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

    Does it matter who wins Aints v Blueboys ?

    Its not on the MFC grid. Dont care really.

    Hard physical contest would be nice though.

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

    They will get a win next week against Eagles.

    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.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
