    Neale Daniher's first season as coach was probably one of the most memorable at the club in the post 1964 period. The two players who stand out for me from that season were Jeff Farmer and Garry Lyon, neither of who were in the picture with the Rev. I'll never forget that mark the Wiz took standing on Garry's head against Richmond.

    Probably made a bad choice about where to go for their last meet up so this time they didn't worry about consulting him.

    Helpful contribution Einstein.

    Chris Heffernan.

    CH, well there you go. I would have said he was there under false pretences myself. What was it one year of mediocre rubbish with us then off back to the Bombers as I remember it! Maybe I have it wrong.

    Heffernan gave us very little. Great physique but didn't use it and turned the ball over badly. For some reason he was a Sheedy favourite.

    Or is that mop Shaun Smith?

    Great photo but I only thought rappers had entourages. ;)
    Nice to see the boys all behind Neale. He and Swooper were the equal best coaches I have seen at the club in my time. His time was up in 2007 but what wouldn't we give to get that feeling back where we went to the footy and knew we were a 50/50 chance or better to get the chocolates on any given day and against any given opposition?

    3 years and 47 games with us producing serviceable footy at best.

    Shame as Chris was a Demon fan as a youngster.

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
