Bayley Fritsch Sent for Scans

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? 🙄

    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?

    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.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.
