    Agree.

    Lazy, inaccurate, unaccountable and timid.

    One of the most frustrating players on our list

    Ridiculous suggestion. I don't see why he's the whipping boy, at least he gets us goals. I'd rather see Brayshaw put on the trade table.

    If he could kick straight hed be a damn good player

    Agreed. Plenty to work with. Unlike others on the list.

    Would be like watching Howe go to Collingwood again.

    He's just the type of player that needs to kick a crunch goal in a final and misses. He does this far too often!

    He’s taken about five marks in the forward 50. Yes, his kicking his crap but that can be changed.

    Had four shots at goal in a half and has kept one of their most dominant players (Ridley) to just 7 touches so far.

    Think I'd rather keep him.

    To be fair I thought you started this thread...but there you go, at least you got in there with something kinda dumb.

    Last week did a good job on Haynes. Today beating an AA candidate in Ridley.

    This isn't a poor player whose goalkicking is the icing on the [censored] cake, he's just goalkicking away from being a B+ to A grader.

    Just try and get him to kick properly.

    He plays his team role which pushes him out to boundary at fairly long range. It's annoying that he misses a lot of shots but it's not abnormal for kicks from such positions. He also is dragging defenders wide which is giving Weid and others some space and opportunities closer to goal. He's playing a tactically important role and without doubt sacrificing the 'appearances' of his own game. 

    If you'd rather a bomb to nothing and instant rebound, instead of a mark and difficult shot on goal, sure, I see why you have a problem with Fritsch.

    Ffs why do we even bother responding to this drunk nuffy snarking?

    He's so close to being a damaging player, its all mental in front of the sticks with Bayley.

    This is nearly word for word what I was going to write. 

    I don’t think people are understanding his role. He was great last week in stopping Haynes’ intercepts and his first half against Ridley has bee great as Ridley has been super this year and will probably win the bombers B and F.

    His kicking for goal usually look straight they just go towards 11 or 1 o’clock. He really needs to sort this as it would elevate him to another level.

    His game today and last week has been very good

    Okay fine. I’ll bite.

    Yes his radar has been off but that is very correctable. Trac’s goalkicking was lamentable not long ago. Doesn’t look like missing these days. It is largely between the ears.

    But the main argument against is what would a club cough up for Fritsch? He’s not exactly a name player. He is worth FAR more to us than what we’d get for him at the trade table.

    How many of our players are capable of 7 shots on goal?    Yes hes kicking has been off and ended up with 22.24 but hes a very important player for 2021

    Oh by the way he won our goalkicking

    IMO Would still trade him, went missing in the third and most of last except for a gimme goal from 15 out then a crumb. Thats my opinion take it or leave it!

    Sir, you cannot be serious, there are many ahead of Fritter in the possible trades queue.

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

    • CASEY: Northern Bullants

      The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

    • GAMEDAY: Sydney

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?

    • NON-MFC: Round 11

      Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.
