Petracca Back at It


Demonland

Recommended Posts

A player who has zero patience for his career. 

He's success hungry now and I expect every single player to be having this same mindset.

Just a champion growing in front of our eyes.

This is a loyal, hard-nut Demon if ever there was one. Focus and intent.

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.

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.

As the only MFC Norm Smith medallist ever, I already put him in our list of greats.

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!

I heard he cycled to Esperance, swam the Bight to Adelaide and then ran back into Melbourne for a post season triathlon - there's your 9 days.

Gotta strike while the irons hot. He wants to be a Hall of Famer, multiple premierships with a Norm Smith will get him legend status.

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
