Agree Monbon what a man, he is very smart, deep and aware. I love his honesty and desire to help build and maintain a safe workplace for all teammates and to live to the four core values that the club is built on.!!!!

Poor old Max needs to wolverine his ribs with adamantium, to protect himself from the countless blows he has sustained these past few years.

How many frees has he been awarded because of this and how many players have been suspended for striking/rough conduct? Oh that’s right, zero. If he was wearing a Bulldogs or hoops jumper it would be a different story.

Maxy, a living legend ... great leader. I had a strong impression earlier, having read his book at the end of the Premiership achievement, that he really cares about the team, its individual components, and sets examples and marques of behaviour, and thereby, links components of the MFC to these standards. All these matters are achieved with humility, thoughtful care and observable benchmarks. The team has only benefitted from his extensive inputs and examples.

Needs a metal plate inserted at the back of his skull. Disgusting how the umps seem to miss the constant punches to the back of his head.

Great pod, thanks!

Out of every player on every AFL list, Max would be my first choice as skip.  We are so lucky to have him!

Love the interview. What’s going on with the pronunciation of “Petracca”, we saw Christian mouth “it’s Pet-rah-ca FFS” at the Brownlow but in this interview Max says “Petracka” about 30 times. Is he baiting him? 

Well, he is a bogan! You can't teach Ozzie Bogans new tricks!!!!🤣🥰😍

It's like the North Fitzroy shoppers who call Piedemontes PIE demontes...

Loved the time he smacked that ball to the shouse

Should start up an award and name it after Max. The player that got the worst deal each week from maggots...

They are pretty hard to miss FITB. They just don’t care.

Maybe a spiked headband would eventually deter a few?

Maggots don’t give a damn.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
