2012 Player Review - # 48 Jack Fitzpatrick

Featured Replies

Posted
Jack has demonstrated plenty of resilience this season, overcoming illness and managing his diabetes. His VFL form, particularly throughout the second half of the year, was very good. Additionally, he led the Casey goal kicking with 28 for the season, and was rewarded with two AFL games this year. There were certainly positives in his game against Fremantle in Round 23, and he has a great

understanding of what is required to compete as a key forward at this level. We look forward to Jack completing another full pre-season and taking the next step with his football, maximising his speed, athleticism and 200 cm frame Paul Satterley melbournefc.com.au

It will be very interesting to see what happens with Fitzy this year given all of the forwards that we have recruited.

In 2012 his game started to come together and he looked reasonable at AFL in his couple of games. Everyone talks about Daniher as a 200 cm forward yet Fitz with his speed could be very damaging at AFL level. I am hoping that with a big pre season that he could be the surprise packet of 2013.

However could you have Clark, Dawes, Hogan (2014) & Fitzy in the same forward line?

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
