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

    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.

    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.

    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.

    I'm not outraged. I find it funny.

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

    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 .

    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.

    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

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

  • Quote

    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.

  • Quote

    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?

    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

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
