If Fritta is out, why wouldn't they play him?

Maybe they wanted four full quarters into him? Dwayne said he played well

 

with the immobile Ben Brown we look too tall with Gawn and Grundy. 

JVR should be looked at to come in for BB

    Yep.  Had to be one.  Gawn was tackled during a marking contest prior to that with no free also.

    That was a ridiculous miss by the umpires. Nankervis is getting frustrated and lining up Max whenever he can.

    Too tall.

    JVR has to earn a game over T Mc and BBB.

    Brown’s game has been harshly judged, couple of costly drops but mostly playing his role.

    I had the same issue but it could have been because my air-con has decided to suddenly trip the circuit breaker 

    The manhandling of Gawn continues with zero consequences

    We need to keep control of the game.

    Tempo footy, no momentum changes.

    Oh yea, no injuries.

    Yeah, why can't he be best on ground like every other Melbourne player?

    Great to see the bloody hypocrites at AFL HQ continuing to say the head is sacrosanct - yet Max gets punched and elbowed at every marking contest without any penalty.  
    Sickening hypocrisy.

    I’m pretty sure we need to control risk of injuries given the heat and that the season starts in 2 weeks. 
    The final score is rather unimportant. 
     

    Prestia hurt his shoulder. I rather not see Oliver or Trac do the same.

    If it happened it would be picked up by cameras and blokes would be getting rubbed out. Simple really....

    It doesn't happen because no one is going out there deliberately stomping on other players foot. 

    To think that the club won't release information regarding Bayleys foot because it might instigate opposition players deliberately stepping on his foot is plain laughable. 

    My last comment on this. It's game day mode for me now.

    It might be YOUR last comment on this. It’s not mine. I can tell you with full confidence that one of the reasons the Club is keeping Fritta’s injury details quiet is to prevent opposition players from targeting him. As I mentioned before, Clarrie told me HIMSELF that this happens. I’m inclined to believe Clarrie. Aren’t you?

    JVRs pretty good on second and third efforts at ground level too though. I'd argue he's a better straight swap for Fritta than TMAC or BB if he had to come in.

    Updated my post, no injuries. 

    Last season we would let the opposition back in the game.

    I am hoping we have changed this year.

    Players still get targeted, no doubt about it. 
    it now must be done very discreetly….

    Sure, but the 2 talls are in regardless of Fritsch.

    Theyve gone with Chandler and Laurie in Fritsch’s roles. Losing some height but getting more mobility

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
