    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

    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.

    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 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.

    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

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

      It's Game Day and Clarry's 200th game and for anyone who hates Carlton as much as I do this is our Grand Final. Go Dees.

    • 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.
