Well done Big Max

Now bring on the real stuff


Most prestigious individual award in footy in my opinion. No one knows better about who influences the game more than the coaches. Congrats Max well deserved

The best player in the comp...without a doubt!

Oliver right up there too.

I’m really starting to believe and it feels scary!

It does feel scary. 

I’m not actually sure what it is I’m feeling, part excitement , part hope, part fear of losing in our first final, but I do believe in this team.

Just announced on AFL360!

Well done to the people’s beard!

Did the rewind on Foxtel app to see the presentation of the award. Well done Maxy!

Had to switch off half way through. Couldn't stand listening to Robbo spend 3 times as long asking questions as they take to answer. Loves the sound of his own voice! ?

Absolutely deserved. Been a long time since I shook my head at how good ruckman is... I do it multiple times a quarter watching Max. 

Incredible effort and thoroughly well deserved.  Would have to be the most accurate of all the individual award for measuring a players impact on a match or season.

Well done Max thoroughly deserved and reward for daring to want to be the number 1 ruckman in the comp. Congrats to Oliver and Brayshaw. Worth noting Harmes results getting votes in 3 of the lat 4 games. The midfield is looking more and more  A grade.

He is a f kwit. Gawny he just said how he had made it through the season without injury and Robbo asked a question about his injuries this year...

Too busy indulging in his own ego to listen to interviewee!

He literally switches off listening and looks down at his notes but you can see he is thinking about something else. How he has these gigs is beyond me. Stuie could do a better job.

Great achievement! It’s very clear that this award is up there in terms of clout. Onya Maxy!

He just asked Alan Richardson if he watched the Dees game yesterday... the guy who was coaching at the same time... ffs

I have been away for months

i had forgotten about Slobbo, i thought he might have gone. But no. 

How do such crap doorknobs get serious jobs??

It’s sad

Thats a serious award to win. Now for Charlie. Im starting to believe also....

Watching the interview now. Great to hear about his influences and the people who helped him become a better palmer down of the ball. Cited Jamar and current ruck coach Greg Stafford who was a decent tap ruckman in his own right.

 

"It's an honour to win the award... Goody gave me a call and let me know he won it in 2006."

I do like that comment.

But well done to Maxy. You forget he had to go through the 2 knee recos. Credit to him to get himself fit and roosy well done on getting him into shape. 

Just love watching this man play

  • 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.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
