How good has he been since hes come back to the side!? I've always rated him and was shocked how he wasn't in the team earlier on the year.

Fast, powerful, courage, 2nd efforts are just some of the traits thats really stood out this year!

On ya Frosty!

 

Has been enormous, cuts down space quicker than anyone on our list and hurts you the other way.  A Godsend for our defence. 

 

I think the big difference with Frost is he is no longer running around like a chook with no head. When it's on he goes. When it's not he now has the patience/composure to find a better option 

Lever must be nervous... or tutoring him.

The first lesson every Melbourne coach and player should learn is not to count on Frost to know anything. The best approach is to treat him like an athletically-gifted manchild, or else some kind of football-playing robot.

Give him simple instructions and he'll follow them to the best of his absurd athletic ability. Fail to explain things clearly enough though and Sambot will proceed to beat Tom Hawkins in a one-on-one marking contest, but then bolt down the field and hoof it directly to a nest of cats for no reason whatever because his programming has gone haywire.

My post from a month ago.

Thanks for listening Goody.

 

What about his foot skills.  Hes hitting targets like its nobodys business....  looking superb.


Hardly any Frostyisms in the last few weeks. Very pleasing. How about him charging off half back and putting it down TMac’s throat?

I still suspect that there will be moments where he’ll stuff up and it will be costly, but I’m accepting that that’s the player we understand we are selecting and won’t bag him when it happens. Really happy with his present form. For his faults, the bloke has serious wheels.

For the majority here who could not see Frost’s value to the team, it is a cop-out now to suggest he is a different footballer now.

He is still prone to the odd poor kick, and god forbid, holding the pill.  While many supporters focus on these, his closing speed and rebound-inducing-overlap is pivotal to a slowish team.

Roos couldn’t believe that he was playing for Casey, as did a few backers here.

Lever’s injury forced our hand; and Frost is sticking it up a majority of supporters and a doubting coaching group.

Should have been in before petty, potentially cost us top 4 spot that decision 

Make no mistake, we would be 2nd on the ladder if Sam Frost had been picked when he should have.

Has been enormous the last month and deserves all the akolades. 


A much improved player.

Just shows what confidence does.

Maybe, that was a turning point for him.?

Has he improved much, since that time?

Having Frost and Hibberd back has really helped Oscar re-discover some poise and confidence as well. 


He actually might be quicker than Hunt....for real.

Frosty, love his speed and goes towards goal as a first option. Not many big forwards will catch him.

 

 

 

Frosty's speed and direct running are a weapon. Think his run and direct pass to TMac in Q1 today.

Can't wait for a hb line of Frost, Lever and Hunt. Catch us if you can.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
