Hopefully the extra muscle and strength helps Max cope with the knocks, dominate his opponents and lets his career sky rocket from here! Max is another example of tall skinny kids taking a lot of years to grow into their bodies...

From reading the media over the past week it seems other clubs have had some pretty serious intra club game hit outs, I wonder when we will start ramping things up?

Max has all the traits to be one of the best, if not the best Forward in the game. However we need to see some intangibles from him such as determination, persistence and grit.
Displaying traits like these, might just allow us to witness him sprinting out on a lead and not just stand in the goal square, leading up the ground, chasing and applying pressure, and sacrificing his own game to help others (ie bragging his opponent/s out of the dangerous space).
Only time will tell. But I'll cross my fingers and pray, because a 50+ goal season from a leading forward wil make us look like a completely different team.

Max is looking in fantastic condition heading into this season and I can't wait for him to hopefully put together his most consistent and damaging year at the level. If he's firing, then we will hopefully be being games of football.
Also, just saw one of the first photos of Tauru in training kit since being drafted. Does anyone know if he's still a few weeks off from getting into full training? Believe the original timeframe was February?

Had umpires down before Xmas and again on Wednesday. Ramping it up and full match sim will be very soon I would imagine.

FWIW IMO Max will never be a lead up player. He is never fitter but relies on clean quick delivery to be one on one. Our improving midfield should help this.
Tauru was on the bike prior to Christmas and was running on Wednesday so is beginning the process.

I think he needs to just be a cog in the machine... get his 2.5 goals a week and let the other forwards spread the load. 40 to 50 from Max. 25 each from Sharman, Hammer, Owens and Snags, 20 from Butler and double figures from guys like Wood, Marshall etc and then a few randoms from the mids and we are looking potent. Just need them all to stay fit now.

If they've bulked him he's not going to be used as a lead up player. That looks like they are setting him to be the pack crasher at the top of the square.

my first reaction is to hate this, but also seeing how well Thilthorpe did for the crows the second half of the season as FF gorilla gives me a bit of hope that it's still viable
