Congratulations for the 100th game on Monday. 

You have worked hard to improve yourself and your game every year from debut in 2016.  In every way you do yourself and the red and blue proud.

Would love it to be at the 'G'.  One of the sad parts of this season has been to not be able to watch your talents live.

Hoping the team brings the win home for you.

    Didn’t realise we were playing again on Monday! Well done Trac, possibly the most improved player in the competition this season. Lift your mates.

    Congratulations  Christian 

    Love the way you have been going about the year. You have been building to the 100th  game and playing the best footy of your career.  

    Your next 100 will be even better.  I thank the Lord that you play for our great club.

    Huge year for the trac built on an immense pre season. Kudos to the real X factor we have in this team.

    Gone to the next level this year. Well done young man.

    P.S. Honourable mention to St Kilda

    Despite our 7-7 record, still in line for a top 5 Brownlow finish and an AA jumper.

    Has taken his game to another level this year, which very few other MFC players have done.

    There is a continued expectation on him to lead us. It's important we all remember he's only just now reaching his 100th game and is only 24 years old.

    So many comparisons get drawn between him and Dustin Martin. IIRC, Martin's entrance to the AFL's elite was 2016 (first time he won RIchmond's B&F and made the AA team). That was his 7th season. Petracca's currently in his 6th season, one of which he missed entirely through injury.

    If the club is coached properly, it could be incredible!

    I’ve spent many a match at the G telling my family and friends that ‘one day’ Pettacca will break games open and with consistency. 
    Oh to have been there this year to see it in person.

    Congratulations Christian, you always liked to mingle with the fans on Family Days, something we appreciated. 

    After you win the Brownlow, I guess those days will come to an end! We will have to queue. ?

    Well done to Trac, he’s been a definite bright spot this year in amongst inconsistency from many teammates. 

    He can get better, which is scary for the competition. Really hope he celebrates with a win.

    Well done Christian. Probably the only player on the list to have improved from last year, which is a testament to the work he has done. My only hope is that he remains in red and blue once his contract ends in 2022. He will be a restricted free agent then, and I can see him seeking team glory elsewhere.

    Congratulations on 100 games Christian Petracca!

    You are having a wonderful year and I feel you can only get better if you keep up the hard work! The sky is the limit for you!

     

    I hope you get to wear a few premiership medallions around your neck for the Demons and I look forward to you playing another 200+ games for the club.

    Has done it the hard way after tearing that ACL in his first preseason and it's obvious it has taken real commitment to reach the level he's now at.  As others have mentioned, it's scary when you think he probably still has another level to go to. 

    His best this season has been pretty bloody good, but I do feel like the side in general, he does need to work a bit on consistency, which is hopefully both him and the side will develop over the next 25 - 50 games (I can't help but think that his personal consistency and that of the teams are interdependent).

    Asides from his obvious on feild talent, Christian has always given the impression that he'd be a rippa of a bloke to have around the club.  Congratulations Christian - look forward game 100, 200 in the red & blue and beyond and hopefully a few premierships along the way.

    Despite the club’s failings, it’s pretty bloody nice to have a team with three genuine stars of the comp. Of those three (Gawn, Clarry and Trac for those playing at home), this is the guy that has the most superstar potential. Another couple of years of this level and we will have a Dusty /Danger/Fyfe level player in our midst. Been a long time between drinks since we’ve had that.

    Congrats to the big guy. Please stick around for the next 100.

    Nothing on the club website yet.  Anyone seen a tweet or fb post?  Hope they don't forget!

    Its a shame border closures prevent this little guy from Tassie being their to watch the 100th as he was for Christian's 1st.

    Hadn't played a game yet had time and care to share his opportunity with a great kid.  No accolades sought.  It was Lucas' dad that let the media know about Christian's befriending of his son.

    It’s a pity it is happening in front of almost no one and in a game that’s means nothing in the scheme of things. Has turned into a very good  player, IMO one of only 4 very good players we have.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
