Ben...Ben....Ben........Ben

?You're an idiot ?

[Ethan Tremblay 30,878]

A good example of why some people shouldn’t be allowed to have opinions.

He's clearly forgotten him, which makes him even more incompetent really.

[beelzebub 23,380]

Its clearly a week for looking like a [censored]...Mark Z says hello?

Malcolm sings..... something ?

[Dante 2,739]

Not only is Max not included he, more or less, has Jarrod Witts as the one pushing to get in to the top 8.

Then he goes on to say that the reason Martin was so good was the absence of Ryder and the reason Nik Nat was so good was the fact he played mainly against Blicsavs who rarely plays in the ruck now.

Max had great figures on the weekend against a very good and former AA ruckman in Goldy, the others were playing against part timers and Max would have had 100 taps against that opposition, provided there were that many contests, of course.

It won't take our words to show the football World he is an idiot, his own words condemn him to that.

I whacked him on Twitter. You'd be better off calling him out on SEN though. They employ this dud too.

He would be back to back All Australian if not for injury.

Currently sitting third in the coaches votes and dominating games.

Not in the top 8 ruckmen in the comp.

Ok then.

Seriously, I cannot understand why some get so outraged. It has no bearing on Max’s rucking ability and no bearing on how he is perceived by his teammates or opposition... so what’s the big deal?  An incompetent journalist? It’s not as if a new species has suddenly been discovered; it’s a part of the job description.

[Pates 9,660]

There are no words. Does he not have an editor that has to read and check the article? 

That is an embarrassing fail that should never have made print. 

[beelzebub 23,380]

I'm not outraged. I find it funny.

I take nothing from the media as being particularly relevant to my well being

[nosoupforme 3,085]

HA HA ..... THE AGE!  which planet are you  from?  Herald Sun should buy the age and then sack all the sports journalist they have there.

Maybe Max could be the sports editor .

[Richard Tionary 145]

I truly hope that it was just an oversight, or else this jokers contact should not be renewed.

Yeah but the Robbo would be 'chief football writer' of 2 papers.

Not sure the Australian public is ready for the drunken one to have an even wider reach.

[daisycutter 29,622]

what can you expect from the age for sports journalism

they don't even have the evening sports scores anymore.....hopeless, especially considering the increasing number of night games across many sports

[Robbie57 2,022]

Damn stats....so misleading.

Made me laugh, bit like Chris Judd claiming Kreuzer is the third best ruckman in the league...

Look from that that this weekends clash between Max and McEvoy should be a cracker.

[Demonland 72,236]

Looks like The Age [censored] up. 

 

[praha 11,240]

He admitred that it was a mistake and simply forgot to include him.

But how? It would be like forgetting Ben Simmons in NBA Rookie of the Year contention.

[Wadda We Sing 10,685]

Huh?

[TeamPlayedFine39 8,508]

Wait... what!?

Is that the level of research and preparation that goes into these articles??

If my boss saw that, I'd be out on the streets by close of business.

 

However... even is he is that shoddy in his preparation, where was his editor in all of this?

[Hot as Hell 466]

So Max does not rate. Mmmmm. 

I guess this is what happens when the media scrum is so large, that it includes and publishes opinions with even LESS common sense than some we see here on Demonland.

He's admitted he made a 'mistake'  However I'm not sure how you could write the article and make that mistake.  

Although I did get a speeding fine at 1am the other day on a road I've driven a million times so I guess it does happen
