Christian Petracca



Recommended Posts

Richmond pick 1 plus another later first round pick.

Kangaroos pick 2 + Duursma

West Coast pick 3 + Future 1st

St kilda pick 4 + Max King

I don't know, just trying to make myself feel better. It's not working and I still don't like most of these deals.

I must admit, I reckon the way Trac has hung Clarry out to dry, it might just be enough to light a fire under Clarry’s [censored]!

Head to head in top form, it would be a ding dong battle.

People have already alluded to him planning a massive off season and potential overseas training camp

I don't see that any clubs, yet alone Melbourne-based clubs, have the trade capital, not to mention the A-grade player to throw in. Apparently Hawthorn interested (though who knows ...), but they only have Pick 12 and ???

Newcombe and Weddell in, Petracca out

makes us a better side.

Unfortunately I can’t see Hawthorn going for it.

I was thinking the same thing. One of the reasons McClure gave was that he didn’t like how the Oliver situation was resolved..

Oliver was supposed to be one of his best mates.. so he wanted to just drop him despite all his challenges. Some mate..

From what I can gather the only other club to lose a Norm Smith medallist was WCE who lost Judd BUT he won it in a losing side.

It is unfathomable what has happened to this club since winning the flag, is it just that we can't have nice things?? Supporters will be absolutely furious if this trade eventuates and the club must front with answers. The typical corporate speak and fobbing us off will just lead to more disillusionment and disengagement. Petracca is huge with the young supporters who will drop off unless we can get back to winning and win another flag very soon.

Reckon we offer him up to Freo for Andrew Brayshaw and one of their first round draft picks. They are a big club who pull big crowds

I guess all they can do is say they want to keep him to keep is trade value up? its like with Oliver letting it leak he was having a personal crisis before then suggesting he might be traded was amateur.

Oliver never let that leak. It was leaked by the club to pull him into line.

Not sure Trac is really going to like not being the big star at Carlton behind Cripps and Curnow. 

Maybe he will try to push them both out and then demand another trade at the end of 2025 being unhappy with their direction

He’s a big star of the competition as it is. If the reports are true, I think it’s more about increasing his “brand” and social media presence, and going to one of the big Melbourne clubs would do that.

G- brace yourself it’s gonna happen. There no walking this back. He has torched other players in the club. If they don’t trade him, I’d be less worried about the opposition players on the field.

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves.

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm
