One thing I've noticed, which should be clarified.

His name is not pronounced 'Petrahca'.  Definitely 'Petracka'.

what is the national costume of Cameroon?

Expand  

Thought you'd never ask!

Cameroon has over 300 different cultural groups, so technically they don't have a national costume as such.

However, in international events they generally adopt the costume of the area around Bamenda, the largest city in the English-speaking part (Cameroon being, of course, about 70% Francophone & 30% Anglophone).

His teammates all seem to say Petracka, but I'm guessing it's because they call him "Track".  So when they give the extended version it automatically rolls off the tongue.

Can't go wrong with Christian!

Just hope he plays his role and doesn't try to do too much because he thinks it's expected of him, just do what is asked of you young man and all will be well with the world.

No one.

It's just that the things we normally learn aren't exactly... uh... useful? Is that the word?

I'm trying to say I've learned a lot about jolly good floggings on here.

If you were italian, Petrahcca is definitely correct. The "a" is the same as casa or allora and the emphasis is on the cc. Just saying. 

Isn't it wonderful what two wins does to Demonland. What a pleasant place it is at the moment.

Anyone calling him Pet-RAH-kah should be prodded with a thousand pitchforks.

We will destroy the saints if we move the ball anything like what we have been recently, the Giants sliced them open and their defense looks very VERY average when they can't get numbers back. 

Thinking Hogan is due for a big game as well. 

Looking forward to seeing Petracca out there, slightly dissapointed however that it's most likely at the expense of Brayshaw, would have been great to see all these young guns starting to get a few games together but we really need Gus to find some form, he's very important to us going forward.

I have a feeling hogan is due to kick a bag soon. Hope its against the saints. Brayshaw has been struggling but I love watching him play. He is total class.

You want useful now??!! Useless facts aren't useful unless they're useless.

And anyway, Cameroonians aren't into jolly good floggings.

Unless it's Nigerians on the receiving end. :)

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
