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?

Pretty sure all clubs try to keep injuries under wrap especially those that can be easily targetted in future games.

Lots of porkies are told by clubs but realistically there are no secrets in AFL.  News gets out one way or another if not to the media certainly to other clubs.  Everyone knows about Fritta's foot injury - it was mentioned in training reports and I'm sure lazy media read them.

Good players get physically targetted even if not injured.

Anyone else notice Petracca was slightly limping when he walked off at half time - favouring his left leg😟

anb really good through the middle

Finally picked up a holding here to ANB.  Wish they'd look at the Clarry match up a bit more.  Getting held off the ball quite a bit ... no frees

That’s his gait. By now it’s like saying Neitz used to wobble as he walked

Rivers great endeavour in general but a bit scatter gun with his kicking at times.  Bit of work to do there.

Sparrow's made about three rookie errors this quarter.  That last one on the mark costing us a goal.

Clarry out of the middle there taking on everyone ahead of him lol.  Nearly came off

We’ve dropped intensity here with some silly decision making and half hearted contest. Would be nice to put it away with the breeze then slow tempo in the last

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
