Max Oppy
William "Max" Oppy (14 October 1924 – 25 November 2008) was an Australian rules football player who played in the Victorian Football League (VFL) between 1942 and 1954 for the Richmond Football Club. He was senior coach of Richmond in 1956.
Oppy, who was recruited from Kew, started his career as a rover at Richmond and played in their 1943 premiership side. The following season he was pushed into defence by Jack Dyer and soon established a place in the side as a specialist back pocket, participating in a losing Grand Final at the year's end. He represented the VFL at interstate matches four times
After retiring from football in 1954, Oppy returned to Richmond two years later and replaced Alby Pannam as senior coach. They managed just six wins, finishing in tenth position, which meant Oppy wasn't kept on in 1957.
He was the cousin of Dick Reynolds and Tom Reynolds. He was also a cousin of murdered lawyer Keith William Allan.

Starz Is Back
by: Max BMy life is like a DVD, I took over the streets
Soon as I dropped that PD3
DDT niggaz off the top rope, cop coke
20/10 a piece, nigga my prices vary
Plus it was a 17-5, cherry-green lime
Plenty dick, bitches they say I'm very fine
Hit them every time, never wine or dine
Never treat these bitches like the shit
Like a faucet, nigga I'm the boss, pimp
Bigga got a closet, figure I demolish any nigga tryna ride
Put 'em in the sky
Baby please, I can run through a quarter mil
Often bounce alone, my nigga Frenchie scored a deal
Watch it, how he take it back to Africa, clap at ya
Hit you with the pump, you can call me Count Blackula
7-50 Beamer, not the Acura, Bigga got that caddy
Niggaz doin' good and got you aggy
We got them bitches in the V.I.P., mad drinks and all, all
Baby said she tryna fuck, she a slut, bitch take it off, off
Yeah, nigga the bullets hit ya face and all, all
