It's like the penny has dropped with him. His positioning and decision making since his return has improved out of sight. I can't recall him getting caught in no man's land in recent times which was my biggest criticism of him.

In full flight he does remind me of a couple of old blasts from the past. Gary "Crazy Horse" Cowton and our own Russell "Rhino" Richards. One was a bloody good player. The other could have been

    Frosty has done an amazing job down back. Well done Frosty?

    Used to love Slamming Sammy Kekovich in the 70’s now I have another Slamming Sam. 

    Did a great job today but has to be supported in the finals so he can play to his strengths.

    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!

    With ya. I was so relieved when he got back into the first team. He really counterbalances Oscar's lethargy.

    Let's be honest, he was thrown under the bus by a lot of supporters; i've got the sneaking suspicion that supporters claiming now is he's a much improved player, are doing so to validate their harsh criticisms. He has improved yes, but so have heaps of our players.

    Do I [censored] my pants every time he has the footy? Yes. Is he doing an amazing job shutting down some seriously good forwards? Hell yes. Am I excited to see him run rings around big butt Hawkins? Ohhhh yeah!!!

    Up the snowman!

    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.

     

     

    Because right now is the best time for point scoring.

    It might be the one plus about Lever going down. It’s hard to tell if Frost would have gotten the chance but he took it on with both hands and has clearly improved. Much more than the giraffe that escaped from the zoo.

    The man is a specimen....would have to be just about the most powerful raw athlete in the AFL and now he's starting to learn to play serious footy too

    Oh boy what do we do with him now?!

    Lever and OMac can't be moved... And he has earned his spot in the 22 for next year.

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

    Understatement of the year, amazing how you get shot down for calling for Frosty before Lever goes down.

    Now all the Pole smokers have come out of the woods, stroking the Frostmiesters bits.

    I've been going oh god oh (something) for 98% of his career. Something about how he'll gather and automatically run off his man at every opportunity. TMac actually did this a lot too when he played as a defender...

    So I guess what I'm saying is... Frost to kick 50 goals a year in a few seasons?

    I’m going to persist in reminding all the Frost knockers how bloody stupid they were and how little they really understand the development of a tall afl player because they were relentless in their bagging of him. 

    There are also some fools who have been relentless in their posting that Jordan Lewis should never play again.  Boy has Jordan made them look stupid!

    They must all be embarrassed by their poor judgement.

    Huge love for Frost, and works well in combination with Hibberd, he also has some go in him, puts a hurt on the opposition with his body contact. His speed totally destroys the forward 50 pressure of the opposition, we don't leak runs of goals with him in the team. With Lever back next year (who can rotate with Lewis off the bench we will be Lions '01-'03 like with our rebound.

    Backline in general looks better.. less zoning more one on one defence.

    Our backline next year will be OMac, Lever, Hibberd, Frost, Lewis, Jetta and Salem, Wagner floating back, we’re gonna be a gun side for 3-4 years

    And that is, by far and away, our weakest third on the ground. ?

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
