Petracca doesn't have a mum, he was created in a lab.

It's hard enough watching Melbourne play without also having money on the line.

Dont think so picket

What do you know that I don't??

If you are going to name a bloke and then say he will only play if such and such doesn't then you comprimise your credibility! If Petracca has been named and from all reports he has been tearing it up at Casey, then he should play! End of story!

I was fully expecting to miss Trac's debut, but I'm a little devastated that it's actually happening. 

I still don't think he'll play. Feel like they're teasing him. Like starving a dog and then letting him loose. My prediction is next week. Would also be kind of unfair for Trac to play ahead of ANB who has been smashing the door down at Casey for weeks (and yes I know fairness has nothing to do with team selection)

Mahoney basically said that, if Garlett doesn't get through training on Friday, then there is a chance Petracca is called up as his replacement.

Therefore if Garlett plays, Petracca doesn't.

Pedersen, Garlett, Hunt, Kennedy for mine. Petracca if Garlett doesn't play.

Absolutely agree. Richmond have no one that can slow down our quick small forwards. We can definitely use that advantage coupled with stretching them in the air with hogan, watts, pederson and frost.

Shheit you are kidding Petracca will be a superstar ANB whilst deserving certainly is not in this blokes league! Sheeit if he has been named then he needs to play! Simple as that!

Do you really expect that Mahoney will say it like it is?? Cheezus Keep Ninethmond on the edge!!

Mahoney on Petracca: 

“We now consider him as available for selection and if Jeff is unable to get through tomorrow's main session, Christian will be a chance to debut."

Classic Smokescreens and Miirors Expect BOTH to play!

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi
