on this fine Monday morning Max gone Melbourne demons morning thank you for coming in weird costume you've decided to wear to Mad Monday yeah Mad Monday is not a thing anymore it's done what it's unfortunate than Christ I retired it's happened it used to be the best day of the year no today's the quietest day of the year now and I'm wearing casuals Lululemon of course yeah so what do you do today we uh no today is a bit of meetings so we'll go in and um talk about um my year and then I'll do some um talk about everyone's year with Goodie and richel at some point and yeah your year not bad rest of them could do better that won't be the angle I go at but um pass on my thoughts you take this in from me if you need a character reference we are happy and here to help I don't know what the rest of you've been up to but I've nailed it yet again and then medical as well so my ankles I limped back in today so my ankle I mean after a couple of days standing on it it hasn't helped so um I'll see how my ankle pulled up bad bad at this stage and then um then away I go can I ask you about Friday night because obviously you know Friday Night Football but there wasn't a lot on the line unfortunately for either of the teams and then as it was all about to be over this season that hasn't been probably ideal for you it's fair to say it was about to be over and then the weather comes in and delays it for another 30 minutes was there a discussion in the sheds of like maybe we should just go and shake hands and just be done with this well there was something on the line technically cuz Collingwood actually at caugh a time their 150 Point win was looking like it could be a chance it was 40 it was 40 to to one um but no we we fought back there in the second quarter and showed a little bit um no I that's my third time I've been involved in the fourth quar weird so you've had two lightning and a power outage power outage yeah and I remember Xavier Alis asked me uh he was boundary riding for Melbourne West Coast in the Lightning game and he asked me at the end of the game um Sonic along the lines of do you take any learnings for next time this happen and I laughed in his face and I said this is not happening ever again and it's happened again I took no learnings so is this an official apology cuz X-Man is Triple M Zone in per yes I um no I still will take no learnings there's no there's no way I'm going to be involved in four okay write that down DC there is no way I'm involved in four I saw the lightning and it happened and then it was about 5 minutes later I'm like geez that's taking a long time for us to finally go off but when the lightning I was next to Dusty camera at the time we both said surely not and then it happened and we walked off and I think it was 8 minutes of game time was it yeah and they've got to get the two of you off first because you're the tallest so you're in the most danger correct I I I know you're funny but a tall joke I wasn't sure wow okay Max sorry no no it's all good it's all good we'll give you a cuddle after jet are you going to be my girl we also have round uh the first week of the final we'll talk about that we know the fixure I know get up all right do you want some cake would love some all right we'll get you some cake this is triple do you want to do the fixture for the first week of the finals or do we need to give Max some more time are you okay with this Max I'm in you're fine I think we firstly say thanks for coming in it is a massive effort so well done to you and we're going to talk about things that you would have loved to have been a part of but you're not so uh thank you for sitting through this with us thank you no worries okay Thursday second quality ifying final Port Adelaide versus jalong Adelaide oval 740 we got dates and times and everything yeah just broken oh so the Thursday night game is Thursday night footy is back for the finals in Adelaide Home game how's Port Adelaide's mascot going to be hope the mascot will with a head injury yes hopefully be back for this one bill brownless can interview him back to health I mean hope Saturday podcast if P get up you know Ken gets an opportunity to boo some of the fans at home I can picture jalong being really good at adad oal can you for some reason I can just see it yeah okay just Vibes yeah Vibes although Port beat jalong in jalong this year so they've got the that's a good game that's a fun game that's a great game to start it off on AFL yes I mean you know even just that whole Ken hinley was a jalong legend there's just that it's got a good storyline to that it does so Friday night footy will be the big one but who is playing will are you ready you're playing Bulldog's hathorne MCG 740 Friday night MCG y the one over the line no so yes particularly with the lack of MCG games like had to that was always going to be so that was the third option so they wanted it to be in Bat then Marvel bat take the walks down to bat that's what we'd like this is Max how do you feel about this because obviously haon seem to be the absolute form dream team of the competition Y how do they go against the bogs they've had a win yesterday by 120 odd points mhm in the rain yeah that's they're in incredible form incredible form um yeah it's going to be tough but so are doggies that's a that's another AFL well done that's a great game did they get do they pack that out yeah surely I mean yeah with all those hon fans uh Saturday Twilight 3:20 swans Giants scg I mean again Sydney Derby for the incredible so I think I think uh correct me if I'm wrong this might not be how it works but the team that's seeded number one sort of get to pick their fixture a little bit they get to throw in what they want so they've wanted the Saturday Aro game by the sounds of things yeah okay and that's it's very Sydney it is very cing but it's also become a very good time slot yeah it has yeah popular amongst the uh fans but also the TV people the right well you know the thing is too all the swans like players can then you know get back to Bondi after the game and all the gws players can get back to Bondi after theame all Paramount Rush uh Saturday night at the gabber Brisbane Carlton for the first elimination final that's good too cuz that's the repeat of last year where Colton kicked like five goals six goals in the first quarter and looked like they were going all the way to the Premiership they won the game in the first quarter right we need to listen to Max more though because your predictions for Sunday football was exactly how it happened nailed it I could just smell both teams losing yeah for some reason that's a hard game to win even though you got everything on the line I think that's why it's hard to Wi you just maybe you're trying too hard um St K to we watched the last quarter um yesterday that was saints were playing unbelievable footy as well incredible it was a great game and then port with nothing really to play for we've been in that situation as well where like your spot can't change on the ladder but then the coach always says you can't turn on on and off you have to go hard and that's what port did and paor Freo that was hard to watch for Freo that was really hard to watch I mean it was harder to watch for Cal to be honest that was it was doggy Giants was the let down unfortunately not for me I love it how was the cake uh is there any carrot in that is there was sugar it was nice very delicious that was a drive by I've had my second piece of carrot cake so far this morning so everything's fine but Max can I talk to you about obviously Nick deos was playing well the both the deos did you a little bit the guys with the ball kicking it to each other hand passing it to each other it was those guys but Nick deos obviously going into the brown low final round some of the biggest guns in the competition had huge games Loy Neil probably had a best on ground Crips was huge like he was you basically tried to put Carton on his own back Bond maybe didn't get votes on the weekend if it's still a live chance going into the final round do you have a sense of who who you think might get the brown L this year yeah if I was uh if I was a letot of bit which I'm not um I think I'd lean towards don't say that and wink at me i' lean TOS Loy Neil yeah yeah I'm leaning that way to win three aru and he was best on on the weekend as well best on Yeah by a mile he's quoted by saying it's his best year oh okay so he's putting pressure on the doesn't have the same amount of players getting votes off him as well I reckon lucky well I think this could be the fun part because the Collingwood game that you played in against your side it could be a deos but Josh was also very very good in that game the same with Patty Crips Nick Newman was outstanding so you might be thinking three for those two but it may be the two votes how many times do you reckon Nick Newman has stolen votes off Patty Crips this would be the first it be his bloody last do you en Joy getting dressed up and do you wish it was a bit more the dress up the dress up I don't necessarily enjoy um do you wish it was free dress uh yeah I do a bit I've got seven or eight I mean must be nice i' got seven or eight tuxes just sitting at home there's not many times you can wear that to different places and I always get a new one every year um because I just put on so much size every single year will um so I changed same but I actually I actually really like the vote for some reason I like sitting there for the vote last year was pretty cool like it got down to um extremely close to see who was going to win um we've had a live chance the last couple years I don't think we'll have one this year with track um he might be winning around 11 but then he doesn't play again um so yeah play again for the year or ever uh just yeah sorry he might he might come back no I'm expecting track to come back and play some play some good foot football that was a joke you didn't have to explain that yeah I know but you got to be careful got be careful with everything you say about you can be quoted like they might not even get any of this in and just hear me say no he won't play yeah and that's what we'll turn around Chris if you that's a tile now on Instagram headline up this song just happened to be there got nothing to do with anything Rosie honestly it's called Another One Bites of dust y I'm aware of I'm aware of this triple in breakfast what are you going to do with your time though Max before we before you go away are you holidaying it I'll linger around for September I'll yeah I'll I'll come say hi every Monday um and then October I'm going to pop up north um drive up there but not Camp as we've talked about so like fishing I'm not a fisherman I actually um my father-in-law is a mad fisherman and always wants to take me out of the boat and I've said no this whole time um I hate everything about fishing okay I hate being on the boat I hate putting the rod in the water I hate catching a fish I hate baiting the pudding bait on on the rod I hate Wheeling it in the pressure of wheeling in I hate taking the fish off the hook and I hate the fish being alive in the boat and then everything I hate it all and the scaling the fish afterwards he hates putting the rod in the water
