I noticed your footer HH, sorry but that would have to be the worst nickname for Petracca I have ever seen.

How dare you

Guarantee round 1 next season when he bursts out of the centre square and kicks the goal from 50 you will rise and yell THE PETRACCATTACK IS UNDERWAY

    Haha I can guarantee you that I won't.

    Ps How good would that be if he did kick the first goal for the year though.

    "Tracca", as in "Tracker". Isn't that what Brayshaw called him in their joint interview?

    Agree with Wormburner,

    That Petraccattack whatever it is, is rubbish.

    When you look at it all you see is Blur followed by CATTACK

    Way too close to Geelong - wrong team HH

    Much prefer that. Easier to say, and I wouldn't feel like a moron calling it out.

    Heard him referred to as "Track" and "Tracker" by a couple of players.

    Interesting observation / speculation above that he could become a Westhoff type versatile quick tall swing forward - took him a while to develop from a skinny battler to a solid contributor

    That would be a very useful type of player to have on our list

    They actually call him "Truck" or sometimes "Trark", as in Pet-trark-a.

    "Truck!" Perfect, can already hear the crowd yelling it as he bursts through the centre bounce pack.

    Does he have the same level of endurance?

    Not sure if he's at Tom's level or not, but he ran a 10:30 in the 3km at the combine, which is pretty good for a guy his size.

    It seems like Oscar had an awesome TAC cup season, but can anybody answer whether he played in the national championships?

    If not, why not? Considering his highlights and that most Phantom drafts had him picked in the mid-20s, it's suprising that he doesn't seem to have been picked by to play in the championships to compete against the best kids in the country?

    I know he was rated by some much higher but I'm just interested that as one of that scarce breed of talls who are hard to find he was passed over by so many.

    Hopefully they all made a big mistake.

    I suppose you can say the same about Tom.

    They made a big mistake with him too.

    Why would you take it so far to be so obscure that no one would understand what you were on about without drawing a diagram?

    Simple and to the point is the best.

    Truck. Sounds a bit like Petracca and he charges through like a truck.

    It works beautifully. Why overwork it?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
