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

What sort of concern?

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

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.

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.

Plates and screws? Sounds like a cop show you might watch WCW after dinner!!🤣

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to
