I've seen a fair bit of commentary on Demonland that says Fritta can't play a defensive role.

When we beat Collingwood in 2023 King's Birthday, he played the Melksham defensive role on Moore and kicked 3, and was the most dominant forward on the ground.

That should be the model for his role today.

    [censored] it all. I was up ‘til 1am making a ‘We Love You Claz’ sign and I’ve bloody left it at home. I even bought a big canvas on a frame last night after banner-making and lugged the stoopid thing home on two trains and a bus (lightweight but unwieldy), got more red and blue poster paint on my kitchen table and my clothes than on the canvas and now I’ve gone and left it at home. Damn.

    Saw an insta post about the “wizards”.

    Sorry, but Watson is not a pimple on Jeff Farmers butt cheek in comparison.

    To all the midfielders including Kozzie, please provide some protection to Max Gawn, because Hawthorn are going to crash into him. I believe we can win today even without Melksham and Viney.

    It's time for a good game from Kolt. Another low contribution game tomorrow and he forfeits his spot.

    sums up being a melbourne fan

    Looking forward to heading in soon for today’s match, as long as we have a real go I’ll be happy….Hawks are a talented side with a lot of weapons that move the ball really quickly, not an easy assignment but hopefully we can stay with them.

    Howesy kept out of Casey team as a carryover player. AJ and Bill both playing for Casey.

    aj looks wobbly

    A lot more people posting on game day thread this week.

    Three wins has renewed our confidence.

    But it will be a tough game and likely if we win,a season definer.

    Hopefully Jvr goes berserk and even kicks a pile of goals.

    Here's hoping.

    21 degrees today. Where else would you rather be than sitting in the Colosseum.

    Not confident but today will give us an indication of where we are at.

    Viney a very massive loss though.

    Damn auto correct!


     

    Tbh i think we'll be lucky to get within 5/6 goals of the Sqawkers. Could be wrong. Think we'll actually miss Viney shutting down someone today. Someone else will need to do that role. Too many not giving Hawthorn due credit imho

    Dees need to be awake early . Don't want to get jumped as that's catchup footy.... tiring and all too often futile.

    Like to see Fritter get jiggy. Be handy should Clarry have a blinder to silence his 'fan club' in the media. Roo needs to hang on to a few and find the sticks otherwise I'm not sure why he's back in tttt.

    Just got to make a fist of it Dees.

    Go us !!

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

    • CASEY: Northern Bullants

      The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

    • GAMEDAY: Sydney

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?

    • NON-MFC: Round 11

      Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.
