Outstanding interview @Demonland.  Covered lots of ground, and I loved Maysie’s honesty and frankness.  Didn’t ‘sugar coat’ anything.

Sorry it took so long. Disaster struck during the interview. The bluetooth connection between my phone and my mixer disconnected a 1/3 of the way during the interview and would not reconnect. This has never happened before so the rest of the interview was conducted on loudspeak with the phone held up to my mic. The audio didn't sound great and it has taken me about 5 hours in post getting it to a point that I was happy with. I probably only lost about 10 or 15 seconds of audio but I think I did a good job of piecing it back together. On the plus side my cleaning up of the audio erased most of the traffic noises.

PS: Jake Lever was with Maysie in the car.

Thanks Andy. I loved this interview and really have only jumped on the podcasts this year despite being a DL contributor for many years.

Congratulations. Steven May, comes across as a decent bloke without pretensions and is articulate and engaging to boot. Well done!

Well that's not Disco really he is med to tall Backman. Leave the smalls to Judd and Salo and Bowser. 

By also, I meant 'and another question'. The two aren't linked.

Wonderful interview. He spoke so openly and honest and didn't give us the usual media trained answers that we normally get from players.

Great interview thanks Andy.

Steve is a great interview subject as he steers away from those footy cliches and is so open and honest.

Yeah, I’m also curious in how long he sees himself playing for. His current contract expires at the end of 2025 (33 y/o), but I could easily see grumpy old man May playing a little longer than that. Hopefully that’s how he sees it too. I feel like it’s a question he’d be happy to answer honestly. 

Great interview, Andy!

May definitely didn’t fill me with much confidence that he’d be playing past 2025 but anything can happen I suppose. 
 

The 2021 hamstring story was incredible to listen to. What a beast.

Andy, thanks for providing such outstanding content. Interviews such as this are simply not available in the commercial media.

Compliments on your excellent interviewing technique; conversant with the subject matter, well-prepared with a diverse range of engaging questions and your subject at ease. 

Great insights in Maysie and the MFC. Superb work.

What he said. Thanks again. No issues at all with the audio. Appreciate the effort solving it and putting it together.

Interesting to hear the clear separation  in roles and functions with Ric.  

Have to have a closer look at Deakyn Smith after him pumping him up so much. Must admit I have had my doubts that he would make it.

What a great interview.  Very professional and reminded me somewhat of those we used to hear on SEN years back pre-Hutchy but no longer.

How he came to choose the mighty Demons over the old enemy, the lead up to the GF & the post flag euphoria was very interesting.

Defenders needing to watch out for JVR's corkies haha!

Big thanks to Andy and the Demonland crew who helped put this together.

Just finished listening to the interview. Terrific job Andy.

Genuinely interesting from a footy perspective, with lots to unpack. 

And some laugh out loud bits (eg not being paid to develop young defenders) - he is a funny bugger, and a natural story teller.

Really enjoyed that interview @Demonland - refreshingly honest fella Maysie, genuinely feel like he means everything he says. Particularly enjoyed hearing about how they lead/instruct in the backline, didn’t realise that was the approach, it appears much more chaotic to the naked eye.

True TJF I thought that they were yelling at each other, they are actually coaching on the run keeping the backline team informed on what is happening out there.👍

Great interview. 
Does not sound like he will play beyond 2024. We need to start planning for life after May as we will still have a very good list.

He’s going to bail with 1 year left on his contract?

No. I said beyond 2024. He’s contracted to the end of next season. So he still has another season.

    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
