    Ormond amateurs are now coached by Fish Creek royalty, the legendary Reggie Hoskin. Led Fishy to a three-peat between 2016-18.

    Bloke knows a thing or two about what success looks like.

    Wasn’t Max a Richmond supporter in his younger days?

    I'm quite shocked at the business model of that site. $12 a month for just sports articles? I can get some pretty darn good subscriptions for $12. Just look at the herald sun's online view numbers since being paywalled.... Can't see it lasting long.

    That requires a subscription fee! Fairly small $1/ person.

    Basically says Gawn was a tigers supporter as a kid and Dimma keep seeing him at McKinnon secondary college and Ormand Amos. They tried to get him to the tigers via his agent but Max  had signed on for melb. Then Roos came on board. To be honest I think it is a bit of a nothing story. I don't believe Max ever seriously considered it.

    The site is a News Ltd subsidiary, so I assume any paywall hack that gets you around those sites (HS etc.) will get you around this one.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
