...yet again.

Informative, open, entertaining, and positive on a lot of matters we here tend to be so negative about.

Among many, particularly loved his '5 more years' line 😊

More of this, Max!

Such a well spoken leader without the BS and the cliches.Β 
Just love to listen to him.Β 
How lucky we are to call him our captain!

Indeed. I found it amusing that he said that he had "been prepped" for the interview!!

The other captain I really like is Darcy Moore. The antithesis of a filth person.Β 

Not just the Dees who are blessed to have Max, the AFL should be on their knees thanking him for being so different to the banal, controversy stoking rubbish the footy media generally trot out. He’s a champ, he knows it, but also that his footy and his club is paramount.Β

Max is such an impressive leader. To take responsibility in the Grawndy saga while Brodie has coped so much over it shows how he does not place himself above others within the club.Β

Agreed. I really like Moore. He’s very intelligent and well spoken and comes across as doing things his own way, much like Max.Β 
Shame he plays for such a repulsive club, instead of the club his grandad played for!


I wonder if they will ever get microphones for the journos asking the questions? I guess it must be on the same "to do" list as cameras for the score reviews.

Brilliant thinking mans captain.

Clearly Ed Langdon needed more prepping - now that he has been banned for life from speaking to the media!!

Rd 22 last year was his 'All duck no dinner' comment!

  • NON-MFC: Round 12

    Round 12 kicks off with the Brisbane hosting Essendon at the Gabba as the Lions aim to solidify their top-two position against an injury-hit Bombers side seeking to maintain momentum after a win over Richmond. On Friday night it's a blockbuster at the G as the Magpies look to extend their top of the table winning streak while the Hawks strive to bounce back from a couple of recent defeats and stay in contention for the Top 4. On Saturday the Suns, buoyed by 3 wins on the trot, face the Dockers in a clash crucial for both teams' aspirations this season. The Suns want to solidify their Top 4 standing whilst the Dockers will be desperate to break into the 8.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.Β  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.Β  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.Β  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.Β

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.
