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.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      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?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      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.
