Will Big Max re-sign?

I noticed on several occasions post match certain commentators conspicuously pointed out that Big Max is out of contract at year's end and he has not yet re-signed. They tended to come from clubs notorious for pinching our players: Hawthorn, Freo, the Swans, Geelong.

Does anyone have any idea if there is a problem? If not, why has he not signed? You could imagine in current form he would have considerable market value. I have stated a number of times on here in the last two years that Max will be in our half a dozen most important players in our next premiership side.

It would be a disaster if this was to be cut short by a rich vein of form when he has only played less than 40 games

They are still trying to agree how many extra zeros are being added to his pay cheque. It keeps going up
 

I bloody well hope not!


Serious lack of hyphen on thread title.

A tiny dash could prevent many heart attacks!!

My Kingdom for a Hyphen...!!!

(That heading gave me heart failure!!! Can mods please add the missing hyphen?!)
 

He better after we spent 6 years developing and nursing his knee good

I would be shocked if he left, have a feeling old Maxy will re-sign with us.

So do I actually. The danger is another Boyd moment where the offer is just too good to refuse. You would think though that loyalty would come into it considering how much development we have put into him, and the number of injuries he has had.

I know WJ has had a considerable amount to do with him, it would be interesting to know his views.

Show me the money!

Take the money and run Max.

You have crap knees this could easily be your last contract.

I hope that is at the MFC

The club has stuck by Gawn through his injuries and shown faith in him.

Now it's time for him to do the same.

Hmph....leaving out the hymen....honestly some of the posters here obviously have a very poor squirrel grip on our language.


Would be the most upsetting departure since Farmer if he left.

Seems a quality bloke though, I reckon he'll re-sign.

Yep, Maxy better re sign because of the overwhelmingly great development we have had at this Club.

We should be happy the bloke ain't mentally stuffed like the rest of the kids pre Roos/Goody/Macca. We have an obligation to pay him exactly what the market demands plus overs after he has had to experience the last 6 years here.

I think he will show faith in he club who showed faith in him

Lol. He will show faith the same we did to James MacDonald. We don't live in a Dreamworld guys.

Jesus special! .... another pervert on Demonland!!! I'm glad I didn't take you to Canberra!!


The club stuck by him because it was in the club's best interests to do so.

Honestly, if you think the club is just a benevolent society for blokes with multiple knee injuries that they keep paying because they feel sorry for them, you are living in la-la-land.

Oh dear beat me to it BBO. I have got a fit of the giggles, got to go.

Only reason why he is with us because of his company alongside Matt Jones building wooden furniture.. I think we now have to extend Matt's contract now if we want to keep Gawn :P

I've heard Matt Jones furniture folds up and collapses to the ground under any pressure.

The only extensions Matt Jones will find is in a hair salon.

Hmph....leaving out the hymen....

Interesting predictive text ...

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
