Plates in feet are rarely "minor" .... perhaps a little less so if it is an ankle.

So no inside leaks as to which it is?   

Is it the same foot that kept him out at the start of the season? 😠

Explain this then.

As a physio myself, I know the feeling of this sort of stuff.    Sometimes you have a minor niggle that just keeps on keeping on. From the outside a minor hammy like that looks like a standard

Physio here btw. I'll leave you with some literature to review.  Unfortunately, it's quite the opposite. We know from the research that athletes have a 3 fold higher risk (3.6x) of future hamstri

She’s already posted yesterday that he’s going for surgery today and it’s serious but potentially not season ending. 

I must have missed it, cheers @Jaded No More

'potentially not season ending' is something as I was bracing myself for 'potentially career threatening'.

Me too, but @WalkingCivilWar said it might not be season ending, which means it's definitely not career threatening.

Although it might be the sort of injury that hampers him for a long time to come, especially if it's foot related, which we know is a persistent [censored].

That's what I'm thinking. Like it could be something you look back to and notice how he moved differently before it. Hope not, all we can do is hope not.

Sounds like syndesmosis

They insert a plate for syndesmosis? 

My understanding, perhaps flawed, is that a syndesmosis injury gets screwed, not plated.

Sorry I missed that part.

Rough guess and say Navicular.

OMFG these diagnosis are getting worse and worse.

Navicular is 12 months is it not? How could he possibly play again this year if it's a navicular?

I am going to wait for a real update before I hyperventilate. 

No doubt the club's injury report will be "foot - TBC"

I wish the club would understand how much their supporters stress about these sorts of things.

Not to give us any sort of update three days out from the incident is pretty poor communication back to those that give up their hard earned for this football club.

Put him in cotton wool and get him ready for next year.

Move Kozzy into his role and give the kid a role to play as he is as lost as the city of Atlantis.

There are many other factors we need to get right to win a flag other than Fritta. He won’t be the difference either way and that foot hasn’t been right all year.

Ouch. Fritsch is done if it’s needing a plate. He’s the only bloke who can kick straight!!

Yep..literally the only player we have who can kick straight consistently. FML. 5.15 might look like the good old days soon.  he's going to be a massive loss.

a thought out of left field

I wonder how disco would go up forward. He's just languishing in the magoos because our back spots are so tight.

he's a great kick, mark and interceptor. If he played like a defender in the backline, he'd just have to mark, turn around a and kick goals - lol

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
