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?

Posted

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.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
