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!

I think I'll leave it. 

'Went missing except for a goal kicked thanks to good positioning and forward craft and another goal snapped around the body from a pack, which were the decisive moments winning the game for us and keeping out finals hopes alive.'

Yep. 

We should be riding Fritsch's prospects of doing a full Petracca over the pre-season and into 2021, not making up feeble excuses to pick at him.

    he's a like for like for jack watts with worse kicking skills

    OMG trade Oliver & now Fritsch, who else Petracca, May, l await your next ridiculous comment 

    except Watts was a no1 draft pic & Fritsch rookie listed

    Watts never took an overhead mark in his life, Fritsch is our only classy player in the forward line

    Not a feeble argument at all. I reckon he is a player that lacks intensity and misses goals which incidently, would have put the game right out of reach. Until he remedies this ( and I'm not sure he ever will) he will continue to frustrate supporters. No one is of the trade table so to ridicule this is to minimise the opportunity to pick up a player that suits our needs better! That's my take! Or is he untradable???

    I reckon I would leave it, if you had any say in what players to delist we wouldn't have a team.

    I think we've worked out who we want to play in the forward half if Goodwin remains coach and it's not Melksham.

    I'd certainly listen to offers on Fritsch, but I think we need to seriously look at how to improve our forwardline function. 

    I know we didn't have Jackson for most of the year, but our forward half is somewhere between 9th and 14th. Get the forward line right and I think we'll become a much better team.

    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!

    Looking a little foolish now ...

    Well I would think that a two time Best and Fairest winner and All Australian makes him a tad better than good. But clearly thats your opinion and as I have so often said on this forum everyone has the right to an opinion!

    I would rather keep him, but his defensive intensity is the biggest frustration for me. Refuses to chase

    Would you entertain Fritsch for a power Key Forward?? Say Jesse Hogan?? or another?

    Strange how the top quality intercept/rebounding opponents he keeps being matched up on keep having comparatively quiet games.

    I know who I would rather keep between Weideman and Fritsch.  At least one of them actually marks the footy.....

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back at the MCG and have a massive challenge ahead of them as they take on Premiership contender the Gold Coast Suns. What do you want to see from the Dees today?

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
