For those wanting to disengage from footy until Game Day by listening to more footy content.

Thought this was very honest with some Gus humour thrown in. 

 

He's a great media performer but he also just seems super genuine, which seems to be a theme with most dees players getting interviewed this year, less catchphrase cliches and more stuff from the heart.

Terrific spokesperson for the players. Quality person.

We all miss you guys as well Gus😔

All of us want you boys to give it your best shot and bring home the flag to the best club in the world.

FOR THE RED AND THE BLUE !

As much as it hurts not being able to be there in person over in Perth, we will be shouting loud and proud with joy every goal, mark and magic you boys will bring our great team.

We are so proud of each and every one of you at the MFC club.🥰💖💙


You all beat me to the mark. Just saw his presser.

Quality person, quality footballer.

And for those who doubt his effective input into our stellar season so far, take a bath.

Have you heard Adam Tomlinson?

We are so blessed with the quality of people at the Dees. Gus is so thoughtful and considered with his answers makes us all so proud.!!

 

He’s great to listen to. His podcast with Gawny is really fun as well.

He should have a long career in media. Speaks extremely well. Cannot remember a player speaking so well.

16 minutes ago, whatwhat say what said:

i think people aren't getting the most important message out of this presser - gus is now the (admittedly self-professed) best basketballer at the club

Considering the quality of basketballers at the club I’m pretty sure he is just winding up his mates. 

Impressive young man.

Love his sense of humour too

He’s a good one Gus and is a key driver of the new culture and standards at the club. Presents very well. Love the interviews with him and Gawn and Trac and May recently. 


Agree with all the above, also add Lever, May, Lingers, Petracca - makes a refreshing change from the usual “Yeah, nah”.

I love watching Gus when the boys sing the song after a win. He’s like the band leader and really fires it up. Needless to say, I looked like him in my lounge room doing the same thing on Saturday night.

Smith and Jackson would smoke him.

Yes, your point is?

As I was listening, was thinking all the things I'd say about Gus. Then read on and found you'd said them all! Thank you, everyone:)

Would just add, through the constant and widespread messaging, I'm genuinely believing now that the players are genuinely playing for US!

Except when we lose, in which case the podcast is apparently a distraction which should be canned so that he can focus on football...

(Tongue slightly in cheek here).

One of the guys in this isn’t bad either…..wonder what became of him?


 

I think he lost weight!

I'm getting horrible flashbacks. High school was a lot of things, but mostly it was kids being better than you at stuff, and everyone being really loud all the time.

Would not recommend.

He's honest, articulate, funny, and easy to listen to. Definitely got a future ahead of him in the media if he wants it.

It love listening to the Gus and Gawny on the podcast. Gawn is also honest and funny, but not so much articulate, which actually adds to the dynamic, with Gus frequently bemused at Gawn's slaughter of the English language. Very entertaining.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
