drdrake 3,203 Posted October 5, 2021 Posted October 5, 2021 What else you going to do in lockdown. AFL players are the lucky ones to be able to still do what they love doing. Petracca would be like a caged Lion locked up at home. 9 Quote

Robbie57 2,042 Posted October 5, 2021 Posted October 5, 2021 Ok so this is a segue into the burning question who is going to be our high performance manager? I want us to be the fittest and least injured team in the league. 1 Quote
DubDee 26,674 Posted October 5, 2021 Posted October 5, 2021 Watching Trac mature over the past 2 years has been nothing short of astonishing. I feel like he knows how us fans feel and wants to be our hero, our legend. 100% invested and emotionally connected now. Could go down as one of our greats of all time. 3 1 Quote

Supreme_Demon 4,140 Posted October 5, 2021 Posted October 5, 2021 Great to see. I am sure he will have an extra break during Christmas too. I think Christian Petracca has now had a taste of success and wants more (Premierships)! Hopefully, many of the rest of the Demons players have the same attitude so that when they return to Pre-Season training they are fit and ready to go from the start. I saw on social media that Luke Jackson has also been training during the off season too which is wonderful to see! The impression I get is that the Melbourne players loved being part of Premiership success and now have a real hunger for more of it. As Paul Roos once said, you need to want to be great. It doesn't just happen for you. Anyway, we shall look forward to what happens next year in Season 2022 for the Demons! 2 Quote
