In a fantasy world Dearden or Sam Walker.
Hard to believe it could happen, though.

Probably get shot down in flames for this, but I don’t think either Walker or Dearden would be a great fit for us. I’d genuinely prefer Fogarty or Cody based on what they could potentially do for our attack.

I love Dearden’s effort and at rep level he seems to grow another leg, but I wouldn’t call him a traditional 7 or game manager by any means. At the cows it was generally Drinkwater and Clifford doing most of the kicking and playmaking, whereas Dearden played more eyes up. I don’t think that’s something we need as much as we need structure and control. I’d put Walker more or less in the same basket, albeit his skills are a bit more elite than Dearden’s but his style of play is more sporadic and unorthodox. Again, that’s not something that I think is going to suddenly transform us into a top-tier side.

What I like about Fogarty or Cody is how they could potentially compliment the players and strengths we have. Fogarty is a proven 7 who can take care of kicking and steering us around the park and then get the ball to our more potent attacking weapons when we’re in the red zone. Cody brings something completely different on the other hand, but I think it could potentially serve us even better than what Fogarty would bring. Obviously there’s the elite ability to light up the left side attack, but I also think he could help train Latu as a 7 on the run by telling him where he needs to position himself, when the pass needs to come etc. The beauty of this is that when Javon steps into the 6 role, Latu has already developed these skills and Javon’s had the added bonus of learning off Cody.

All speculation and hypotheticals at the moment of course, but just my opinion.

lachlan lam
tyrone may

But Jamal Fogarty is better than all of these and has the ingredients for what we need - game manager, superior kicking game, goal kicker and plays on the right side allowing Latu and/or Javon to develop on their preferential left.

Totally agree Fogarty is a gun and would complement all our players around his organisation and kicking game, it would allow Adam D to play to his strength and run all day from 6 or 13.

It's good to have SG back with some potential behind the scenes info... whether it eventuates or not.

The only halfbacks overseas with NRL experience are:
  1. Cherry EVANS
  2. Mason Lino
  3. Tyson Gamble (more a 5/8 and please no)
  4. Brodie Croft
  5. Jackson Hastings (Surely not)

Omg how many people have fallen for his crap. Read lis last line that he deliberately put in small ink to play games. He has not indicated its an overseas player

A LOT of moving parts in play for this one. Fogarty is still a live option but was never Tigers Plan A. This other player was Plan A but his current club shut it down. Now there are big events at this players current club and everyone has gone back to Plan A but X, Y and Z need to fall into place for Plan A (for those who understand algebra).

Goes without saying if Fogarty arrives its off.

So when did you hear about Plan A sg?

If it wasn't Nathan Cleary, how would the Plan A player being targeted & his agent feel that the WT had put in an offer for Nathan Cleary so really they would be Plan B? And may not have liked being Plan B lol
 
I’m gunna play SG game for some fun ok it is Scott Prince hahaha fits the bill veteran, not playing nrl, and better than Fogarty 😂 😂
Seriously I’m gunna say DCE
