Just what's needed.  A pump up article before an important game.

 

 

I’d really appreciate a PM of the article text. 
 

cheers

Received and appreciated Fella’s.


 

I got a sneaky feeling he’s too good a player at the moment to get sucked into media street.

 

(now watch him battle for 8 possessions and 2 behinds tomorrow)

Wouldn't it be great if the "little paper" was banned from Qld.

Yes, yes, I know about electronic editions. Not sure why anyone would bother .

Seen a few people on Twitter tonight mention the Footy Record curse. It got another scalp tonight in Port Adelaide. 

I’d like a similar study done on Demon 2 full page spread in the Hun and the correlation with performance that round. We never back it up.

No......... this is a different  Christian Petracca where he knows  and can play the game at an elite level as he is starting to do.  

Bring the game on IMO Petrac will be at it and don't forget the confidence is high with his partner in crime being  Clarry. They compliment each other.  We have an elite midfield  now that Petrac has taken the next step .

Petrac might not like to be compared to Dusty or being known as arrogant by others but it comes with the package l believe.

EG  Dangerfield comes across as a Figjam  however l wish that he played for us being such a great player same as Martin .is.

Christian can handle the pressure  and what comes with it.   Might be interesting to see if he can handle a tag.

Looking forward to seeing how far he can take his game to.

To me as well, if not too much trouble.

I really don't see the point in posting articles most of us can't access. At least not without a summary of contents.

The fact that no one has posted a summary is pleasing - it means very few subscribe to that Murdoch crud.

Thanks to those who pm'd me the article

I love it he is such an honest player without being obnoxious. I love the fact he is using meditation/mindfulness hopefully he sets an example for the rest of the side to follow as I think this has been one of the keys to the Tigers recent success.

 

 


Didn't Roos and wife have meditation/mindfulness for the players during his time at the club?

It showed in his first half...was on "media street". Tried to do way too much.

...but settled in the 2nd.

Agreed. Massive Hollywood vibes, but the mark and goal he kicked were class.

Just needs to focus on doing his thing and try not to get swept up in the hype. He's had a great season so far, but is overrated IMO at the moment. The commentators last night said 'how good was Petracca' after the game, but really there were a few others ahead of him last night, namely Oliver, Langdon and probably even May.

Despite all this, it's good to have a bit of hype around a few of our players. Makes them marketable and can attract sponsors.

Hope Trac keeps focusing and working hard on what's made him a much better player in the last year or so.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
