You guys overestimate fogarties abilities.

I have absolutely no illusions about Fogs limited abilities. I think the argument here is that he is in very good form and at his best, limits and all. Whereas we've got more talented blokes playing in the seniors who are, however, in poor form and not deserving of a senior gig. We've (CFC) often said that we will reward good form in the Magoos and blokes in the seniors will have to earn their place. This does not appear to be happening.
Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17

From what I've seen in VFL this season Fogarty is consistently giving us more of what we need than Cunningham, but if he can get back to his best Cunningham has a whole other gear, but it doesn't show at the moment.

On form we perhaps made a mistake playing Honey ahead of Fogarty, but I can understand because of Honey's potential upside. Fogarty was probably a better choice of replacement for Owies, but I don't think Fogarty will ever be as physical as Owies. How can the coaches put together a similar cake with different ingredients?

At the moment we lack good form, we have been scraping through against teams that are good but also not in good form, it showed Thursday night.

Fogarty is a tough nugget under the packs - not everyone needs to be a game breaker. Fisher isn't playing his role and need to reward players that could replace him and do a better job.

Not debating there isn't better 20 year olds in the AFL but that doesn't mean he doesn't have a brighter future than some of our other also rans.  He turns 21 in December.

We really need an U21's with our reserves above them. In reality, this would be better for most players coming through. The AFL team would mostly be comprised of the 24 yrs and up with superstar 'kids' occasionally gaining promotion. By then, you know who is dedicated and potentially has the physical durability to survive.
