Stanley Mac "Max" Millen (7 July 1909 – 4 September 1973) was an Australian rules footballer who played with North Melbourne in the Victorian Football League (VFL).[1]
The son of George Robert Millen (1873-1957), and Edith Elizabeth Millen (1874-1940), née Rice,[2] Stanley Mac Millen was born at Seymour, Victoria on 7 July 1909.
His brother, Jack Millen, played VFL football with Fitzroy, and VFA football with Coburg.
He married Noreen Johnson (1915-1996) in 1937.
In 1931 he was granted a clearance from Fitzroy to South Melbourne,[3] and, in 1932, from South Melbourne to North Melbourne.
North Melbourne had finished the 1931 home-and-away VFL season with 18 losses from 18 matches.
Millen played his first game for the North Melbourne First XVIII, among six "new" players -- i.e., Les Allen, Tom Leather, Millen, Jack Smith, Dick Taylor, Jack Welsh -- under the team's new captain-coach, Taylor, against Geelong, at Corio Oval, on 30 April 1932.[4]
He died at Prince Henry's Hospital, in South Melbourne, Victoria, on 4 September 1973.[5]
