Petracca is a monster... then again, so was Tapscott

In one of the pics he makes Nathan Jones look small in build

Hes certainly a big boy..... but unlike Tapscott he can seriously play

Even in the face he looks like one of the seniors

Without trying to be a negative Nellie.. I hope his dominance at junior level was not because he had a clear developmental advantage - others will catch up to him over a few preseasons

exactly (can't tell if arguing or agreeing) it's been one year, hence his ability to impact in the AFL better than his colleagues - he's already built for it. May not stand out so much in a couple of years when the reed-like kids (eg Toumpas) have filled out a bit. Just sayin'

the difference between Petracca and Scully/Trengove in their first preseason is remarkable

Congrats on those superb photos Six6Six. You must be a skilled photographer as well as having a super camera. Good to see the boys working hard and enjoying themselves. I liked the shots of Jack Watts on the bike and his serious approach to his task. Good to see Trenners there too. You have covered many players in action. Thank you.

Yep great pics, I live in the north east of vic and have never been to training, what i enjoyed was to see the body development in stills We only get down to 1or 2 games a year (redleg member) but 2015 I am gunna bust my fat gut to see a lot more.

Well said Dave. You bust your (fat) gut to get to as many games as possible from obviously a fair way away, yet people that live on the outskirts of the CBD refuse to go to our games at Etihad, or the MCG for that matter, then sit and whinge about our fixture year after year.

It was a last man standing handball drill. Ten of them lined up with Shannon Byrnes firing in hot handballs. When someone missed the receive they were booted from the group. Mitchie had just let one through an was being given a rousing sendoff

I'm in Perth and those training photos really made me feel I was actually at training. Some great close ups of the boys. I look forward to more.

Bernie Vince, very sad to see his shoulder, hope he doesn't push it, really looks like it needs a lot of work, I know this has been said elsewhere...

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
