How Petrie finished the season
Perhaps Petrie’s best two performances in the second half of the season were in close losses, as he gave his all trying to help his side across the line.
Hauls of five and four goals against Brisbane and Carlton respectively weren’t enough, but Petrie’s efforts can’t go unnoticed. From Round 10 through to 17, he played seven consecutive games with 100 per cent game time, showing off his durability.
Petrie should end 2014 in the top 10 all-time goal kickers at North, needing just 15 more majors to pass Shannon Grant in tenth position.
