Fritta 7-8 weeks according to club. TMac 4-6. Thatโ€™s our 2 best forwards from the last 5 years.

Time to get inventive.

Agree Thbt JVR certainly earnt a return to the seniors but these injuries are really going to test our depth as we need a bit of height against the Saints and Lions letโ€™s see just how inventive the Footy department can be.!!

ย 

May forward?

Petty Full back

Tomlinson as the third tall back

Forward line of

Pickett ย May ย Smith

Petracca Van Rooyen ย Woewodinย 

Viney and Oliver on ball

Ben Brown on the benchย

Everything is an opportunity. JVR, and Brown will be well served by Marvel. Youโ€™d also think we might back Tomlinson in and play Petty forward if needed too. Oddly itโ€™s a good time for us to be playing on a guaranteed dry deck. Get some confidence back in our skills.ย

Was thinking about May forward. Becoming a little sloppy below his knees and might be a good change to have some half decent leadership forward.

Wiling to bet this was an injury for Fritsch just waiting to happen and he was being managed with it from the start of the season.

He has definitely been carrying something , we knew it was stood on already in pre season and the load of playing footy was probably slowing down recovery.ย 
ย 

They took a chance on him getting through the season and it didnโ€™t pay off. Canโ€™t really blame them. Think May Iโ€™m the 2021 GF. You win some and lose some.ย

Fritsch 7-8 weeks all going well.

All will go well, probably better and sooner than expected. The surgery went as well as was hoped for and Fritta has this incredible healing ability. It runs in their family. Heโ€™s in really good spirits and thatโ€™s always a good thing.ย He should be ready for finals.

Incidentally, he did what I did in December at our AFLW B&F... Rolled his left ankle which caused a small fracture in a bone in his foot. Thatโ€™s ย where the similarity ends. He didnโ€™t do it running in platform sandals on uneven ground while drunk, and Iโ€™m not an elite AFL footballer. ๐Ÿ˜

So itโ€™s NOT the dreaded navicular or lisfranc?ย

Neither. Itโ€™s a very small fracture in a very small bone. The rolling of his ankle caused it. The fact that itโ€™s the same foot that was stomped on before round one doesnโ€™t have any bearing on this one.ย

Well thank god for that! I was prepared for the worst.ย 

Send him our best wishes!ย 
ย 

By the way, how close are you with Claytonโ€™s mum? Can you tell her that I can no longer live without Clarry and he has to come back and play please? ๐Ÿ˜‚

Edited by Jaded No More

I think Petty needs to go forward again, with JVR and possibly Brown. Do they all fit? The Dogs have Ugle, Naughton and Lobb. Tomlinson back in to defence. Whatever the club decides, they need to stick with it hoping it will gel come September

Will definitely send everyoneโ€™s best wishes, the family really does appreciate it. ๐Ÿ’–

As for Clarryโ€ฆ cheeky bugger never thinks of telling his mum anything. She finds out everything about him by watching the news, just like the rest of us. ๐Ÿคฃ

Iโ€™m just going by what has been said here and the fact that a navicular or lisfranc would require a much longer recovery than 7-8 weeks.ย 
I wonder where @Webber is. He probably knows more than us.ย

Who said it isnโ€™t an important bone? I know I didnโ€™t. I said it was a very small bone; small as in physical size, not as in importance.

Besides, Iโ€™m sure every bone in oneโ€™s foot is important. You get a tiny fracture in one of them and theyโ€™ll remind you of how important they are with every step you take. ๐Ÿ˜ญย 

Hi Guys

I missed the game on GWS as I was working. How bad is Fritsch injury and how long do we expect him out for?

We love Fritta and we love you @WalkingCivilWar!

What's this nonsense on Twitter and AFL Central about Clarry?

Clarry wonโ€™t play this weekย

  • 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 forecastโ€”20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze โ€” 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 Kateโ€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodโ€™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 isnโ€™t a standard conceptโ€”itโ€™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. ย We filled our boots with percentage โ€” now a whopping 520.7% โ€” and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourneโ€™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 wasnโ€™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 ย six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his teamโ€™s unfulfilled potential rang true โ€ฆ well, almost.ย
