This is the Marty Sheagull Show. No! Max

0:04

Ahmoson, the second man in the

0:06

jam! What about that from Max?

0:08

Big performance from Max, he gone!

0:10

And the Dubai! Oh, Max! Got

0:14

to nowhere! Barrels even

0:16

at tackle! Number 11,

0:19

the captain of the Melbourne

0:21

Football Club, Max Gorn!

0:25

Marty is here, Valos here. Good morning. You

0:28

look stunning. What a

0:30

segue. Westgate into me. I know.

0:32

Well, lucky. As

0:34

you said, it's quite ironic that they've driven a

0:37

truck up there to protest climate change. Someone

0:40

missed the memo. Max,

0:43

where do we start? Well, I guess we

0:45

start with Jimmy Webster. He's

0:47

been sent to the tribunal tonight for his

0:49

hit on Jai Simpkin. It

0:52

looked awful. Yeah, I haven't seen

0:54

something like that for... Well, I haven't seen

0:56

something like that really. It was old school,

0:58

wasn't it? Yeah, Stephen May brought up that

1:00

maybe his is quite similar back

1:03

in the Q clash from years ago. And I

1:05

think Stephen was around six to seven weeks. Steph

1:08

Martin? Steph Martin was,

1:10

yeah. I don't know.

1:12

I haven't really looked into how

1:14

a tribunal gets to where they get to. There's careless

1:17

and intentional and all those numbers. I'm

1:19

not sure what the actual week mark is, but I

1:21

think he'd be leaning towards the higher end. I

1:24

would have thought so. He could

1:26

have killed him. And

1:28

then, of course, if it's all...

1:30

Who knows how that tribunal works

1:32

anymore? But if it's all based

1:34

around how the guy is injured,

1:36

he had to leave the field. He'll

1:38

go through concussion testing. He'll miss 12 days.

1:42

Yep. He's had

1:44

a few, Jai. Yeah, he's had a few.

1:48

Three since June, I think it's been reported. Three

1:50

since June. Siblings chipping

1:52

in on social media, giving it a bit

1:55

of good night was one of the quotes.

1:58

Yeah, I mean... I'm

2:00

only going to judge Jimmy on Jimmy.

2:02

Yeah, good call. I've got brothers and

2:04

I know how rogue they can go.

2:07

So I think I

2:09

get the narrative and the story, but you just

2:11

got to judge Jimmy for what Jimmy does. Very

2:13

cool. But his siblings

2:15

are clearly simpletons. Max?

2:19

How would you feel if that happened to you? One of

2:21

your brothers tipped in? I think they

2:23

have. My

2:26

parents have probably commented on the Melbourne so when I've

2:28

been dropped, how the hell's gone

2:30

out? So

2:32

yeah, family can go rogue. Even if you tell

2:34

them don't go rogue, they can't help themselves. They

2:36

can't help themselves. Clarkson has apologised

2:38

to Jimmy Webster for his quarter-time tyre

2:40

raid during the practice match between St

2:42

Kilda and North. Clarkson

2:44

was defending his co-captain and it's reported

2:47

that he called Webster a... ..seesucker.

2:51

OK. Rhyming was better. Which

2:53

was... Mockplucker. Oh, Mockplucker. Well,

2:55

now we know what it is.

2:57

LAUGHTER It's pretty clear. No idea.

3:00

You wouldn't have all cleaned that up. It's pretty clear.

3:02

We called him. I

3:04

mean, I obviously haven't heard

3:07

of it or seen it. There's

3:09

an incident, Jack Viny, I

3:12

think he hit Brad Ebert in the jaw

3:15

and Ken Hinckley came down a quarter-time and went hard at

3:17

Jack Viny. I remember it was quite... Really? It was actually...

3:20

It's a bit different, but it got me sort

3:22

of fired up and got me going into the

3:24

second quarter. I kind of liked it. Obviously, if

3:26

Claco said what he said, it's probably inappropriate, but

3:29

I actually don't mind a coach getting

3:31

involved to a small extent. You say it

3:33

a little bit every now and then. It sounds like it's gone

3:35

over the line. But if you stay on this

3:38

side of the line, yeah,

3:40

I don't mind a coach

3:42

getting in and defending their players. It feels like

3:44

it galvanises the playing group. It just might have

3:46

had a bad choice of words. Yeah. He's

3:50

got form, Claco. He doesn't mind a bit of... Is

3:53

he talking about the junior football game? Was

3:55

that Claco with the junior football game? Was

3:57

that Gwen Archer? Yeah, she's buying her the...

