I don't normally pay attention to player interviews as they are ridden with boring cliches and straight bats. But Steven May has long been an exception to the rule and I'll always make sure to tune in when he's on. This is his best one yet IMO.

What a fantastic acquisition this guy has been, and arguably the most important piece of our premiership tilt. 

 

agree. worth everything we paid. he does bite off a bit more than he can chew with some kicks, but thats ok, i can live with that.

 

 

Yep. The unofficial Captain (of Defence)

Changed the whole style of the team along with Mr Ed

I'll have to have a listen. I tuned out of SEN a while back when Dwayne Russell kept asking the same boring questions and you could predict the answer. 


To be honest i hadn’t seen a hell of a lot of him at the Suns and wasn’t really keen on letting Jesse go. Around the time we traded for him a few posters stated getting May would be huge for us and I was hoping they were spot on with their comments since they’d seen a lot more of him. They were more than spot on, May has simply been brilliant the last two seasons.

He has come good after a shake start.

May,Lever,Rivers , Petty ,Salem..just need one more with run and with  a bit of muscle on Trent and its a backline we will remember.

Bowey & Hunt should suffice?

 

So refreshing to hear someone so honest. None of the usual banal answers. And really well-spoken, too. 

My love for this man knows no bounds.


Clayton Oliver is his favourite player.... Loved hearing that!

Hunt isn't in that stratosphere. 

They could that good for a threepeat.

We've already forgotten Jetta?

I don't know about Bowey yet

Should be our skipper, with Lever as vice.

Let Max just focus on footy. 

Nah, a MFC  Captain should have a monocle and moustache.

Lever is the man for the job.

Great interview had Garry and Tim on side in a flash they were effusive in their praise for Steven , I loved the interview as well so honest and well spoken a real on ground coach and leader.

My favourite player. Smart, articulate, tough. A born leader and a future coach. We’re lucky to have him at the Dees

Not only a great footballer and leader, but an outstanding ambassador for our Club.  His openness and honesty in the media is so refreshing.


What a fantastic interview. Every supporter of the MFC should listen to that. And then vote for May should he ever enter politics. Candid. Honest. No spin. Just a real, genuine person. I'm sad that that should be so refreshing, but it is.

I don't want to turn this wonderful thread into a racism subject but this is so atypical of the ignorance and intolerance out there. So many of the haters wouldn't even know that May is a proud indigenous man. Much like Franklin he isn't "seen" like that. Some people are just stupid and don't seem to  recognize that EVERYONE has value ( well, except the bigot, fascist, bully boys). Damn, now I'm caught in a web of my own making, if everyone has value, do bigot's, fascist's and bully boys have value?

OMG. I'm starting to sound like RM.

I agree, must be time for bed. I had no idea there was anyone who didn't know he is a proud man of indigenous heritage. And I don't see how the outpouring of admiration and support for him in this thread is anything but people showing respect to a very well liked player of the MFC.

Is that a question, an affirmation, a spelling mistake or a bodily movement?

  • CASEY: Geelong

    There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
