Re: Petracca
Petracca will be a good player for the Dees but he was a man child playing in the TAC Cup and I wonder how much growth or improvement he has left.
From the look of his dear mother he might have to work twice as hard to keep himself in shape

Re: Petracca
Anthony Banik was 175cm wasn't he??
My point was that Luke Parker lasted way too long in the draft (40s) when everyone knew he was a gun
The following fallacies are now debunked in recruiting
Too short
Too developed
It's pretty simple
Good AFL players are generally very good underage players

He may well end up being a player but I wouldn't judge it based on last night. Pretty much running around witches hats!
