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.

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
