Bayley Fritsch was also sent for a scan on Monday, with the Demons yet to confirm whether the important forward is battling an injury concern.

 

surely if he is being sent for scans, there4 is a concern of some sort......   any ideas what may be wrong ??

    He's had foot problems all year hasn't he? Seemed OK vs Port but I guess don't know how he's pulled up.

    Sounds like he’s been carrying something or the same issue that caused him to miss the first few rounds. He’s nowhere near at his best and we desperately need him to be. Fingers crossed he’s ok 👍🏻

    At a guess it'll be the same periodical scans that T-Mac gets to monitor his ongoing issues. There will always be a vulture posted outside where they get them done lest there be a headline to write.

    Playing injured for majority of the season and still well on his way to a 45 goal a season.

    This might be a dumb idea, but this could be a good time to rest him until after the bye and get him good to go for the back half of the season. We need him at his best.

    We have 4 incredibly difficult and important games coming up. This is not the time to rest our best goal kicker.

    Hence it could be dumb, but we didn't manage our players well last year and it left us limping into the finals and out in straight sets.

    We are not sitting 10-0 this year. We need to secure at least two of the next four wins or we may not even make top 4.

    Paging @WalkingCivilWar for the latest

    I don’t know why he was sent for scans. I could find out but I’d rather not. If I’m told I can’t say anything anyways.

    Pretty sure WCW and Fritchybusiness have known about this for a while now.

    Keeping mum though

    Obviously no updates on Fritta at 11.27pm?

    Howsabout an update at 12:12am? 😁There’s nothing to be concerned about. No new injury. The scans are scheduled ahead of time and at regular intervals. It’s part of his treatment.

    This is why I lured you into this thread. I knew you would give us something!

     Our thanks to Mrs Fritta

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      It’s late February. Two teams widely predicted to finish near the foot of the AFL table in 2026 face off against each other in sweltering 30-degree heat deep in outer suburbia in a match simulation with fresh new faces and uneven team numbers. There are no nearby sheep stations on offer; the result promises nothing more than bragging rights for the winner. Nevertheless, the loser appears hopelessly adrift, whereas the other seems to have found its footing after a couple of years of struggle – perhaps a hint at bigger things to come?
