Congratulations to him.

When was the baby born?

Noah Leo Fritsch was born on Sunday the 6th of April at about midday. He was due on the 9th but decided to make his grand entrance to the world three days early. At birth he weighed 3.3 kg (7lb, 3oz) and was 49.5cm (19.4in) long. Mum and little bundle of joy both doing very well, in fact, so well that despite booking the hospital room for five days (ending today) Nat went home the day after giving birth.

Little Noah came close to having a living great-great grandmother because Bayley’s great grandmother passed away only a year or so ago. Longevity is a thing on Pauline’s side of the family.

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

    Not sure why there was a need to write this. I’m a massive fan of Fritsch and have been going into bat for him on here but comments like these I find amusing. Playing AFL and all that come with it is a two way street. I’d say his form slump has nothing to do with the birth of his son but more to do with football related issues. Are all our fwds partners expecting to give birth in coming weeks?

    As mentioned before hopefully we’ve got another father / son on our hands. Congratulations to Bayley and his partner, starting a family is an exciting time in one’s life.

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

      Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

      Following an injury-interrupted start to the season, McVee struggled to maintain the standard he established in 2025 as he pursued an expanded role within the team structure. He remained a firm fan favourite and the club had hoped to negotiate a new contract with the former rookie selection from Western Australia, whose partner, Lily Johnson, plays for Melbourne's AFLW side. Those hopes were dashed when he expressed his desire to return to his home state and play for Fremantle. Like all players who have worn the red and blue and are leaving this year, we wish him well in the future.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca  

      The superstar Demon midfielder made a successful return to the fold after his devastating injury last year and the subsequent fallout from the treatment he received, during which time he sought to depart the club. Petracca's professionalism and strong play, both in the midfield and up forward, were outstanding and resulted in him being runner-up in the club's best and fairest count. However, early this week, the club's new CEO, Paul Guerra, confirmed that the under-contract Petracca has again requested a trade, adding that he would only be allowed to leave for a “quality offer that turns our head". No doubt some Demon heads are already spinning.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #6 Caleb Windsor 

      The former first-round draft selection experienced an average second season, marked by participation in several VFL games, as well as three matches in which he was subbed out. He is nevertheless, a highly regarded talent capable of playing on the wing or behind the ball, with additional aspirations of developing into a centre square midfielder over time.

      The Demon stalwart surpassed the number of his father's appearances for the club towards the end of the season. As he approaches his thirties, his pace is inevitably slowing, and he is likely to explore alternative opportunities beyond the team's midfield.
