2025 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

The superstar Demon midfielder made a successful return to the fold after his devastating injury last year and the subsequent fallout from the treatment he received, during which time he sought to depart the club. Petracca's professionalism and strong play, both in the midfield and up forward, were outstanding and resulted in him being runner-up in the club's best and fairest count. However, early this week, the club's new CEO, Paul Guerra, confirmed that the under-contract Petracca has again requested a trade, adding that he would only be allowed to leave for a “quality offer that turns our head". No doubt some Demon heads are already spinning.

    Can someone please explain what is a contract??

    Someone if their own volition signs for x years at $y - so far I understand.

    Then the player changes his mind and wants out - why should the original club be liable for 0.01 cents of his salary elsewhere? Hasn’t he breached his contract unilaterally?

    Sure, if we want him out becoming the party that breached the contract, then we need to make a deal that satisfies him.

    How does it all actually work out?

    Petracca is a legend of the MFC whether he stays or goes, prefer him with us but if he is against us we really need to ensure that we are adequately compensated. CP5’s don’t grow on tree’s.

    man ive lost my love for this bloke. even on the off chance he stays.

    He is off to the GC. They have the credit needed to get a deal done. Crows never had it. When we get Draft spots / players and $1+ off our books it will be a good result.
