    Seriously, why are people saying that they have sources on a player's medical condition?

    If Fritta has the same mobility as he did when he came back on the ground, I'd play him regardless of the diagnosis.

    His job is to sensationalize things, wouldn't be taking that as a reason to be concerned

    Dee’s won’t say anything. He’ll either play or he won’t. I can’t see him missing but if WCW doesn’t make a call tonight then give me the number and I will.

    Questions must be asked why we put him back on the ground in a dead rubber.

    Understand that the scan is precautionary but shouldn't the first precaution have been not to make it worse.

    So very Melbourne. FMD.

    If he's damaged it, then it's season over anyway with only 5 weeks to go

    So really it's to test out if he's OK, or prove he's not under match conditions

    Seems like he's OK or damage is tollerable under match conditions

    Routine scan. Would’ve been pre-scheduled for this morning regardless of how he got on yesterday. They scanned it to check everything: plates, screws etc.

    of course there'd be "concerns"

    even if there was the slightest of concerns, then after what happened on sunday you'd be negligent if you didn't send him off for precautionary scans

    the way he came back on and played is cause to be optimistic

    lets just wait and see. even if cleared on the scans they can still be very helpful to the physios to help in his normal post game recovery treatments.

    He limped off in pain having hurt the foot he'd broken 7 weeks ago

    He'd be having a scan post game because of whatever happened in the game, regardless of any prior plans

    In that case, he definitely plays, alternating in the ruck with Max, chop out for Maysie and kicking the lazy six from the hotdog stand.

    No, he was having the scan regardless.

    Are we talking about Fritta's foot or Ralph's brain @WalkingCivilWar?

    Seriously, every single AFL Player should have foot scans after every game. 
    The running stress and directional changes within a match are off the charts 

    Bailey was very chirpy and positive when interviewed in the rooms after the match, so it can’t be too bad, unless he woke up this morning with a reaction…

    I trust in WCW's intel.  Mitch Cleary ain't best friends with Momma Fritsch!

    He could of got things confused with Momma Fritsch's fracture.

    After his third quarter painful tippy toe through the tulips jaunt he moved freely all over the ground. Kicked a 50 metre goal and two sublime snaps. I’ll wait for the bad news from the club if any before I panic. If the news is bad I have bottle of Rivers Royale Kill Devil to end the misery.

    Steven May played and played well in a GF with a significant tear in his hamstring. Fritta came back on and tore the game open.

    I don’t care what the scan says, he’s good to go in the QF.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
