Christian Petracca

[kev martin 9,665]

This may just blow over. No club will deal with his contract. The players know, and have a bond that includes multi-generational in a variety of leagues. It is why the MFC can "celebrate" end of season with him. Bridges aren't burnt.

Gives us plenty to get entertained about in a finals series that we are not included in. We are on the lips of the media hordes. Must have taken a leaf out of the Collingwood play book. That's branding.

Also paging @Chook in Perth again - his post gone too soon 😭

I totally understand why Andy deleted my post. But I don't know how to explain what I know that doesn't paint many parties in a negative light.

This is all just so bizarre and I feel like it’s inevitable that I catch your collective MFCSS after only a few years of membership… 😢

One of us... one of us... one of us!!

I've found a solution tonight to the stress of our footy club burning down.

My dad listened to country music a lot while I was a kid and I truly hated it.

I discovered Johnny Cash a decade or so  ago and then Drive by Truckers, The Graveyard Train, Justin Townes Earle etc etc.

While I love garage, punk music etc a lot. Country has a special place in my heart now and Gillian Welch and Dave Rawlings are truly one of my favourite artists. The harmonies, the tumbling guitar lines by Dave are beautiful.

I thoroughly recommend listening to their new album while reading the apocalypse on this site.

You are highly likely to just give up the thread, put the phone down and grab a beer or a glass of wine and wrap yourself in their exquisite music.

If I can save a couple of demonlanders from this thread for a few hours, I'll be happy.

Hope a few of you tune in and drop out. 

All the best to you all. Some big messy stuff ahead for our club but there's more to life than footy.

Love Brownie.

 

Better solution to the stress of football.

You're not on notice.

Apologies, I think I might have triggered you there with all the other comments flying around.  Was trying to make a bit of a joke (although in the past I think a few posts have gone thru the auto moderator, and it's fine.) 

My comment was more to the poster JCB, who started his post with "Ouch!" I mean he even got the punctuation correct and all :) 

BTW keep up the good work, appreciate the efforts of you and mods. 👍

As Kosh once said, understanding is a three edged sword, their version, our version and the truth.   

Any small thing is being pumped as important and blown out of proportion.  Trac is currently back with the boys from reports.

This is not to say that there aren't issues. But issue take time to work through if they are to be done properly.  

We just need to ride it out.  If the tigers have a great set of draft picks coming to them.

At this point no idea. Often in these situations its as simple as the opportunitist managers flying a kite to see if they can get their bloke some of the extra filthy lucre available, should Christian get traded to the Lakers like he desires

I basically need a dual monitor setup to keep track of the Trac and Kozzy threads. This club really is fighting on multiple fronts here.

Gut feel on if the club caves and trades him, or if we hold him to his contract and really upset the applecart?

If I’m getting the tone of your posts right, you are a little too excited about this issue. 
 

Id prefer you attacking Trac and everything to do with Trac. Just like everyone on here 😂😝

Im also assuming you are a new friend with Trac on Insta. You know I’m right  here…. 

Also, no one cares about Ashton Smashton Moir. He irrelevant to us Demonlanders. 
 

Good day Sir 🤩😂

Yes, this speculation has piqued my interest. Firstly Tracc is my favourite Demon, actually my favourite non-Blue footballer. Was saddened to hear of his issues with MFC and looking to leave ...

... then I hear Carlton talked about as possibly the primary destination ... now my interest levels are sky high ...

Don't really frequent Insta but I do take an interest in things culinary actually, dabble in the kitchen sometimes,  so maybe I should check out Tracc's handiwork, how is he with Asian cuisines, does he make Som Tum Pla Ra (love salted crabs)? 😁

Think Tracc might have to take a salary haircut if he really wants to catch the 19 Tram up Royal Parade though. I think Carlton could rustle up the money inside the cap but if there is a disparity with other Carlton stars that is a problem.

It is an excellent album. In a similar vein, Waxahatchee tickets for her November tour went on sale today…suggest you go along.

On another note, we will rise again…sooner than it seems. I’m sure of it.

Dude, Andy literally just did a bunch of posts explaining why there is moderation, how he is otherwise at risk of legal action, and how deliberately circumventing moderation (and ignoring warnings) will result in a ban...

What would Jackson & Roos be thinking after laying down the foundations and watching it collapse!  There was footage of when Roos telling Petracca your playing your first senior game and the look on face of Trac! what has become of our club???
