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.

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.

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.

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?

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.
