just gone unnoticed by many! Great pressure, mark, decision making and kicking to advantage. A genuine rising star chance, especially for a nomination this round, however Witherden had a great game for the Lions which may give him the upper (as well as two more games to be played). Schick Player Ratings say that he has been 2nd best first year player under TKelz. Misty has a great future!! GO CATS
