    Easy tiger. Lets wait for a season or two before assessing his worthiness to wear the jumper of the great ronald dale.

    nah... this is a popular vote award... will be won by a player who plays for the big clubs

    Bit of a joke actually having such an award ... worse than the Gold Logie

    The AFL isn't putting it to public vote anymore.  Ditto GOTY.

    Nonetheless, imagine what it does for Fritsch's confidence...not bad to be nominated twice in your first 6 AFL games - suspect there will be many more to come.

    Will say it again, hes already a better player than Watts.

    And yes I will compare them as it was a direct swap and we will win it by the length of the Nullarbor

    I feel like we say that about most who wear that jumper.

    Don't mean to be picky but he's only played 5

    First second he spends in defensive 50, mark of the week. Shows how easy Howe has it.

    Slight but understandable overstatement. It's not yet the mark of the week, just a nomination. That's still a great achievement, though. As a minimum it means it was considered to be better than every other mark taken in this round except possibly two.

    For what it's worth, I expect Jack Darling's mark to win. A true contested mark against three defenders.

    I honestly cannot remember even one who wore the number with distinction since the great RDB - Fritsch to me looks the best so far.

    Many have been great disappointments (to say the least): Ray Groom was probably the best of a bad lot in my memory.

    Pretty sure they’ve changed the voting system this year after the Howe upset? 

    This kid has courage in the air and strong hands, silky skills also, great pickup from the club.

    • 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.
