No he is to fat

If plugger can get in, then Trac needs to take this decision criteria to the tribunal.

 

another season or two like the one he just had and it’s a done deal. 

HoF inclusion seems like a post-career honor to me ... 


Lacks pace, can't read the ball on the outside, downhill skis. No chance.

When does the footy start again?

 

Is this a question or a statement?😃

In a good side he could win a Brownlow.

 

But, seriously, if he maintains anything like what he's done in the last couple of seasons, he's a walk-up-start.

Consider the likes of Richardson, Hayes, Koutafides, Anthony Stevens - they are outstanding players but Petracca has them covered for sheer footballing effect.

The only consideration is whether Petracca will have the same 'gravitas' and perceived team impact as some of the characters that have received the modern-era entries in the Hall of Fame. That includes a lot of different kinds of people but the shared feature is that they were visibly outstanding for long periods.

By now, everyone knows who Petracca is and he is part of conversations about football. If he holds a consistent picture in people's mind (the laughing beast?) and becomes part of the 'personality' of the era, then obviously he'll be a hall of famer.

I'm more interested in Goodwin being promoted to Legend status, because that would only happen if Melbourne as a whole goes stomp-stomp-stomp for another few years. :D

  • Demonland changed the title to Petracca: Hall of Famer?

I still think it's a bit too early to tell. I don't like to make such arrogant predictions either.

After 5 or 6 Premierships with the Melbourne Demons, multiple Norm Smith medals, perhaps a Brownlow medal or two, a few more Best & Fairests and playing over 300+ games for us I will consider him worthy....😉

…and a pint of his blood and a promise from him that he surrenders his firstborn?

The way he’s tracking, Yes!

And Oliver. And Gawn.

it’s just a matter of time.

Shouldn’t that be Tracc-ing ? 🙃

    It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG after a dismal performance in Gather Round to face the reigning dual Premiers Brisbane. What do expect to see from the Dees today?

  • PREVIEW: Brisbane

    They really had me fooled when I picked them with great confidence to beat the Bombers at Gather Round last week. I should have recognised that nothing is more quintessentially Melbourne than defeating the undefeated early premiership favourite one week and losing to a winless cellar dweller on its way to establishing a record losing streak the next.
