A gun footballer doesn't get dropped in a team that possesses the weakest and least experienced key defensive unit within the AFL sorry.

Gun is another word that is thrown around far too loosely.

Frost is a developing player with some glaringly obvious weaknesses to his game, he is most definitely not a "gun".

I certainly agree with your view that the term “going to be a gun” is grossly overused -  I clearly remember more than one poster (though I can’t remember who) throwing the term “gun” re the likes of Blease, Strauss, Maric,  Morton, even Tynan and Taggert.

Lets hold off such lauding until they actually do something eg Oliver, Viney

The hype begins...

"The same kid with the raking left boot now has a dozen AFL clubs clamouring for his services. West Coast, which has five picks in the top 40 of the NAB AFL Draft, is arguably the keenest."

Mid to late second round is my guess........ mmmm Watts for Fritsch anyone?

Can't see it myself given how desperate we are for outside mids.

Pick 29 would be about right.

Let's hope we nab him early but its looking more and more unlikely

Doesn't look like we're expecting more from this bloke than Watts so lets get him......

Time to reveal to the footy world that he is a drug addict, serial killer, impossible to Coach, cries in interviews, hates training, is disobedient and forgets people's birthdays.

I could handle most of those, but that last one... that's a hanging offence!

Great, now we'll only need to use 47 for him.

Like that former famous Essendon player Bundy Riewoldt-Akermanis?

Haven't heard his name mentioned as a good pick by any of the footy shows, I might have missed it though? I wouldn't think we'd use our first pick on him, maybe 2nd or 3rd depending who else is still available.

Heard Fritsch was out drinking last night.  Got arrested outside nightclub at 4am.  Might have been fighting.  Similar to Jack Darling in 2010. How could anyone but MFC take the punt on this reckless young man !!  (Hope HS picks up this news ;)  )

Loyalty issues as well I have heard!

It was rumoured, as well, that other team members are scared to hit the showers with him. That would rule out a pick-up by Adelaide, Port, Collingwood, Hawthorn, GWS, the Doggies, don't you think?

What have I started? 

BTW I heard from his barber he has lice. 

I actually have resigned myself to him getting selected by another club before we can get him with the pick we want to use. 

Would be very happy if he gets to us.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