4:00

Well he can do whatever he wants. But

4:03

Clarko, he grabbed the guy on the throat

4:05

crossing the bridge out the front of Adelaide

4:07

Oval. That's a tough walk, I've

4:10

done that. You know why? Because you're

4:12

in Adelaide. Crossing

4:17

the Torrens. Row up. Torpedo

4:21

over the Torrens is a good idea though. Oh yeah. We

4:24

should do that. Good idea. Are

4:26

you kicking the footy for Moomba? No. What

4:30

do they do with Moomba? They kick a footy? First kicked

4:32

one almost across the Yarra. That's Grand Final Day. Oh that's

4:34

Grand Final Day. They should

4:36

do the... What

4:40

did we call it? Over the Yarra. Over

4:42

the Yarra. They come across my desk

4:44

one day to get involved in Moomba. I post the

4:46

21 flag. Right.

4:48

And I've never heard of Moomba really. I'm a guy

4:50

who lives in Melbourne. I know what it is but

4:53

I just don't really get it. You never got into

4:55

Moomba? Yeah I never really got into it. Pete Hellyer

4:57

is the king of Moomba this year. Are

5:00

you saying you turned down the crown?

5:02

Ahhh yeah. The crown? Ahhh that's boring.

5:05

You turned down the crown. Well

5:08

it's a poor time for us. I'm in

5:10

Sydney this weekend. Yeah.

5:13

You can't be the king of Moomba this

5:15

weekend. Oh my gosh. So there must have

5:17

been something. Obviously the prestige of being

5:19

king of Moomba far ways out of

5:21

a lot of terms. It must have been like

5:23

a baby born or something like that. I find

5:25

the actors giving us an exclusive. So

5:28

that means Peter Hitch and I got your sloppy

5:30

seconds. Oh sorry Pete. Oh no. Well

5:33

maybe. Oh yeah. I'm glad. Stay out

5:35

of it. Can we bring some

5:37

ruck craft conversation on air? Sure. You

5:40

may lose a few. No but I think it's just.

5:42

Oh personally. Can you explain the new ruck rule with

5:44

the straight arm? Because a lot of people would have

5:46

missed this. Ah yeah it's just

5:48

for some reason Incentive Bounce is the only position on

5:50

the ground you're not allowed to use as straight arm.

5:53

Like you're allowed to use it in Marking Craft, tackling.

5:55

Don't argue. For some reason

5:57

just not Incentive Bounces. Who made that? that

6:00

up. Don't know but they've decided to get rid of it. I

6:03

sort of use my arm to protect my knee

6:05

because my knees been battered and bruised over 15

6:07

years of broken. I'm

6:09

not a massive straight armour like I've got pinned

6:11

for it a few times but I've also trained

6:13

now to not use it so I'd

6:15

have to train now to use it again if that

6:18

makes sense but there's some guys that really take advantage

6:20

of it so I think

6:22

it's just smart. My knee is a little

6:24

bit safer. Yeah so you can go

6:26

like that now. You can put your arms straight out.

6:28

If you block them from getting the ball when you

6:30

don't get the ball it's a free kick so there's

6:32

still some free kicks. But if you're

6:35

smart enough to be able to get yourself in a position where you

6:37

can use your arm and win the ball at the same time. It

6:40

just seems ridiculous that it hasn't always been that

6:42

way. Well I mean you can do it in

6:44

boundary throwing and ball ups just weirdly sent about.

6:47

Crazy. Clayton Oliver's been locked

6:49

in to take on

6:51

Sydney this Thursday. You'd be excited

6:54

about that Max. Yeah incredibly

6:56

excited. He's since probably

6:58

New Year's Day sort of like January 1 starting

7:00

the year fresh. He's done sort of

7:02

what's that about 10 weeks I'd say maybe

7:05

less of just

7:08

a really good block of training and being

7:10

the best version of himself and then

7:13

played two VFL games. I think there's a lot of

7:15

pressure around round one and that's what people would look

7:17

at but if let's just randomly take

7:19

this it's the middle of the year and he's

7:21

done eight weeks of not playing football and getting

7:23

to be the best version of himself. Then he's

7:26

played two VFL games. Of course he's

7:28

gonna play that round 10 game. So if you look at it

7:30

like that it makes a little more

7:32

sense but yeah I'm really

7:34

excited to see how he goes. A guy

7:37

that just wants to win back the trust of

7:39

the community and also his teammates. You

7:41

can imagine the way he's gonna play it's gonna be

7:44

pretty exciting. Caleb Windsor picked seven in

7:46

the 2023 draft max.

