PODCAST: Kade Chandler Interview

Featured Replies

Fantastic interview with Kade Andy. We are very blessed to have such well spoken and well presented guys at our club. Helps that they can play too.

 

Great interview Andy. Really enjoyed every minute of it. Chin kept his goal a game average too.

 

Thoroughly enjoyable interview.

Would not mind hearing at some stage from a member of MFC staff on how they manage the various player tiers on life/jobs after football.

One of the pluses Fritsch had by joining as a 21 year old is that he's now a qualified electrician with his own business. I have always been surprised that players with long term injuries (ACL etc) are not encouraged to take a mental break from the football environment and engage in outside activities while maintaining fitness. Similarly will we ever see senior players at say age 28 taking a year off in an effort to extend/improve their playing career.

Fine young man. Well spoken.
  Marginal player.  Needs to lift.   

That's a very strange take 

A marginal player? 

I presume by that you mean not quite best 22 and on the edge of being out of the team?

Apart from your personal assessment of his game, what evidence would you point to support that opinion?

If he was a marginal player wouldn't he be in and out of the side, often an emergency and/or frequently the starting sub or subbed off ?

Off the top of my head I can't recall when he was last used as a sub, or taken off and becoming the sub for that matter.

When was the last time he was not in our starting 22 and/or dropped?

Half way through last season?

I'd guess chin has been a best 22 lock for at least the last 22 games we've played.

Laurie could be described as 'marginal'.

Can't see how Chandler could be considered marginal.


What an impressive young man. Really enjoyed the interview.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    It’s late February. Two teams widely predicted to finish near the foot of the AFL table in 2026 face off against each other in sweltering 30-degree heat deep in outer suburbia in a match simulation with fresh new faces and uneven team numbers. There are no nearby sheep stations on offer; the result promises nothing more than bragging rights for the winner. Nevertheless, the loser appears hopelessly adrift, whereas the other seems to have found its footing after a couple of years of struggle – perhaps a hint at bigger things to come?

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    It was only a preseason match but the new look Demons spearheaded by new coach Steven King looked impressive as they put on a clinic against perennial cellar-dwellers North Melbourne as they cruised to an 80 point victory at Casey Fields.
