Joey Walsh

[Andrew..]

I've been watching Humphries progress and im still not convinced he has all the attributes to be an elite half.
I hope he does, but, at this stage I feel Fogarty is the safer option.

 

[Brookie1973]

Yeah but one signed with the other side halfway through the season...

Judas I think his name was. Judas of Bondiariot

I heard they offered him a block of villas in downtown Rome and a gig writing for the Galilean Telegraph.

 

[Brookie1973]

And money
Mestrov and Spoony knew at the end of 2023 that DCE asked for a release.
Yet they didn't re-sign him.

I think it was pretty clear Seibold didn’t rate Humphries.

 

[manly al]

Walsh plays on the left and Fogarty plays on the right. I’m thinking Walsh will play 6 for us so it doesn’t really matter how long Fogarty is with us for.

Not too sure that Brooks would necessarily wish to walk with one year still remaining on his deal for 27 .
Not even sure if Walsh would be suited to a 6 role either .
Then this type of discussion predicated on Walsh actually offering some top level footy into next season or considered good enough to displace or even on par with either Brooks or Fogarty .
Tend to think that Brooks can still be the best fit at 6 for another couple of seasons yet , so more on a Walsh - Fogarty option

We need to fast track Hughes or we may lose him plenty of demand out in the market with the new sides coming in. He can potentially play 7 and Fogarty 6 in the longer term.

Who’s Hughes?

If the kid is good enough, play him during origin and who knows? An injection of a young enthusiastic half might just make the difference!

Could have saved a whole lot of BS and not having to sign Fogarty, had we just kept Jamie Humphries all along.

Personally not convinced on Humphreys.

Much prefer Fog and Walsh.

Just some stats for this season.

Humphreys in 6 games has 2 try assists and 1 line break assist.

As a comparsion...

Tom Weaver in 3 games has 3 and 1
King-Togia in 2 games has 3 and 2
Ilias in 7 games has 4 and 4
Clifford in 7 games has 4 and 3

I said this when DCE started this media circus

I really hope Walsh plays 7 during origin and absolutely stars to the point where DCE is dropped to NSW cup..

Oh the joy.. Qld captain playing NSW Cup..talk about newspaper headlines mr Media DCE will really throw a tantrum and expose his true nature.. the media would have a field day..wake me up..I'm dreaming..no give me another 5 blissful minutes 😂🤣
I want to get to the part where Joey gets us into the finals and DCEs final home game is playing 14 off the bench... comes on to a huge Boooooo everytime he touches the ball..hahaha

Gets dropped for final series and we go all the way!

Please footy gods! 🙏
