? DANGER SIGNS

The signs Christian Petracca is charting the same career trajectory as one of the AFL's premier on-ballers.

Stats show Christian Petracca is charting Patrick Dangerfield’s rise to KFC SuperCoach stardom

Stuck behind pay-well, but not surprising that he's statistically similar to Danger and a few others. Classic mid-forward type. He's been good for a few years, but has the potential to be great. Hopefully increased fitness and the move into the midfield properly will help him realise his potential and become great.

    Rumor has it Petracca wants to play more midfield and was disgruntled it wasn't happening. Club said he wasn't fit enough and he'd get more midfield time if he increased his fitness. Looks like he's increased his fitness over summer and so the club are giving him the midfield time he wants.

    Win Win! Trac is a weapon!

    And he could still get quite a bit fitter, and still lose 2 to 3 Kgs.

    He is doing the right things and has trimmed down to a good playing weight  during the preseason.

    According to the stas pages he is the same weight at 96 Kgs?   Maybe he shed some puppy fat, and put on some more muscle.?

    The Key to me is the change in attitude, and newfound maturity.  Lets all hope he takes on more responsibility in the team as well, and starts to lead a little.

    If we didn't get a deal done we would have a handful of clubs offering Petracca serious dollars

    And maybe the club realised that with Tracca turning over a new leaf this season so far,  that too much noise from other clubs could distract him from his new focus,  and potential improvements.

    @Mach5 you've got to be happy with that comparison...

    What’s that saying? A lion doesn’t waste his time worrying about the opinions of idiots or something?

    Yes, great little doco series. I’d be more impressed if I hadn’t been calling for exactly that for about 5 years now. Not a groundbreaking concept, and they’ve been making the videos for years for the foundation heroes, but it’s great to see the club do something of merit. Is this what Pert has been spending all his time working on?

      Melbourne’s much vaunted finishing power evaporated at Adelaide Oval on Saturday afternoon, exposed for the third time in four years by its Essendon Gather Round hoodoo.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.
