Jamal Fogarty's crucial role in the Raiders' performance has sparked discussions about his absence in State of Origin talks.
Despite not being mentioned frequently, Fogarty, a former Gold Coast Titan, has been in outstanding form throughout the first half of 2025, proving himself as one of the best halfbacks in the NRL.
The recent games of the Raiders illustrate his significance-particularly in Round 13, where the Raiders faced a weakened Sydney Roosters team.
Fogarty was a late withdrawal due to a minor injury, and his absence was felt as the Raiders struggled to secure a narrow two-point victory.
