Bayley becomes a dad

Hopefully this serves as a reminder to some Melbourne fans that despite his poor form he's still a human being. Congrats to Fritta

  • Grapeviney changed the title to Bayley becomes a dad

And probably smells even better than downy 😀

You'd think, with that name, he'd have a wide part through the red.

Noah Fritsch ?

Ghosty does.

Congrats Fritta


Congratulations to Fritta and Natalie. A weeks personal leave may be in order. He will want to be near home and the hospital this week. Its a pretty magical (and demanding) time for a family.

It will also give him a chance to relieve the pressure and regroup.

Good on you Fritta, and seriously what better reminder that footy is just a game at the end of the day, this stuff is what life is really about...family! When all is said and done, the games have been won and lost, the most important thing is family.

Well done guys congrats on your beautiful baby boy, hopefully you both get some sleep!

He didn't deserve to be dropped anyway but wow he must have had a distraction or two recently with that coming up, absolutely huge life event right there :) Footy is great and all, but it really pales in comparison to having a kid.

Yes give him a couple of weeks off for paternity leave. He won't be missed and it might actually improve him.

Congrats to Fritta and Natalie.

Also a job well done for not having this baby in grand final week. Good planning, not that I think it matters.


Congratulations to Bayley and Natalie!

Wonderful news! ❤️💙

Hopefully a Father-Son selection for the Demons in over 18 years time. Fingers crossed! 🤞🏻

I hafta agree that if the pregnancy was testing it may have affected Bailey's form. I certainly thought the argument that he was playing badly because he wants to be traded was ridiculous.

Every single player’s partner must be pregnant and having a difficult one.

I'm sure this will inspire him.

Them nappies and all things baby, cost a royal fortune.

And let's all chip in and buy him a cot with very large posts on each end😀.

Congrats to Nat and Fritta the time has now come to pull the finger out Bayley.

Let's make the little one proud and start kicking some bags and string some consistent games together.

  • PODCAST: 2026 Season Preview

    The boys previewed the 2026 Season sharing their early impressions of the new coach, the new players, observations from preseason training, and what they've made of the new game style. They also look ahead to the season with their predictions, the players they expect to rise, their expectations for the team, and what they see as a realistic pass mark for Melbourne in 2026.

  • 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.
