You do realise it's pronounced Petrarka don't you?

Only when used on its own

When its used as PETRACCATTACK is is pronounced Pe-track-ah

Glad I could clear the air for everyone on this issue

    Good call, Deestroy Allsy.

    Your choice of name has preempted my mockingly Roos-esque term of endearment retort.

    Well played.

    I will not rest until every Demon supporter is yelling Petraccattack every time he goes near the ball

    If anyone wants a laugh head over to the Saints bigfooty.

    They have gone from calling him their saviour to rubbishing him and calling him fat and useless LOL

    Christiansy. Simple.

    Better than 'Pet.'

    I said pet, I said love, I said darl, I said pet - get the effing ball!

    Actually, I don't mind that...

    If we could get him to tweak the pronunciation of his name a bit to Pet-tracker, could get a pet tracker as seen above on board for sponsorship, and make Hogans_Heroes happy, but we don't want to do that. Maybe whack one in the old GPS slot in his jumper. Not as far a reach as Buddha Hocking changing his name to Whiskers.

    TBH HH i like it. It's got a nice feel about it.

    I'm in. But perhaps rather than yelling it every time he goes near the ball i'll start after he hits 25 possessions and/or 3 goals

    Petracca and Brayshaw look so un-MFC like for draftee midfielders to the club. Neither are choir boys.

    Bloody pumped. About time.

    I have always loved this club. And it feels like it is finally starting to pay me back.

    I feel the same, we've finally drafted the right type of guys.

    It has taken us a good decade to draft some bigger bodies early - but we should reap the rewards.

    Petracca looks like a bull and Brayshaw looks every bit another Dustin Martin/Oliie Wines type player.

    Delighted with the choices but was there any choice?
    Lets give them some time and then enjoy the joy.

    They're a pathetic bunch

    But what do you expect from supporters of a team that has won 1 flag LOL

    They've won one more than us since their last.

    Or including it was the point. We rely too heavily for our sense of self upon what was done by those who are now dead or old men. Time to make a new history for what was once a great club. I think recent developments give us cause for optmism.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • PREGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      With their season all over bar the shouting the Demons head back on the road for the third week in a row as they return to Adelaide to take on the Crows. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
