That's massive. Onya Maxy

 

Well done Maximus! Looking forward to your rucking prowess going onwards and upwards from here!

"A lot of the guys are in the same boat – we’ve been through a lot together and we don’t want to miss out on hopefully what’s at the other end.

“We’ve got some good young players coming through – we’ve seen Angus Brayshaw this year and James Harmes and Alex Neal-Bullen and players like that – who are playing good footy and there’s Christian Petracca still to come, which is exciting.”

Shown his loyalty and faith.

Fabulous news! Go Dees!

MAAAXXXYYYY

Good on you big fella


Never in doubt!

Great stuff Maxy.

Thank god for the hyphen.

great news.


Big big news from the big big man

Well done Max.

We look forward to some poor little bugger on a stepladder trying to reach up to hang a premiership medallion around your neck.

What an important signing in so many ways. If Max continues the upward trend he provides what every team desperately needs, an effective ruckman which we haven't really had since Jimmy or Jee White or Jamar's early days. If we can pump the ball out of centre stoppages into Hogan and Pedersen and Jeffy then the skys the limit

i won't say jamar early days he really only had two good years 2010 and 2011. Now all we need is our midfleid to take advantage of his ruck work, there getting first hands but not turning them into Clarences.

Ripper ........another important piece of the puzzle locked in! Fantastic fillip for our footy club and great reward for Maxy's hard work and perseverance following a wretched run with injuries. Comfortably in the top five 'most improved' players in the AFL for 2015 IMO, which is outstanding for a young ruckman who is probably still several years away his prime. Great effort Maxy!

He was nowhere at the start of this season, or even 9 rounds into this - his 6th season. Now he is setup to play good footy from his 7th onwards.

I expected it to take this long - so don't complain about how long this has taken - this is about the time it takes for a 208cm ruckman to get going.

And, well done, look forward to the next 5 years with an excellent tap ruckman who can mark and kick a goal.

I think it's hard to overstate big Maxy's potential significance for this team. He's a massive favourite of both players and fans, a team focussed talisman who has has shown that his best footy (still only 23) can drag the team along with him. He's a heart and soul player like Jack Viney and Nathan Jones, and someone who can instil 'team' ethos and a love of the game and the club into others around him, particularly the new younger guys. A great signing of a future huge leader for this team.

Agree rpfc, he's still a few years from his best. I think he's matured early, actually.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

  • 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.
