It is just plain fun to think that we have the best 'true' medium forward in the game. Only Heeney would be a direct competitor but that thought just makes me dream of what Fritsch would be like in a fully functional forward line... oh... wait... that wasn't a dream... that was 12 goals in 3 finals!

:goody2:

Anyway, just for gloating's sake; top selections from the 2017 draft, reordered roughly as I might pick em, but very casually.

Angus Brayshaw

Aaron Naughton

Bailey Fritsch

Zac Bailey, Cameron Rayner, Adem Cerra

Tim Kelly, Liam Ryan, James Worpel, Charlie Ballard

Spargo and Petty also respectable mentions.

 

Demonland needs a Jason Taylor emoji.

Oh Dear.

Well, I'm not the first and won't be the last!

I wonder if there might even be a repeat of the 'D Cordner' (Denis & Don, of course) situation with the Brownlow votes one day.

I never had that problem with Allen Jakovich. He's a forward and I reckon somewhat comes with the territory.

Yes of course, but sometimes… it less a burning and more an immolation worthy of scripture and legend…

His tackling and forward pressure has come along nicely

I love inter alia his round the corner snaps for goal.

Me too, always feel safe when he goes round the body onto that left.

Tracing around those big ol’ letters and getting high on texta fumes.

Fritta’s mum just rocked up: let the fun begin! 🥳

When Pauline saw this she said, “I think I’m gonna cry” and I said “stop, you’ll make me cry!” And so began a chain reaction and suddenly Bayley had an additional half a dozen mums. 😁
 

And two brand new Giant Fritta heads!

Love your passion and work WCW!

One of my favourite Demons!

He's had a quietly good season so far despite not tearing a game apart. Hopefully this is the weekend he comes out firing and kicks a bag of six or seven. 

Side note - He becomes the first player from his draft year to hit the 100 game milestone which is a terrific effort!

 

Well done on 100... no one would have seen your career trajectory and highlights package coming, least of all your grand final performance.

 

Anyway... glad he snuck through a goal tonight...

Marbol and Bayley are the only two left standing... kicked a goal in every match in 2022...

Brilliant pic and banner WCW.

Hope you enjoyed the game.

got a shout out by the commentators at one stage when he was in a contest around the 50m arc

"hair-raising? he's played 100 games and never had a hair out of place!"

Mr. and Mrs. Fritta loved the hair-raising reference on the banner. They had a choice of either that, or High-Flying. They chose wisely, since Fritta loved it too. 
Scott (Dadda Fritta) was so pleased about the fam (14 of them) being invited to raise the banner, he sent us this message this morning. Note how he signs off. 😁

Honestly, this is so heartwarming. It’s easy to forget in the context of billion dollar tv deals and million dollar contracts that these are just people, with families.

It means so much to them, and only means more as they get further into life and realise how lucky they’ve been to be involved in the way they are.

It's a yes from me

I must say the Bailey Fritsch had an excellent 2022. 55 goals and 5th on the goalkicking table behind Curnow, Lynch, Cameron and Hawkins. He has steadily improved and notably his goalkicking accuracy has improved tremendously. 
55.22. An excellent conversion. 
All the practice which seemed to dessert him in game time finally paid off and he’s become a strong part of the team. 
Whilst I’m sure he rather be competing and winning the GF, he can hold his head high.
Congratulations to Fritsch on an excellent 2022. 


First player since David Neitz around 20 years ago to lead the goalkicking in three consecutive seasons.

He is a gun. Imagine if he got to play alongside a dominant tall forward!

  • 9 months later...

Kicked his 200th goal on the weekend and currently sits at #26 for most goals scored at MFC.

May end up top 5 by the time his career is done.

 

Criminally underrated and flying under the radar again with 27 goals from 12 matches.

  • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
