The man Neitz

Featured Replies

I'll admit to a man-crush.

I'm not interested in what I heard on the footy show last night from Jack Watts. More important and far more inspiring to me was the couple of minutes we had with our former captain, games/goal record holder and genuinely humble character who is David Neitz.

If I was Jackson or our new Pres, the first call I'd be making is to the great man himself, My sole intention would be to try and tap into that character, passion, humble persona and aggression for the cause (the footage of Neita destroying opponents gave me goosebumps). It's time to get Neita off the sidelines; the impact he could have on the young guys coming through is immeasurable.

I can only hope that the brief footage and interview that Jack Watts witnessed made him ponder exactly what playing for the MFC meant after his earlier petulant dribble .

"I think there's reason for optimism going into next year, but as a club we need to be sure we're united."

Unite us again Neita

 

He brought absolute heart and passion to the MFC. Some we desperately lack since he left.

 

Was my favourite demon to watch!

Loved them massive hits, and 55m bombs


Is a chance for the board, either him or Paul Hopgood, both are doing a lot behind the scenes.

What a contrast in men. Nietz a pure champion. Watts unproven overated.. Watts must have rocks in is head thinking Melb will Hurt if he leaves.. (I hope he stays) Given that first has come on and hogan is being likened to the greats (lots to prove) but from what I've seen at vfl looks every bit a gun!

It was a hell of a contrast between Neitz and Watts on the footy show. It just reminded us all of what the club was like 10-15 years ago. Amazing that they managed to stuff it up so badly in such a short time.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
