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.

This is great news!

Even off the pitch good old Bailey was working the body under the high balls and hitting the target last July

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.
