6 weekends has him returning for prelim final. 

And it's a fracture in his knee, so my gut says he'll struggle to keep his fitness loads up during that time. For a first year player, that could be quite a drop off.

Im concerned about Fritsch coming straight into finals without a match type run around. This is very worrying for the Pies as he has by far been their most important player this year (leading disposals, meters gained, score involvements, and 5th for goals amongst other stats).

 

Most of the time the time frame includes getting them match fit or as close as you can, I heard somewhere Daicos is looking at 4 weeks on the couch then can start training again

    Saints look way too tough for Carlton and Curnow is having a ballroom bruiser of a day.

    First goal to the death riders. Freo need to win by 80 points to climb up one spot.

    Glad I tipped a draw

    Does it matter who wins Aints v Blueboys ?

    Its not on the MFC grid. Dont care really.

    Hard physical contest would be nice though.

    Following the Freo game with the live ladder is painful

    Happy with Freo losing but we need a high scoring shoot out

    I feel like I'm watching a game to see if we play finals.

    Really if we drew level in the first against North today we could have had a ten goal win. 

    Sick of playing in Tassie.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG to take on the High Flying Hawks on Saturday Afternoon. Hawthorn will be aiming to consolidate a position in the Top 4 whilst the Dees will be looking to take a scalp and make it four wins in a row. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
