    I laughed when I saw him lace out King with the best kick he's ever done. King dropped it but the kick was perfect. Of course he turns into 21 Trac as soon as he leaves haha.

    I'm with you @Golly123 . I'm going to miss him but his time with us was done. I bear him no ill will.

    I must admit that ,although I bear him no ill will , I’m finding it actually difficult watching him play ( so well ) for GC .

    He couldn’t hit the side of a barn for us, can’t miss for them.

    Weird what structured skills coaching will do.

    I’m convinced, really convinced that in his last couple years he lost interest, and knew he wanted out and gave significantly less effort and output, which would make Melbourne want to trade him and cash in.

    I think he had a lot more than he was giving.

    Spot on. It’s clear his morale was very poor at the MFC for the last couple of seasons. He didn’t want to be there, particularly after his serious injury.

    no point continuing with the self-flagellation

    No it’s a huge loss for us. Petracca at his best is one the best players in the Competition. However, him staying at the MFC was increasingly untenable. He was very unhappy at the MFC for two seasons at least , especially after his serious injury. Therefore, there was no choice but to let him go . However, we are kidding ourselves if we believe that he’ll be easily replaceable or that his loss won’t be felt some time.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
