I'm with you FireIn. Nev was back to his courageous and reliable best today.

he'd been crunched badly in the first few games too.

So resillient and great to see him bouncing back.

    I know we've disagreed on some issues but spot on.

    Great game from the great man today. 

    I just love him to bits. Such a fighter and a class act!

    Always gives a consistent effort, regardless of form.

    He's come a long way. Of all the players of the really bad times, you wouldn't necessarily have expected that he'd be one of the survivors. But he ended up out-lasting some much more skilled players just through his tenacity.

    Loved his attack on the ball and the player. Gaining more confidence each week.

    Very rarely post but an avid reader of the forum. Nev’s Game today was reminiscent of the great Gavin Wanganeen, won the ball in the air, on the ground contest after contest. Quite simply watching him today was like watching a virtuoso performance of a master at the absolute top of his game. A must for All Australian.

    Just finished watching the Jarrah ( SIGH) highlights and there was Nev, playing as a forward. There was Mr Jones, Mr Watts, but the guy who caught my eye - apart fro Jarrah ( SIGH) is nev. Love the guy so much.

    He was so easily our best player that it wasn't funny today. Nev's game today was 3 votes. He was simply magnificent.

    BOG today. After a slow start to the season, he's worked into ripping form and will surely be All Australian this year. What a brilliant small defender he's been the past few years!

    You (the Royal we) need to listen to the “Inside Melbourne” podcast from May 24. “Steady as she goes” Neville is the guest and a really good listen.

    He could have been lost to the Dees and AFL footy... today he was the star of the show. Why a gun.

    As much as I said I wouldn't, you've got me wanting to watch those highlights. Where Jetta has come from is as much a reason to be amazed as how good he plays as a defender these days.

    After Lever went off, he took on his role. And played his own. Almighty effort.

    Was amazing today.  Thank you to those that threw him the rookie lifeline 

    :roos:

    Roos watched Jetta play in last few games of 2013.  And, as they say in the classics:  the rest is history.

    Just hope we sign Nev up asap.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
