Western Australia,Christian Petracca,Multiple Phone Calls

AFL: Melbourne Demons star Christian Petracca responded to the reports that his family was 'frustrated' towards the Melbourne football club.

The chase for an out-of-contract Saint is heating up, as a club on the rise tables a contract that would see him locked away until 2030.

Battle, who has been linked to an ever-keen Hawthorn for some time now, has been tabled a deal for half a dozen years by the brown and gold according towith co-host Riley Beveridge, Twomey believes there is no clear leader for the 193cm defender as the Hawks close in with a strong contract offer. “ Hawks’ offer as I understand it will be six years for him as an unrestricted free agent – I expect the Saints to be putting forward the same deal at six years to keep him.”Sam Edmund has in addition revealed that Hawthorn’s enthusiasm to lure the key defender runs as deep as current coach Sam Mitchell.

The key forward-turned-defender is looked up favourably by Hawthorn, who this year had several key defenders fall through injury before Round 1.