7:48

He's been named. Yeah

7:50

he's without putting too much pressure on

7:52

him although this comment is going to put a lot of pressure

7:54

on him. It reminds me of a winger of the 90s and

7:56

80s of the D's in Robbie. It

8:00

can really take the ball and

8:03

run with the ball and get 50 meters running and

8:05

they kick it to like 50 50

8:07

meters as well like an Isaac Smith club set up He

8:10

kicked two on the weekend against card on that

8:12

both a real ripper goals. No, look good. I'm

8:15

excited He was a pick six

8:17

maybe seven Yeah,

8:19

looking forward to what he can do on the wing Blake house He's

8:22

the best of the stories. I think not

8:24

for you here. Like he would have loved

8:26

to debut in his first year But this is third year He's

8:29

been behind Michael Hibberd and he

8:31

plays a very similar role. So He'll

8:34

probably I mean good chance to go to Isaac Heaney

8:36

at some point or a papley or something like that

8:38

one of their dangerous smaller forwards and Play

8:41

a really important role for us. You're taking

8:43

on Brody Grundy. That'll be exciting. That will

8:45

be fun Still talking about

8:47

it His

8:53

first game for Sydney obviously Will

8:56

he do the bulk of their rock work or they gonna

8:58

share that around what's this there is a

9:00

there is a play that Lattoms their second rock.

9:02

He was actually pretty good in there in their

9:04

practice match I'd find that

9:06

quite funny that Brody leaves and plays his first game

9:08

as a double rock So

9:11

Laddums could play as well and he's a really

9:14

good player, but Brody Going

9:17

back to the era when we used to play each other

9:20

He was not much of a talker quite

9:22

serious out there So I'm presuming I'm not

9:24

going to get much from him during the

9:26

game But I was thinking

9:28

about texting him on the way in today just to

9:30

say good luck and hope that you guys well

9:33

We are we are great mates. We haven't spoken this week yet

9:35

So I thought I might be the guy that just sends

9:37

you the text and just see how he goes and always bring

9:40

Yeah, I hope I hope he plays well when we

9:42

win by 20 points Playing

9:45

emoji He

9:48

said get anything okay, you think why do you send me

9:50

that? Why

9:55

would I send that to Brody Tyler?

10:00

Adam's is missing Luke Parker

10:02

has a broken arm. Okay,

10:05

Callum Mills shoulder. They're

10:07

all missing. Mills is out for a little bit

10:09

long time. Yeah. Adams got

10:11

injured on the weekend Parker the week before I

10:13

think I knew all those all those three

10:16

I don't mean it doesn't take away from their midfielders still got golden

10:19

almost one the brown low Chad Warner

10:21

James Jordan has gone over from us

10:23

and playing some really good football. Yeah,

10:25

so and we've got some guys out as well. I

10:28

think with cosy and and petty

10:30

so we don't have the big two forwards. So

10:33

I'd say it'd be relatively even in terms of

10:35

guys out of the team. They're probably slightly

10:38

hollow highly regarded their guys over

10:41

our but internally we rate and Harry Petty is probably one

10:43

of our better players. They're forecasting

10:45

a sellout at the SCG just quickly round

10:47

zero like don't like you'd hope it'd be

10:49

close to a sellout I get we're not

10:51

a massive drawing

10:54

crowd in New South Wales but I

10:56

think a few people flying over. I like the

10:58

fact that we're now one of the big four

11:00

teams to go over the Sydney or Queensland to

11:02

do these games. I said

11:05

to you it's a game that no one asked for Melbourne be Sydney. But

11:09

they've got the opening game says on a Thursday

11:11

night opening over the season you expect Sydney

11:13

fans to turn up apparently got two million of them. Biggest

11:16

country biggest biggest crowd of the country. So hopefully

11:18

they turn up and we play in front of

11:20

a full crowd. Who

11:22

else is in round zero William? We've got

11:24

Brisbane and Carlton on Friday. Collingwood take

11:27

on the Giants in Sydney and then

11:29

the Damian Hardwick battle Gold Coast and

11:31

Richmond. What

11:33

an awful game of football. That's a good

11:35

game. You looking forward to that one mate?

11:38

I probably won't watch it.

11:41

I will watch Brisbane, Collingwood and

11:43

Collingwood though. They're both

11:46

prelims. John Collingwood will be a

11:48

belter. Yeah. Yeah. John's gonna have a

11:50

very good season I think. Is that right?

11:52

I think so. You watch this. Sorry

11:54

and you are? Mate the boys

11:59

are talking. I agree giants will

12:01

go well. Well

12:10

that's lovely to see you Max

12:12

play well mate and we'll chat

12:14

hopefully. Well we'll see you next

12:16

week. Yeah you will. Yeah beautiful.

12:19

Is that ok? I'd love to. I

12:21

just wasn't sure because you're not playing. I wasn't sure if I was

12:23

ever coming back enough to the grilling I got last time. I

12:25

love it. I love it. And

12:27

you didn't tell us about Bryce or what happened 20

12:30

minutes later you could have let us know about that. I

12:32

walked in and said I have an exclusive but unfortunately I

12:34

can't give you a exclusive. You did say that. Yeah. You

12:37

could have said that. There's something brewing. There's

12:39

something brewing. The Mardi Shigal Show.
