Is Fritsch playing wing or HB? 🙃🙃

Wherever he is, he's probably jogging and not putting any pressure on his opponent

    The question is.... Is Fritsch PLAYING ? 

     

    is this like 2019 where we realised we needed to learn something new and dealt with the results for the bigger picture or is this like the end of the line for this list or is this something else I am not wise enough to see

    I've checked out for 2024, I'll be heading to the footy as a release from work and for something to do now, not in the hope it's going to lead to any sort of glory at seasons end.


    Nah…this isn’t an outlier..this is a problem! A coaching issue about structure and matchup. We you get it right against us, we hand you the game. We absolutely implode. The body language is as bad as I’ve seen

    How about Confidence, Running-legs, Jolt-up-the-wazoo, JVR, Lever (after the bye), Laurie, Billings, Kolt, Hore (post-bye), Billings, Seston, Jeffo & AMW?!?!?!

    Nick-off - your pain doesn’t get abated by being sarcastically-dissident when it’s hailing! You’re better than that I’m sure of it mate. If it happens again next week, and after bye, sure I’ll worry the years a write-off — But then I’ll trust JT and Goody whom won is a FLAG for the first time since 1964!!!!!!

    Simon is that you? Is this your burner account? Or our president perhaps..🤔

    Why is a Coleman medal chance playing on the full back line?

    What is a top 4 team doing 100 points down?

    If you actually understand footy and know what to look for this isn't surprising. 

    List has been monumentally mismanaged since the flag and standards have been poor for a while now. 

    Club is arrogant, stubborn and to boot, dumb. We play players through injury, we don't reward form, we do reward mediocrity and the list management team have made a number of very soft calls. 

    All these little things add up. 

    21 is all we're seeing folks. I hate it and it makes me sad. 

    This ^^^^^ ....  😥

    The answer   is in the question

    Think about it ;)

    Really does boggle the mind how a team that can't score have put 130+ points on us 


    The issue now is that Goodwin will stick with his nothing game plan which will get a few wins based more on individual brilliance. We will then really bottom out when the retirements kick in. Tassie will be coming in at this time and get all the draft picks and free agent talent leaving us to maintain our status quo of a few years back. Goodwin will then get the sack but it will be 7 years too late.

    The Petty forward experiment is over!

    The Petracca half forward experiment is over!

    The Disco forward experiment is over!

    The Chandler half forward role is over!

    The no backup ruck for Max tactic is over!

    Other then reading this complete and utter dribble what example of this club has proven to you they can be trusted other then bring knocked out in straight sets 2 years in a row.

    Get rid of the rosy red and blue glasses FCS, reality has hit us smack bang between the eyes today.

    Hahahaha you’re surely kidding! Kick 5% straighter and we beat the pies you silly bugger! What an overtly ignorant comment.. but I feel your pain, It’s shizen it really is.. but it is also a one-off for the last 4yrs & that in-and-of-itself is a statement!

    I mean — Darcy looking like Gawns daddy is actually real you think is it? Amiss is far too good for May is he? Come on bud, you know it’s silly! 
     

    This comp is just so even, things are always on knife-edge and if you’re off, you get belted!!! Tigers can barely field a side that’s above VFL quality, then lost their one decent player & yet if not for even more inj and some poor conversion they’d of been 60+ ahead of Geelong at the cattery — Such is footy! But why do you get to cheer the wins when you can’t take ONE belting? Tell me 

    I’m at the game and my feeling is one of sadness as our premiership window has just been closed. Several players not up to AFL standard and others who today have simply given up. This will be a defeat of 100 points by a team not even in the 8. Sorry folks, we are done and dusted.

    A good team comes out and wins the last quarter. 
    We look like we’ve come out with all the enthusiasm of a contestant in a children’s pageant. 

    Those little pageant girls are savages, they’d have a crack

    FFS you are talking absolute Rubbish 

    You are putting this down to Loading 

    That’s one of our problems, Arrogance. 
     

    We have let A Grade Players walk and they have been replaced by below average discards…

    That’s the word, Arrogance.

    Like an Elephant the room since post 2021.

    One very small positive is, the ‘True Believers’ might now consider taking their One Eyed Blinker off.

    • CASEY: Geelong

      There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
