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.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
