Fritta. You never put your hand into a dog fight. I think it’s common knowledge, but common knowledge isn’t always common.

I’ll add PF. My version of common knowledge, is you consistently like to see the negative and stick in the boots to our club.

Yer well common knowledge aint always common, but thats just me!

    Get Culley in there. He can go forward.

    He also tackles and does more than point when we don’t have the ball.

    Ugh this is up there with trac doing his knee playing basketball

    1. Missing a whole season with a knee injury is not comparable to a minor hand injury that may not even cause Fritta to miss any games.

    2. Trac did his knee at training.

    According to Mrs Fritatta the media is doing what the media does best… sensationalising, blowing something up to way bigger than it is. Calling a couple of stitches surgery, okaaaaay.

    If he does miss, which I doubt he does, Melky can come in for him.

    This exactly - not ideal, but not the end of the world - Melksham at times was our most dangerous forward last season

    I've had similar. Hand gets bitten or scratched from an animal. Hand swells up as a reaction. Risk of infection so therefore very minor 'surgery' to clean the wound and potentially drain the build up.

    I wouldnt even call it surgery.

    Assuming its a similar thing of course. If a dog ripped into his hand might be different

    It wasn’t as serious as your experience, BAMF. It wasn’t even serious.

    Incidentally, in case anyone is wondering… neither dog was badly hurt. No rushing to the vet was needed as has been the case a couple of times in the past.

    Probably that skin glue… it works a treat and he will have plenty of recovery time, almost a full fortnight, given that our opening game is on the Sunday.

    Hopefully he's only out this week would be a massive blow if he wasn't to play. We are running out of players maybe Sharp will replace him.

    It's 2.52 am and I am awake I think but replacing Fritta with Sharp that is definately a nightmare. Give Paddy the spot, in fact almost anyone but Dull.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back at the MCG and have a massive challenge ahead of them as they take on Premiership contender the Gold Coast Suns. What do you want to see from the Dees today?

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
