That was truly open and honest interview, and it says a great deal about Tracc himself! He said that he wears his heart on his sleeve, and he sure does!

Very nice description @Deeoldfart . Trac has been truly open and honest since his very first media interviews at the Dees. In those early days, older players were surprised with how well he articulated feelings within the club and where the club was at in a way that that was open and honest yet respected the club itself.

Surprisingly, the lads get next to no media training. There are some aspects of AFL as an industry that are brilliant - I mean, what a great game - and there are other aspects that are cringe worthy amateur hour. Still, nothing's perfect, especially me.

Back on Trac, his openness and honesty reflects a man who has been raised by a family filled with authentic Italian family love.

For those who remain somewhat disgruntled with Trac for the media circus and conjecture following the Kings birthday game last year, just for a moment put yourself in Trac's shoes. He was informed he could have died. Then, he may not be able to play footy again. The recovery process was traumatic. For someone who aspired (aspires?) to be like Dusty and become the best in the AFL...how would any of us cope coherently...

For this, Trac should have our compassion, nothing less.

Celebrate a champion at the G this Sunday.

Coincidentally Petracca's 150th game was against the Swans. Which game you ask? The qualifying final in 2022 when he fractured his leg and we found out that back to back wasn't likely to happen anymore.

Time for pay back. Thankfully this Swans side has half the talent of that side that beat us that night.

 

i was very unimpressed with Trac's attempt to force a trade last year.

but time heals all wounds. I'll be there to cheer him on.

bringing a gaggle of kids with me. my 2, their cousins and 1 friend. all dees supporters. hope i don't lose any of them or i'll be in trouble when i get home

Iโ€™m doing my bit.. coming up from Ballarat for my 3rd games this year.

Bringing the wife (who hates football) 2 kids (who hate football) and my wifeโ€™s best friend from Sydney who has never seen footballโ€ฆ should be a good day.

Best thing about birthdays is people have to say yesโ€ฆ.

Happy birthday, SPC! Hereโ€™s to a win for you while surrounded by folks who hate footy!!! ๐Ÿ˜… Have a great day, regardless x


Congratulations to Trac, our champion Norm Smith medallist and premiership legend, hope to see him play at least another 100 in the red and blue

So yeah, this ginormous Tracc graphic came to us in four sections (as do all milestone graphics of this size) and the sections have white borders which need to be trimmed off. I trimmed one section then slid it off to the side to make enough room to lay out the next section and this is what happenedโ€ฆ

Yeah his 150th was funnily enough also against Sydney in the 2022 week 1 final.

The 100th game was that yuck 2020 Cairns game V Freo.

50th was a 2018 thumping from the Pies on Queens birthday.

Was there, with 30-something 'kids' (front row, Punt Rd left fwd flank) Got a TV screenshot of very excited us behind Fritta's goal celebration - things looked so rosy at that stage of the game.

We're looking forward to tomorrow for catharsis. The nicest of DeesTracctions!

When I shared a little of a convo I had with Tracc last year a certain poster replied, โ€œGuaranteed that conversation never happened.โ€

More recently I quoted Clarrie (verbatim) and was reported for posting the โ€œmost appalling postโ€ ever seen on Demonland (according to a different poster).

So now, apart from conversations about haircuts or moustaches or favourite songs etc. I donโ€™t share anything.

Anyways, on a much happier note, this is a โ€œthumbnailโ€ of the graphic on Sundayโ€™s bannerโ€ฆ

Itโ€™s gonna look incredible from the stands.

I donโ€™t have a pic of the other side of the banner but itโ€™s a giant graphic of Kozzieโ€™s dadโ€™s beautiful design.

At first glance, his guernsey in the central action pic was indeterminately coloured and looked to be sporting a map of Tassie!

Did everyone miss this from his presser?

His milestone game record is zero and three.

Uh-oh...

So, break that for him, boys! He'll certainly be doing his bit!

And so it came to pass.

Both by himself and by the group.

Phew!

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, itโ€™s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. Itโ€™s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologistย  Itโ€™s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now letโ€™s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmedย the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).ย

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Caseyโ€™s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckmanโ€™s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demonsโ€™ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
