He liked a post that Viney made earlier today. 
But let’s not make this yet another thread about Petracca. 
 

What was that post about?

"Aye, fight and you may die. Run and you'll live, at least a while. And dying in your beds many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days from this day to that for one chance, just one chance to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they'll never take our freedom!"

Max Gawn is our Brave Heart. Red and Blue. We will win another premiership because we happen to have the most remarkable people playing all at the same time: Gawn, Petracca, Oliver, May and Lever (apologies to to all the awesome others) and the leadership (shout out to you JV and our coach SG) that will make it happen.

Imagine how you'd feel if you were told that your team which finished with 11/23 wins had just recruited Petracca and Oliver. Welcome 2025.

Like Paolo Maldini and Richard Gough the guy is meticulous in how he looks after himself and there is no reason why he can't play to a high level for the next three years.

Great stuff, Max is up there with Robbie for mine as a great player, Captain and loyal Clubman. In my opinion Max would retire rather than be a list clogger, as he is a club first guy if he thought he was done before his contract ran out.

As for George singing other clubs’ theme songs. Carlton was bad enough but the Filth theme song…considering calling Child Services 🤣😂

We must remind ourselves that this thread is not about DeeSpencer, it is about our Max! I agree with all of the wonderful, positive and loving posts here devoted to Max. It is magnificent that he will be our leader through several more campaigns. What a treat it is that we will be able to watch him ply his craft for years to come.

Reminder to self; do not give DeeSpencer a further thought!

As I’ve said before, Max has earnt the right to decide. Can’t see anyone wanting to retire him anytime soon. 
And besides, another couple of extensions and George will be able to take over.

Problem solved.

With an ounce or two with luck, this will take him past 300 games.

 

Obviously wanting another year added in 2028.

Absolutely bizarre extension. 

Leadership is going year by year when you’re 32, not asking for a 3 year deal.

Zero faith in the Melbourne list management team. 

I truly believe you are a Collingwood supporter  - you gave it away the other day when you said "we played Daicos in the backline".  And no Melbourne supporter could be half as negative and anti-Melbourne as you are.

With credit to ElDiablo14. George Gawn announcing the news

Yep, official new version of the club song must be "It's the team of... What's mummy doing?"

Any chance we can have it played while Gawn runs on for his 250th?

He’s played injured in finals the last 2 years and there’d be doubts on him carrying this injury through real pressure games this year if needed. 

His so called brilliant leadership doesn’t sound so crash at the moment either.

I expect he can play at least 2 more and every chance of 3, but unless there’s a huge discount in his 2025 wage I can’t see the upside here.

And time will tell but so far it’s hard to see where the cash will be required.

Gawn’s now got his. So Viney wants his too, when Jack might not up to the level in 26/27.

Maybe this is good, but I don’t see the amazing optimism to cheer for this like the rest of you lemmings.

Stop just stop.

We might be very happy in about 15 years that this kid likes singing the Dees club song.

Might even have a couple of brothers he can teach the song to as well.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.

    2024 Player Reviews: #2 Jacob van Rooyen

    Strong marking youngster who plays forward and relief ruck, continued to make significant strides forward in his career path. The Demons have high hopes for van Rooyen as he stakes his claim to become an elite attacking forward.

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level. One to watch in 2024. Date of Birth: 7 March 2003 Height: 191cm Games MFC 2024: 15 Career Total:  15 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total:  0 Games CDFC 2024: 6 Goals CDFC 2024: 0

    Originally an NBL basketballer with the Brisbane Bullets, he moved across town in 2019 to the AFL Lions where he played 19 games before crossing to Melbourne where he was expected to fill a role as a back up ruckman/key forward. Unfortunately, didn’t quite get there although he did finish equal sixth in Casey’s best and fairest award. Date of Birth: 23 February 1999 Height: 198cm Games CDFC: 14 Goals CDFL: 13

    Sadly, had to wrap up a great career in midstream on the back of multiple concussions which culminated in the Maynard hit in the 2023 Qualifying Final. His loss to the club was inestimable over and above his on field talent given his character and leadership qualities, all of which have been sorely missed.
