    I must admit I was judging all you biased fools who thought there was nothing in it on Sunday. I thought it was clearly a week. I’ll let myself out.

    Great news. A few on here seemed to want Frittata suspended. Fail.

    he did genuinely do damage 

    Not much damage as the North player returned to the field and played out the match after it was deemed by their medical staff that a concussion test was not warranted.

    I think what has got him off is precedence rather than it being the “right thing”. I actually personally think high fend offs should be something really looked at but in this case they have judged him against what has been done in recent times which is fair. Can’t have one rule for one club and another rule for another club.

    I actually also think they should make a rule that says repeated infringements that get you a fine will automatically give you a one week suspension. This obviously doesn’t apply to Fritta but there are snipers out there that just seem to constantly skirt the edges of suspensions. 

    Right now just happy to have Fritta back in the team!

    Told ya! Anderson pointed out quite early that Fritsch's elbow was helped upwards when it met Powell's elbow: Fritsch had no intention to hurt him.

    Yep. Was always worth challenging 

    Well done MFC. We just learnt to put a line in the sand. 
    Many people will disagree with this decision 

    But we may win our 8th game for the year. 
     

    Their was no concussion, both players can play next weekend

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
