Collingwood milestone man Brayden Maynard has given a sobering interview after his side’s euphoric one-point win over North Melbourne, sharing the news that his close friend has passed away. The 200-gamer is celebrating one of the greatest comebacks in AFL history after the Magpies came from 54 points down to shatter North Melbourne hearts on Sunday. But he remains in mourning after losing a mate in recent weeks.
The previous time Melbourne and Collingwood played, Maynard’s collision with Angus Brayshaw in last year’s qualifying final led to a controversial tribunal case, where the Collingwood player was cleared and went on to play in their grand final victory. But it effectively ended the career of Brayshaw, who was told by doctors to retire because of repeated concussions caused by head knocks.
