Best.

1000 hit outs exactly

Full credit to this bloke, he was hurting after missing out on finals last year. Was overseas for 6 weeks post season and trained everyday, took his game to another level from his 2016 season.

Gun. Hopefully he’s a September man, too...

And confirmed into the AA squad for 2018. No surprises - he deserves the starting ruck position.

Well deserved after putting in a hell of a preseason to get himself as fit as he's ever been. Onya Maxy!

Formalities.

Funny on Sunday, I thought Lobb would test him cheating forward the whole game (Lobb was offering nothing defensively, was clearly instructed to try and run off Gawn as much as possible). Lobb started well too then Gawn just absolutely took him to the cleaners...

We are not worthy.

 

[Crimson Azure]

Needs 37 hitouts to be the first player to get 1,000 hitouts a season (excluding finals).

Gets 37 hit outs exactly.

Max is trolling us.

 

[Simon_Says]

Is he Alpha MvP

Clarry equal 5th as well. Never imagined we would have 2 of the top 10 in any award.

What will you do when he wins the Brownlow?

Given he didn't ruck in the last 12 minutes or so, would suggest he was rested a bit once he got there

Gets 37 hit outs exactly.

Max is trolling us.

Guess what his first number was when he started?

 

[Scythe94]

Any danger the AFL puts something on social media about this? I’ve been looking forward to the inevitable whinging from the filth.

 

[Snake_Baker]

A worthy winner.

100% deserves it.

 

[RedmanWasHere]

Guess what his first number was when he started?

Guess what number Jim Stynes started with.
Guess his Brownlow Medal year.
Guess Max's birth year.

When we went to the 2009 draft with picks 1,2,11 & 18 who would have thought we would get our superstar player at pick 34?
