Petracca in the Lab


Demonland

Recommended Posts

Really like the way this Petracca bloke moves, treadmill or no treadmill. Looks like he's been going at it for a while in this session, and isn't it great to see him operating this way - hammer and tongs - at this stage of the next season. This bloke does not compete with his mate Clarrie, he just ensures that he is in the best possible condition that he can be and takes it all on (including the physical testing) from his own inspiration and volition. Gotta admire his inputs to our Club; professional endeavour and focus. Onyer, Tracca!

I am glad Christian Petracca is such a driven and professional footballer for the Demons.

I hope he is enjoying his holiday in Europe and getting plenty of rest and relaxation too. 😎👍

Just in case the Australian Taxation Office is monitoring Demonland, clearly Petracca was not on a holiday at all. His travel costs were entirely directed toward high performance training with this photo the proof.

Like he said as an 18 yo, I want to be the best in the league.!!

To think, many of us scoffed at the assumptive self-confidence back then. We have been taught a lesson. Heil, Tracca.

The Red Bull nutritionist recommends schnitzel und strudel. 

But schnitzel is Austrian...make it bratwurst sautéed in onions and horseradish with a little Dusseldorf mustard to accompany. :-)

Great to see him working hard in the off season. Great attitude 

i think I recall him saying he probably overdid it last year I’m terms of continuing to train on and not resting properly before preseason. I hope he makes sure he puts his feet up and properly recharges before season 2023.

My mouth is watering.

( In berlin for the first and only time, put our cases in our room, walked down the street and into the first cafe we could find.

Me : Excuse me is there any German food on the menu?

Waiter : No sir, this is an italian restaurant.)

Does anyone know what Trac is actually doing?

Great having Red Bull on the sponsorship team if we get great cross promos like this!

Hi Buck. As long as they don't buy your club and rename it RB Leipzig, RB Salzburg or New York Red Bulls and change the kit to their corporate colours. They are despised by the other Bundesliga clubs for this very reason. 

German clubs are supposed to be 50%+1 owned by their fans so that no company can have a controlling interest in their decision making process. Red Bull got around this by purchasing what was then a lower league amateur team in Leipzig, limiting it's membership to just 21 people, many of who are unknown but suspected to be associated to the company so they could control it by proxy.

    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
