I thought it was heartbreaking. He had to ruck, rove, defend and work as a forward. He dis everything and almost carried us over the line.

I really felt sorry for him on Sunday having to bust his guts while others went missing.

Go Maxy

This guy is honestly amazing. Not only a good footy player but from all reports a great fella. He is the sort of guy you would have as your best man without having ever met him. And best of all he is a dees man through and through. 

We win the gf in 2019, he should be Australian of the year !


Clarry finally hits the leaderboard too. He’ll be top 10 before long

Maxy is a dead set legend

Max might win the brownlow and not make  AA team as a ruckman

I agree with Cornes. We are so lucky to have him.

MAX GAWN has been the best and most influential player in the competition this season and the Melbourne ruckman definitely deserved his spot in my round 16 Team of the Week.

I think he has a really good chance to win the Brownlow Medal.

I may make a goose of myself but it's doubtful Max will win the Brownlow

Umpires won't vote for him

Maybe if he played for anyone but Melbourne

There's something wrong with the world, though, that's for sure

I want him to win it for the acceptance speech alone. 

Equal 2nd for the Brownlow now, at $7, equal with Cripps.

Finally a Brownlow night might be worth watching for Demon supporters. 

Cant believe Oliver is paying $81 ... wow.


Imagine the speech if Gawn wins and has had a few... lots of censoring for channel 7 ?

He won't be allowed to drink on Brownlow night. He'll have a game to prepare for the following Saturday.

Yep, a few of our guys will be taking votes away from each other.

Whereas at Hawthorn, it has been Mitchell then daylight.

I dimly recall we didn't win any Brownlows during the great run of premierships in my youth and the reason why was we had so many good players taking votes off each other.    Happy to see that happen again.

Its all just a guessing game, but he currently has 16 votes on the AFL.com Brownlow predictor

Another 10 votes for him you’d think for round 22 (the AFLCA keep rnds 22-23 votes hidden to add some suspense). He was on 80 at the end of rnd 21 with Cripps on 83 and Mitchell on 87.

Mitchell had an ‘ok’ game against the Saints (might get 2-3 votes) while Cripps had a slow start to the game (2-3 votes) but the big votes will go to the Dogs. Based on that, I think another good game from Max and he’ll win the AFLCA award which is probably the second best individual honour in a season.

Personally, I’m coming around to the notion that the coaches views are superior to the umpires view - in so far as there is a better perspective and more objectivity - as  coaches teach how to influence games this have a better feel for who was influential in the myriad of different ways one can be when playing.

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
