Stats
Bio
Recruited from Portarlington on the Bellarine Peninsula, Max Trewin was a powerful local talent who arrived at Geelong with a formidable reputation. He had already established his dominance in the Geelong District Football League, winning back-to-back best and fairest awards with the Demons in 1946 and 1947 before earning his chance at VFL level. Standing 183cm and weighing 83kg, Trewin was a strong-bodied utility capable of holding down key position roles and competing fiercely in the air. He broke into the senior side midway through the 1948 season, booting two goals in his six appearances, but was unable to secure a permanent spot in the lineup. Following his brief stint at the top level, he returned to country football where he remained a celebrated figure for Portarlington.
