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

    I think it's time to let it go big fella.

    It's just not catching on.

    But everybody thought it was a great idea at play-lunch

    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.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
