With Maxwell his intercept marks, spoils, and pressure acts across half back are very valuable to the team. He's no superstar but every club has players like him who contribute every week and are vital to team structure.

You can't always judge players on supercoach scores

So true, Maxwell must be one of the most ridiculed players in the league. Fact is, I don't support Collingwood but you have got to admire his leadership and as you said, his pressure acts are something that aren't really noticed but Collingwood supporters and people who understand the game know how important they are.

I'm with straya on the cats winning. The bombers v freo was a tough one for me. But going with bombers after not backing them first round and regretting it. Pies v hawks game should be a close one. Think I went for swans over roos but after the way roos played last week it wasn't an easy pick.

It feels so good having another bombers supporter here

Still crack up that you tipped against your own team.
My tipping this year shall consist of Pies = 100% win's

If I lose the tipping comp SO WHAT!! At lease I have supported my team to the death!

I'm a Richmond supporter and for us Jake king is one guy who you wouldn't give a game based on stats, and maybe the same can be said about maxwell. But as far as pressure acts and his work to lock the ball into forward 50 go, no one else on our list gives us what he does.

Maxwell is like a poor mans hodge, hodge can do everything maxwell does with leadership etc and command the backline....but if he's unfit he can go forward and kick a bag anyway.

Hmm I'm not sure I'd go that far. Interesting fact, Luke Hodge is the only number 1 draft pick to ever win a Norm Smith medal.

Shush you lol. You're a pies supporter and they generally don't suck so you always have a high chance of winning.

Holy **** wasn't that a nail biter and a half. Seriously thought bombers were going to get their asses handed to them after an abysmal first quarter.
