Fritsch sent for scans too

I believe that Fritta has had ongoing issues with his foot stemming from a preseason training foot stomping mishap.

Training right next to Olympic Park Sports Medicine Centre, convenient for a scan but also unlucky if media are lurking. Getting us all worked up.

Treatment probably isn’t the right word. It’s routine scans and such to make sure the foot is sufficiently healed. It’s purely precautionary. Totally nothing to see here.

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.

If we couldnt get him good to go for much of the pre season why do you think resting him now for a couple of weeks will make a miraculous recovery?

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.

the resting time was North, Eagles and Hawthorn... not one unforced change. We even took Gawn to WA while injured so he could sit in the box.

Okay I know nothing about high performance management but we seem to take the same approach. Winter is coming as they said............

The accidental foot stomping is the sole source of the issue. There’s been no subsequent injuries or re-injuries. Feet take longer to heal.

Thank you for clearing that up for me...it had lived as a question mark in some dark MFCSS part of my mind!

Yeah 100% accidental. The teammate is understandably very sorry it happened but these things are liable to happen when training is taken so seriously, which is what you wanna see. So that’s one question mark you can erase from the MFCSS part of your mind. One down, a bazillion to go. Amirite 😁

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

I thought his work against Port was great especially further up the ground when we couldn't find a link between the 50s

Is it getting better at least?

Harry Petty had his foot stomped on too. No doubt, at some point during 2025, he’ll be sent in for routine scans as a precaution and the news will cause pandemonium on Demonland.

Definitely. And ahead of time. He has this amazing ability to heal really well and really early. Runs in their family apparently.

Fritta is technically still in rehab. He has to follow all the rehab protocols eg. Zero alcohol, modified training. It’s just that he can play while rehabbing since it’s not one size fits all.

Pretty much. I think I’m on 99% used. In case you haven’t noticed, I talk a lot. 🤭

My foot is healing really slowly. Apparently it’s not the fracture that’s the issue, it’s the bone bruising and soft tissue damage. Fritta’s foot is likely a different kettle of fish. After all, he didn’t sustain his injury by running on uneven ground in platform sandals while drunk. 😁

Was it Viney Or Tmac?

Yep 😰 ....better than it used to be ...but still definitely certifiable.

Nobody said miraculous recovery, nice strawman though.

Don't think its unreasonable to suggest that time off legs would be beneficial for someone with a foot injury, particularly with the loads and forces that go through it during high intensty sport.

I don't know the details of his injury and perhaps he isn't at risk of exacerbating it, hence why I said it could be a dumb suggestion. And now that it's been reported on here that it's a routine check up, and not an exacerbation or new injury, we can look forward to him playing.
