If you want to listen to an amazing story ... get on SEN with Andy Maher and listen to him talk to Mick Peters about his son Lucas & Christian Petracca.

It will nearly bring a tear to the eye ...

What an incredible person. So proud to have him at the football club and I really wish him all the success, he deserves it thoroughly!

Can't wait to watch him run out tomorrow!

[Dappa Dan 2,188]

How about that. A good person/footballer with talent that isn't a cokehead or borderline rapist. I feel like we stumbled across a unicorn.

So far above and beyond.

Also hats off to Hogan and Watts, three absolute champions in all respects. Very hard to listen to that Audio and not admire the calibre of the player and the man.

Great stuff.

[Robbie57 2,020]

Showing great character, well done CP5.

At training yesterday, William (7) and I were on the boundary watching Christian & Jeffy having shots from the boundary, when Christian dropped the F-bomb after missing one.

Now, my son has heard plenty of colourful language and he wouldn't have even noticed it, but Christian came up and apologised for saying it in front of Will and gave him a high 5 and proceeded to stop having his shots and took a few minutes out to find out who we were and where we were from.

After Will told him we'd come over from Adelaide and saw both Casey and Melbourne on the weekend but had to go home straight after training he said "I'll try my hardest on Saturday and when we sing the song we'll make sure you can hear it all the way over in Adelaide"

The kid is a ripping young man indeed!

And to think Petracca failed numerous of Psych tests and put clubs off through his personality LOL

Well done to Petracca and co for doing what they did. Amazing stuff

[Ricky P 757]

Great stuff from Track.

[BarnDee 287]

wow how COOL  is that 

[Phadraig 760]

Was he just not taking the interviews as seriously as he should have been or something? He seems like a top notch bloke

Might have something to do with some AFL sides wanting robots, not personalities.

Depending on how you frame the psych test will give you varying results. An extrovert like CP5 may standout for differing reasons both good and bad depending on what you are looking for. A club like St Kilda  with all the off field dramas may have shied away from such a personality, whilst to me he seems like the exact type of player we needed in our group.

[Phadraig 760]

I havnt heard any depth into these rumours about the psych tests, could it be the saints doing to take some pressure off them picking Mccartin?

[Deestroy All 14,266]

Just brilliant.

My cousin died of muscular dystrophy around 14 years ago , coming from a small family it was a devasting experience that lasted 20 years, I remember at the time my auntie told me the federal government contribution to find a cure was around $50,000 lousy bucks a year, I hope that's changed I know Darren Bennets son also suffers from it it's horrendous disease that holds no prisoners my cousin lasted to the age of 22 and that's a fair lifespan from someone suffering it, well done Christain your all class.

[Deestroy All 14,266]

I've got it and I'm 38 in July. 

Would it be too much pressure to message Christian and ask him to hurry up with the premiership?

Any human that finds that laughable is pretty messed up .

No one is liking it because it is 'laughable.'
