    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.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      The Casey Demons faced a tough first up task taking on reigning VFL premiers Footscray at Mission Whitten Oval. The Bulldogs, who unfurled their premiership flag pre-game, had 15 AFL-listed players and their top VFL talent available, setting them up for their 15th consecutive win.

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      The Demons were fumbly, inefficient, outrun and outgunned all over the field as they went down to the Dockers by 48 points at Optus Stadium in Perth.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day and the Demons have made the long trip west to take on Fremantle tonight at Optus Stadium. Can Melbourne make it two from two to start the season, and what are you hoping to see from the Dees under the lights in Perth?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.
