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.

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

    Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
