WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - CHRISTIAN PETRACCA

so basically we'll end up with either Petracca or Brayshaw?

I see that as a win, win really.

I bet you're a happy camper tonight!

Time will tell how good Petracca becomes but if he is anywhere near the Wines/D.Martin hybrid like he's pumped up to be, I CANNOT WAIT to see him in action.

    Whether he will end up like those two or not one thing is for sure: HE WILL HAVE A [censored] DIP!

    Petracca looks like a bloody man child and is not just what Toumpus would look like on steroids?

    I just hope these draft picks have the same effect on our club that Buddy and Rough did.. Premierships!

    I wish Toumpas had Petracca's strength through the core.

    Who knows, maybe Toumpas is just playing catch up after hip surgery a couple years back.

    But if we get the best out of Jimmy Toumpas and Christian Petracca, we'll be a very dangerous football side.

    The best thing I heard when Roos was interviewed was that "we now have to develop all our draft picks properly".

    Geez it's nice to be in good hands for a change.

    Couldn't be happier with CP.

    Welcome.

    There's just something about landing Petracca that is so un-Melbourne like and it utterly excites me.

    I cant put my finger on it, but he is exactly the type of player we were never meant to have landed. Hes the type that goes to other clubs...surely...

    Best draft i can remember in such a long time..if ever..as it stands.

    exactly!! Not sure what it is but im wrapped

    What an absolute belter of an interview. These guys just rolled off each other looked genuine excited to be together and playing for the Melbourne Football Club. Lot of laughing and banter between em just love it. Thats what footys all about.

    Compare it to the dull and snooze fest interviews Scully and Trengove gave together couple of years ago.

    Obviously he plays differently and the game is different, but not just because he's Italian but the bubbly enthusiasm Petracca has is very like what I imagine a young Dippa would've been like.

    Liking the multi-cultural flair. Greek, Lebanese and now Italian. And all three are guns in the making.

    Poor old paddy looked like a lamb in headlights when he was welcomed to their club by roo over the telephone

    "He's gonna kill me!"

    Fantastic clip.

    There was something about those two. I've never seen draftees come to Melbourne that just looked like they were going to make it. They oozed confidence together. I hoe we see that on the field. Amazing.

    They were billeted together on the GC for the draft. Other than that I don't know.

    Disagree. Out isn't just that. Though they are pumped to be together.

    The relationship Angus has with Roos is a plus. They are happy to be at Melbourne.

    It isn't Essendon. It isn't st kilda. It may not be getting drafted to Hawthorn BUT it isn't horrible anymore to come to roos and the dees.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
