WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - CHRISTIAN PETRACCA

Featured Replies

Thats why we are experts- I was completely underwhelmed by his kicking - that's because I saw a different video package. If you watch the package early on in this thread you will be unimpressed.

Well..I wasnt overly enamoured with Benny Boys highlights either but Port fans are spitting chips and our FD is grinning so what the do I know :) ( from just watching vids that is..lol )

I saw some good kicking and some very decent tackling ( actuallu clever tackling ) in and amongst Petyraccas reels.

Id be pretty happy if it was he and Brayshaw called out..having said that the gods will probably arrange something entirely different !!..as they do :mellow:

I'll be happy when in the near future we say "geez - wasn't he a good draft pick" ( like I am saying about Tyson). Until that time I won't get excited by any name called out.

a few months ago I said if the MFC get Petracca we can use phrases like

Watch out for the Petraccattack

Just reminding everyone I made up that word and I own the copyright to it

I wouldn't worry, I think you're copyright is very safe.

They are Petrified.

Are we going with Braytracca or Petrashaw?

 

He's a carbon copy of... dare I say it... Colin Sylvia.

Didnt know Sylvia played Basketball.

Can we say players were "Petraccambushed" or is that just too silly?

Like player X was petraccambushed, the petraccasssailant used a petraccattack?

I was looking forward to paddy and the hulk but we do need midfield talent.

Except he's not a [censored].

It's clear he is self driven. Something Sylvia never was.

The fact he is confident in his ability is a positive.

Landing Petracca and Brayshaw under our current FD format and environment will, in my eyes, be the break we've been longing for.

It's time.

I'll humour you HH. Not bad.

The only bigger break would be if we were given the PP that we deserved and we could granb Wright as well!

I'd agree.

I wasn't talking in terms of personality.

But he's not a leader either.

And I think that might count against him for St Kilda.

He might not be a leader but he can grow into one. Everyone is a leader in their own right. Adam Cooney was a smartass and cocky kid whk was always getting kicked out of his school classes for being a [censored]. Went on to win a charlie.

Jack Darling Dustin Martin weren't leaders in their junior days. It hasn't stopped them to become bloody good players. What they are though are driven individuals who lead by actions and thats all Petracca has to be.

But hey il take him if saints dont rate his leadership! :-D

maybe petracca was the player whose room was too neat.

my goodness, i really hope we don't pass on him in favour of lever...

It would be such a Melbourne thing to do.

Yeah I think thats going beyond the joke there.

Seriously since when does having a messh room effect your footballing ability.

Sorry but I must be the only one who think thats a bit too extreme.

 

I have just watched again and he doesn't hit a target by foot in that footage bar kicking goals.

I have no doubt he is a gun, however, I just haven't seen him hit targets by foot in the limited footage I have seen and the above link doesn't disprove that.

Ok, try this then.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons are back at the MCG for the second week in a row. They face the Suns off a 15 day break without their prized recruit and former Demon champion Christian Petracca. This will be a massive test for the Demons who will be facing a genuine Premiership contender. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: Carlton

    The text messages started flooding in shortly after quarter time. One read: “Is Melbourne even at the ground?” Moments later, as Carlton’s Elijah Hollands kicked the first goal of the second term, the Blues held a commanding 43-point lead. By then, the Demons’ only score was a behind kicked by Brody Mihocek nearly five minutes into the game. Ironically, Mihocek would also register the last minor score of the day after the game took a dramatic turnaround.
