Is Bayley Fritsch the best mid sized forward?

He’s coming into some very fine form. Filth will try and stop him, we could use him as a bit of a decoy next week.

A decoy for who?

 

He has the best goal sense in the league, his finishing is beyond elite. His left foot is also the best in the league imo.

Yep, his left foot is golden. He is like the Midas of goal kicking 

 

Was one of our best on Friday. He's become severely underrated by our supporters. He's already kicked 43 goals this year and he will likely end up with well over 50 if we go deep into the finals. 

Forwards like him don't grow on trees.

I reckon he's great and although he's never been AA and is rarely in medias minds when they talk about all Melbournes good players, he is one of the best mid forwards in the league.

The two others that maybe he could be compared to are Heaney from the Swans who is a star and Rosey from Port who is being talked about as AA and would have to be given a HFF if he was to make it even though he spends most of his time now in the midfield.

Oliver is a definite lock for AA, Petracca probably as well, then Max probably still holds the ruck but English is a chance (not much), I think Brayshaw and Fritsch are the next Dees players in? May is a chance, as is Langdon  and Kossie but they may miss and Lever won't make it this year.

Pretty much spot on I reckon. Oliver and Petracca are in, Max should be if he finishes the season strongly. Plenty of good defenders this year, but May has probably been of the pick of them, so should be a lock. Brayshaw a chance for a HBF/ bench spot.

Kossie and Lingers are a fair way off the pace I reckon. Viney might be a sneaky chance if they throw in a left-field selection on the bench, but there are plenty of more eye-catching mids out there.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
