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 ...

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
