Good to see,    gets the ball so well,  wish he could kick the goals more consistently.   

 

Oh for a Goal Kicking or forward coach who can fix things.  Do we have one ?

 

Good signing and 2 year deal fair length. Hard match up who will only get better with more preseasons and games.  Offers good positional flexibility which will become more important as list sizes reduce in coming years. 

great news 

now we need some Goals Fritta


He needs to toss out whatever Stafford tried to teach him and do his own thing moving forward. 
Such a pure striker of the ball but this year his overall accuracy went down the toilet. 
 

Great news to have him for another two.

Sometimes I think with all these line coaches trying to justify their existence confuse players and they reduce what made them good in the first place. 

Very skillful and only 24 has plenty of upside .  Imo his best position is in the forward line and just needs to nail the gettable goals and he can become a 40 to 50 plus goal kicker.  That is a great signing.     Well done Fritta.

      He just retired ......... Played some games with Port Adelaide.           J W, Does that ring a bell?


Very happy. Had he kicked straight this year we would be in the finals.

Goals win games. Why wouldn’t a previous sharpshooter who had a great kicking technique be a top priority over summer. The kicking technique of some of today’s footballers is staggering.


Good news.
 

I believe he signed in the wrong place twice before finally slotting his signature in the right spot.  ????

but the media release says he “plays with integrity “. (Wtf)

Let’s face it if had of kicked straight this year he would be talked about just behind Petracca, Oliver, May and Gawn. Bailey has some freakish qualities and has more shots for goal than a mid sized forward should have.  
Doesn’t need a kicking coach, just needs to sort his head and he will be in All Australian contention 

I would have re-signed him too, but a few saying 'he will only get better', well, he's only gotten worse as of late. Hope he can get his set shot routine working, work on his contest side/tackling and I hope we get a forward coach who can use him in a more productive manner. Why would a left footer, constantly lead to the wrong pocket? With added forward craft from a good forward coach, he'll hopefully have a greater chance of improving his conversion.

I watched an under 15's game a few years ago and one team had bloody line coaches.

Listened to the coach addresses at each break and walked away in disbelief how they expected 14 year old kids to understand the rubbish they we talking.

Just another example of how the AFL is infiltrating and in my opinion negatively influencing junior footy.

no wonder so many of the draftees cant kick!


It’s great that he has decided to continue playing footy with us while still filming episodes of Beavis and Butthead

The stats would indicate you’re correct.

Only Hawkins, Dixon, Josh Kennedy, Tom Lynch, Charlie Cameron, Papley and Ben King had more scoring shots on goal than Fritsch.

He kicked 37.28 in his first 2 seasons so you’d expect his accuracy to improve next year.

Arguably a more important signing than Viney given his age profile, upside, dearth of forward options and the potential  headaches he poses for the opposition.

This is the most concerning observation of all. 

Good on you Dee's another quality kid that will be part of our rise up the ladder in 2021 and thanks for the vote of confidence Bayley.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
