In a move that cements his status as a true leader on and off the field, Jamal Fogarty has been named vice-captain for the Canberra Raiders in the upcoming 2024 season, according to a report on raiders.com.au.

With Elliott Whitehead at the helm as club captain, this announcement comes as no surprise, especially after the retirement of former co-captain Jarrod Croker at the end of last season.

Fogarty has proven himself as one of the team's most consistent players since joining the Raiders in 2022, showing his dedication and skill in 39 matches.

As the team's halfback, his ability to control the game and make crucial decisions influenced the decision to elevate him to the vice-captaincy role, ensuring that the team has a capable leader on the field if Whitehead is unable to fulfill his duties.
