  5. I doubt Max would do that but I'll bet you Selwood voted for Dangerfield.
  6. Only the Top 4 is listed. I'll give Tim the benefit of the doubt here. Mick probably has us listed as bottom 4.
  7. Playing the Dees has always been the best elixir for players returning from injury. They always play some of their best footy too. At least that's what my MFCSS riddled mind recalls.
  8. ESSENDON has failed to have a player represented in the official Captains Day photograph. Defender Cale Hooker was originally flagged as the player to replace absent skipper Dyson Heppell. The AFL has suggested it will photoshop an Essendon player in the photograph before its official release. Melbourne ruckman Max Gawn was the Dees' representative, replacing co-captains Nathan Jones and Jack Viney, while Jason Johannisen stepped in for Western Bulldogs skipper Easton Wood.
  9. If there was a closed session out at Casey today perhaps it was more important to get run into the legs of Jones and Viney than with Max. Or maybe the AFL wanted the more recognisable face of Max Gawn to be front and center for the paps.
  10. Max Gawn is representing the Demons at the AFL's annual Captain's Day.
  11. Why is Max representing the Demons at AFL Captain's day?
