Neale Daniher will leave the eagles at some point ( early nextt year most likely ) due to an unspecified illness.

Health problems force Daniher to leave WCE

If I was a praying man id say one but in lieu of such I will wish you a speedy and full recovery. You might have an Essendon pedigree but youre always a Demon too. The very best to you Preacher .

    Sorry to hear that.

    Wish him well.

    Yes i heard this in the last hour too.

    Hope you are not ill for to long Rev. You are a good man.

    Maybe the prospect of coaching Essendrug was too much for his system.

    10 seasons a Demon.

    Always welcome back.

    Always loved The Rev. Had a little bit to do with some of the guys from that era, and he was as popular a bloke as you'd ever see at a footy club.

    Good luck young Neale.

    Sorry to hear it, Neale. Wishing you a speedy recovery!

    I met Neale in 2005 during Mad Monday. The whole club descended on the "Vineyard" in St. Kilda.

    Had a few beers with Neale over the night.

    Top Bloke, he got on well with everybody that night.

    I really hope he is alright.

    It's a tie between him and Swooper Northey for the best Melbourne coach I have seen (wasn't alive for the Golden Era of the '50's/60's). All the best, Reverend. I hope you get better soon.

    P.S. For those who might not know, Neale is a life member of the club so he is definitely a Demon.

    I met him years ago when our sons played in the same junior football team. A top bloke and a thorough gentleman. Hope he recovers.

    Doesn't sound good for the Rev. I hope he has a speedy and full recovery, he is a Demon in my eyes no matter where he's come from or where he's gone.

    Best wishes to the REV for a full and speedy recovery!

    Get well soon Mate.

    Best wishes to Neale Daniher. Rightfully regarded as a true demon for his service to MFC.

  • Quote

    Sad to hear it. He's a massive part of the MFC's recent history, he got us closer to a premiership than anyone since Norm Smith, and I've never heard him described as anything other than a top bloke. Wishing him all the best for a return to full health.

    I saw him in Darwin at the Players Presentation at Parliament House before the Brisbane game.

    He looked really well. I hope everything is ok. with him.

    A really good gentleman

    Any coach that raises us to a Grand Final is a great servant of the club. Our thoughts are with you Rev.

    (and thanks for the thread clean up Mods)

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
