He will get applause from me before the start of the game.

Followed by many boos? 😂

I would hope his audience would be pretty bloody positive given his contribution to the club over the past 11 years. This is the furthest thing from Jackson or McVee leaving after delivering one decent season.

Don’t disagree.

However, I have a feeling he won’t get the most welcoming audience, rightly or wrongly.

I hope he is not booed. I certainly won’t be. But I won’t be cheering him either.

Some appreciation and show of respect before the bounce and then it's down to business and he is an ex player.

Petracca took a break from treating his young teammates to his great food to reflect on the absurdity of suggestions that his non-football brand development was a distraction. "I always put my football first, which is why I'm serving the all-star midfield group a delicious linguine with clams".

"The average footballer's career is only four and a half years, so as a superstar entering his twelfth year and earing over a million a season it is important I show leadership by giving those average footballers the experience of my nan's famous three-cheese stuffed capsicum before they are ruthlessly dropped back to obscurity."

His midfield coach lauded his attitude, saying he had brought a great attitude and several lasagne to the club. "From his very first entree, we knew he would add a terrific new ingredient to our midfield combination fried rice"

Petracca also noted that like all Queenslanders he waa sure his mental health was great.

"I'm definitely never doing that dumplings in the rice cooker recipe again", he affirmed, adding that it was Clayton's idea anyway.

This article originally made no mention of monosodium glutamate. We have edited the article to include the statement from Damian Hardwick, that "None of Christian's recipes include MSG, which is widely known to be a method used by the Chinese Communist Party to implant microchips into the spinal fluid of consumers to create Manchurian Candidates." We apologise for the error.
