"He deserves his place amongst the Barassis, the Stynes, Flowers, Lyons, the Cordners, the Ridleys as a true champion and true Demon."

FAIRYTALE END DENIED FOR DAVID NEITZ, DEMON OF THE DECADE

"I was not the greatest, talented player going around but I think I have been a competitive player, I think I have been quite passionate about this footy club, how I go about my business and I am really proud of that fact."

DEMON SKIPPER HANGS UP BOOTS

DAVID Neitz is a humble man above all, a player who said more than once that he often doubted his right to the plethora of records he mounted up. As a realist, he would have known that it was time to go. Most players acknowledge the truth when their bodies are screaming at them and, actually, Neitz knew a while ago.

"THE BODY'S GIVEN UP BEFORE THE MIND AND SPIRIT DID"

No player in my time has contributed more to the Melbourne Football Club, and in a couple of weeks time when the club pays tribute to 150 Heroes at its 150th anniversary dinner, you can rightfully and proudly take your position at the head of the queue.

DAVID NEITZ WAS THE HEART AND SOUL OF MELBOURNE

"One of the greatest players to ever play for the Melbourne Football Club, David Neitz."

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
