2014 Player Review - # 37 Max Gawn

Featured Replies

Posted

Had an interrupted pre-season and couldn't maintain sufficient form when he received the opportunity to break into the senior team as a regular ruckman despite some good form at Casey (where he won the best and fairest). Survived yet another knee scare when injured in the last game of the season.

I maintain that if he can avoid injury he will be our starting ruck man by the end of 2015 / start of 2016 season.

He's massive and mobile, seems to have skills and passion to make it. God knows we need him to as the big Russian as admirable as he was this year really is a dinosaur.

Max seems to be more the 'modern' ruck man - ridiculously tall and remarkably agile.

I have high hopes.

As much as Roos seems to love Jamar, Gawn has gone past him and should start next season as number 1 ruckman. If he can get a decent look at the pre season he could be one of our most important players next year. I really like the fact that he can push forward and make a genuine contest, as opposed to Jamar who contributes nothing outside the centre circle.

 

Gawn when fit is now our best ruckman. He is a problem for defenders up forward when resting, and is capable around the ground. If he hadn't have had so many injuries we might be talking about Gawn being one of the premier ruckman in the AFL.

FEAR THE BEARD!

He has shaved it off!


Injured again but that is our lot but then I didn't see Max mentioned in the AFL' s response to our request for draft assistance. It is all rose coloured glasses for us apparently, every kid on our list is a champ! Bring on 2015 I say.

Earl, have you heard what Gawn is up to over the off season?

apparently is going to be mentored in Meditation in the Roos household, & IT suggested he take up music lessons, to help with his Rhythm & Fluency... & Tami will mentor him for balance...

  • Thank You Simon Goodwin

    As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

  • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

    Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

  • REPORT: West Coast

    The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

  • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

    With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
