Oh come on. Watch that final play where Petracca won the ball. And ANB with 8 tackles, this is what we have been lacking the past few weeks.

As one of Alex Neal-Bullen's major detractors, it seems unfair not to acknowlege that he played a good, pretty much error-free game and was a valuable contributer.  Not in the best half dozen players but not far away.

Petracca’s set shot....

I keep reading about these little things Petracca does. How about the big things? Like going back and slotting a very gettable goal, he continues to miss easy set shots. How about when there’s a boundary throw in 30 metres from goal he starts 10 metres defensive side and bursts through the stoppage at pace collecting the tap from Gawn and slots one on the run. Whilst I acknowledge the small things are important in having the complete game some place too much importantance on them to divert away from the fact he is still yet to really deliver. Still very tradeable at this stage.

Trac: hypoxic set shots

Sorry, couldn’t resist. Do think he’s the type that needs to play on instinct. Over-thinking things is not his go.

It was surprising across the game, but there were good efforts and signs, as well. Still, a very good asset in the team and had some stiff opposition against whom he persisted.

    TRAINING: Monday 17th February 2025

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

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.

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
