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.

    • PREGAME: Fremantle

      After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
