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.

Lovely pic. Just trying to work out which one is the afl player. I'm guessing it's the guy with the ball.

The other guy is too fat to play footie (sic)

    Congrats and has been a joy to watch this year.

    Hopefully his 200th won’t be played in a QLD hub.

    Might be if he is playing for the lions BBP!

    Still no article on club website to announce his 100th milestone.

    Feel he deserves the recognition especially for the season he has had.

    Plus Ben Gibson has mentioned Trac's milestone in the team changes article on the site. I also expect there will be a bit more about Trac in the 'Before the Bounce" vid they post about 2 hours before the game.

    Onya Christian! 5 years sure has flown and you've put a lot of hard work and dedication into what we see as a pretty amazing player that can only continue to improve! 

    It hasn't always been easy and there have been some course corrections on the way, at times you could even put him in the Jack Watts territory of unfair scrutiny but he's navigating all that quite well and looks the part.

    The no.5 has been a common staple in my matchday gear and made the call in 2016 to once again get a Guernsey with this no. Just wish I could be wearing it to games this year!

    Thank you.  I (like many fans) am not on twitter.

    My thinking is he deserves an article/headline on the website (with maybe a press release to the media) just to celebrate his milestone rather than having to read every article/see every video to hear the news. 

    Not sure how many fans would know to go looking for it, if they don't know it is a special game.

    Petracca's last 40 odd games have shown genuine growth, especially at times when others have been inconsistent. 

    Well Done to Trac, I can't wait to see what he brings over the next 100 games ?

    It is difficult when everyone had such high expectations for Tracc, the fact that he has reached those lofty expectations is a real credit to Tracc and may they continue for Him, his team mates and all supporters of the Red & Blue.

    Well done CP5.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
