I can't believe the middle name is Oliver. Big Max is living and breeding a culture. Congratulations to he and his wife.

Can you imagine the convo with Jess

jess  “Max I need to know you are not naming our child after Clayton”

Max “ oh, yeah, gee I hadn’t even thought of that. Just really like the name Oliver. It’s a top 10 name these days, so I am not alone” 

jess “ok, fair enough. Just as long as you promise me” 

Max conference call to the boys “boys, I got it approved. Junior Clarry her we come!”

It's a given that the middle name is named after one of our modern greats. But who is George? Who is the most famous George associated with the MFC?

I've just remembered George On The Outer. Clubhouse leader as our most famous George (apart from George Gawn, of course).

George Bickford was a champion centre player in the early fifties.

Congratulations Max and Jess on the birth of your son George Oliver Gawn.

I was thinking Oliver Petracca Gawn as my name pick. Two out of three.
Oh well….😁

2021. What a year for Max and family

This year will definitely rank in the top 20 of Max’s life.

When you take out all his knee reconstructions, smoking on the way to training and turning up half cut on his first day we can easily eliminate a few years.

Safely in his top 20.

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
