Max Gawn.

Our champion. Another magnificent season by Max. He is at the peak of his powers and talk of Grundy being better is like saying Polly was better than Big John or vice versa. Loved by the fans, coaches and playing group and the whole footy community. Hopefully the Club soon realises here is the bloke to lead us to glory. Nothing so far has been too much of a burden for Max, he has the intellect to cop the blows,  work on his body shape without prompting, readjust his goalkicking and forward positioning. A reason to watch the Dees in a dismay year.

    Very good and complex question Red ………………….. I've been wondering what the future holds for him. He was a real weapon when fit and going but ………………….. he's been so cooked by injuries, I suspect he might be delisted.

    What do you know re his injury/ contract status?

    I guess we should have used the old hindsight and traded him.

    We already knew his injury record well, good player, but little use in a track suit.

    Stephen May.

    Rarely beaten one-on-one, can play on talls and smalls, able to dominate an area, good disposal, can swing forward, leadership material, with a full off-season behind him May may be our ace in the hole in 2020.

    played 6 games for the year at 27 years of age.

    Big question mark with him for 2020

    Jake Lever

    well what can you say... I suppose he came back from his ACL but his AFL form was ordinary. Probably should have had one or two more runs at VFL level on his comeback.

    Expecting  a lot more in 2020 if he is to justify his salary and trade price.

    Jury well and truly out.

    Agree.

    Suppose we should have guessed he would be injured all year.

    Not at all.

    If May stays fit next year, no question mark at all.

    If he stays fit we build our defence around him.

    Petty. Just maybe we might have found a forward. It is a big guess though.

    We already know a lot about foot problems. It wasn’t the first time he had gone down. 

    Too late now. But we cannot tie up a list position with players who don’t play a game   

    KK is another one. Too much hope and not enough calculated research

    Here's another one I'd like to know the latest on!

    Anyone have up to date info?

    Looked comfortable and at home as a defender. But was then inexplicably thrown forward late in the year and looked like a fish out of water.

    I wonder if his ability to play tall and small means he has longevity built into those legs and we can expect 5-7 more years.

    • GAMEDAY: Gold Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back at the MCG and have a massive challenge ahead of them as they take on Premiership contender the Gold Coast Suns. What do you want to see from the Dees today?

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons are back at the MCG for the second week in a row. They face the Suns off a 15 day break without their prized recruit and former Demon champion Christian Petracca. This will be a massive test for the Demons who will be facing a genuine Premiership contender. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Carlton

      The text messages started flooding in shortly after quarter time. One read: “Is Melbourne even at the ground?” Moments later, as Carlton’s Elijah Hollands kicked the first goal of the second term, the Blues held a commanding 43-point lead. By then, the Demons’ only score was a behind kicked by Brody Mihocek nearly five minutes into the game. Ironically, Mihocek would also register the last minor score of the day after the game took a dramatic turnaround.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      The Demons snatched Victory form the Jaws of Defeat as they clawed their way back from 43 points down to win by 23 points in Max Gawn and Tom McDonald's 250th matches at the MCG. Never in Doubt!!!
