    Yeah for sure 

    a couple years in the system and he should bulk up well

    Bull, Dec and now Fritta, 3 Casey boys, Dec is over the moon

    Am I the only one concerned that we picked a bloke the drinks a lot and goes out partying with Jaime Elliot? ;)
     

    On a serious note, a great pick up and a credit to everyone involved at Casey.

    No doubt he is a talent,  be interesting to see what role a player of his size and skill set can play in the modern game.

    so is the pressure already on this kid because he was chosen by the pick we got for Watts? 

    I really do not want the medal to keep bringing it up next year whenever he gets the ball that we got this kid with the paick we traded for watts. 

    On another note just looked at the AFL site. What the hell, Dom Barry has been picked by port at 61. Didnt even know he was still around the system.

    Motivator for the other young guns.

    Casey has been amazing as an AFL pathway.  Look at the guys who have been picked up from there.  Silvagni, Mohr, McInerney, Smith, Keilty, and now Fritsch.  There may be others as well that I've missed.  That's a pretty great record for a VFL side.  I don't know how many others have produced that many mature-aged recruits.

    Love his kick as well as his mark and he can run.

    There's a lot more to footy than that of course but really it's the basis of AFL football isn't it?

    Wouldn't at all be surprised to see him playing half back or rotating through a wing as part of his development.

    Maybe the shoe will be on the other foot: "Gee, Port Adelaide really missed out by trading out pick 31" every time Fritsch takes a mark or kicks a goal? Anyway, next year is not the year to decide one way or the other.

    No there will never be another, BUT, he does remind me of the great Robbie with a couple of his attributes.

    I take full credit for getting this guy, by exposing all his faults to the other 17 clubs, who were scared to take him before pick 31.

    Ha! I was literally just going to type, glad he is off the gear, has his licence back and still loves his Mum.

    Never seen him play but he always seems to bob-up at the right times during the Casey gameday threads.

    Is there a highlights package of his kicking around somewhere??

    Could've had him at 37 if West Coast were scared off as well. Unfortunately the talks of substances, nights out and defects only made them keener.

    Ive already talked Fritsch up a lot but I'll let his footy do the talking from now on. So happy we grabbed him 1 pick before WCE could. Literally yelled when we saw he was picked up by the MFC.

    Can't wait to see Bull, Keilty and Fritsch all playing in the Seniors together next year:cool:

    A phenomenal season with Casey and was red hot again in yesterdays final with another 4 goals. 

    20 years old, 186 cm, beautiful left boot, fantastic mark, great goal sense.  Sitting 5th in the VFL  goalkicking. 

    Could be Hannan 2.0, though his upside is even greater.

    Get him.

     

    VFL+Qualifying+Final+Williamstown+v+Case

     

    Good call,  you truly are a visionary.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
