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.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
