Fritsch Raring to Go

I posted on here last year that the jury was out for Fritta (in my opinion).  I see all the qualities that everyone has listed above.  But, I'm going to ask the jury to wait until the end of 2019 before delivering their verdict.  He will get extra attention this year, so I'll be interested to see how he handles that.  In some ways I'd like to see him lock down a position this year, but in many ways, the fact that he hasn't is a strength too.

FWI, I don't mind being on my own in the minority with this view!  I haven't dismissed him - how could I?  But I'm still unsure how long his career will be.

Feast away.

 

I agree that Fritta might get extra attention this year Chazz, but we have such a strong list that opposition teams won't be able to put extra time into everyone!  Barring injury, I'd be surprised if Fritta doesn't play every game.  I see him primarily as a wingman,  but one who has proven flexibility to do well in a variety of positions.  That's where his versatility will really come into its own.

I thought the opposite, I thought his game went down after they put him back, he is not a very good defender positioning wise and I thought we were better with him on a wing.

I agree. Definitely not as effective in the backline. Looking forward to seeing him play on the wing or up forward.

Fritta remains focused when under pressure.  This is why I think he will be fine and overcome extra attention.

He knows he can be decoy, or whatever he needs to do.   I see him a s a team man first and foremost.   He also can be a link man in the middle of a play.   Giving off with quick hands.

We are building talent across the list,  and thankfully went young last draft period.  To continue with the next wave to come thru.

needs to be played forward, not back. Put a premium on goal kicking accuracy instead of having petracca blaze away

Agree. I see Bayley as a hff or fp, not a defender.

  • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

    As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
