When first came off, it looked they rest rapped his foot, maybe they got it wrong the first time?  He played great when he returned and sat out most of the last with the there jets :) on the bench.    Fingers crossed and we have 12 more days for treatment and recover. If (when) we win, he'll get another extended break before the next final to manage him.

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…

 

Fritta should have scans after every day of walking this week.


just as well he did come back on and proved he was ok. This site would be having a collective breakdown otherwise. @Jaded No More would be curled up in the foetal position.

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. 

If this same comment appeared in the Collingwood supporters' bulletin board, I wonder what they would make of it? Would they assume it had something to do with their, ahem, personal relationship with the prison system?

John Ralph, On the Couch just now implied there's concerns.....   FMD   

Viewing that exchange I think Ralph was saying “concerns” just to wind up Gary Lyon.

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

Poor old Paulsy broke her fibula in three places. 😭 Her dad (Grandpa Fritta) had a quad bike accident a few weeks ago and ended up with eight broken ribs. Her mum (Grandma Fritta) had a fall in Hobart when we played there recently and broke her wrist. When Pauline rang me from the hospital last week she said, “it’s all Bayley’s fault… he started this run of broken bones!” 😂

I'm more concerned with his DNA. Seems like he may have inherited a propensity for bone fractures.

I hope all the Fritsch family are recovering well.

Also, he said “concerns” but didn’t elaborate. What type of concerns, Ralph? Exactly WHO is concerned, Ralph? From where did you get your info, Ralph? 🙄

Keep in mind it's Ralph...   a headline writer.... wind up merchant.... take no serious heed of him ;)

Not from Mumma Frittata obviously!

The family is fine. 🙂 They heal at an otherworldly rate. They heal quickly and they heal well. Might have something to do with why they experience longevity, too. Pauline’s grandmother (Great-Grandma Fritta) passed away in December just gone. She was in her late 90s and was still getting around like a person 30 years younger.

She rides her bike while taking the dogs for a run every morning. She was crossing an oval when her puppy (the surprise birthday present from Fritta) got spooked and ran in front of the bike, and Pauline, trying to avoid the pup, came off the bike and landed awkwardly. ☹️

Are you suggesting Fritta will play until he is 50? 6000 goals and multiple Coleman's?

Great intel @WalkingCivilWar. Please keep us posted when results come through!

I’ve told Pauline I’d better be on speed dial. 😂

Yep. And he’ll play in the forward line alongside his own son and possibly his grandson as well.😂

Incidentally, his dad stopped playing footy only a few years ago. He’d possibly still be playing now only he quit when he equalled the games played record at Coldstream FC because the guy who held the record on his own had recently lost his daughter to cancer and Scott didn’t wanna take the title away from him. Now they share the title.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

  • CASEY: Footscray

    At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

  • PREGAME: Brisbane

    The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
