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.

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.

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

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.

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

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.

    2024 Player Reviews: #42 Daniel Turner

    The move of “Disco” to a key forward post looks like bearing fruit. Turner has good hands, moves well and appears to be learning the forward craft well. Will be an interesting watch in 2025.

    The Demon’s key defender and backline leader had his share of injuries and niggles throughout the season which prevented him from performing at his peak.  Date of Birth: 5 March 1996 Height: 195cm Games MFC 2024: 18 Career Total: 178 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 5

    2024 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.
