The Reverend, Neale Daniher, addresses the team after Final win

Featured Replies

 

'Neita, Neita. Whadya kick? Six in a final mate. Six in a final.' The Rev sounds like a cross between Daryl Kerrigan and Neville Bartos.

 

I loved the Rev. Was shattered when he was sacked. Cried like a baby.


Thanks for posting this footage. My first feeling was sad- Jimmy Stynes now dead, Garry Lyon in a serious battle with his mental health, the Rev seriously ill and dying. Also Sean Wight gone from that era. Any effort to  reunite or gather this team must be strange.

Also happy memories of a team in which my hopes for each week, often delivered- every other year anyway!

Yea some heroes there. Thanks for the memories guys. Sad to say after last weeks total non performance, Id probably rather watch these replays then current games of the present team. We need to at least try this weekend against North. I Hope Gawn, Hogan, Watts and Mcdonald as leaders can play ok this week. Garland needed to be dropped as a message of bad form not tolerated, but there could have been quite a few with him. Go Dees. Lets hope Roos is saying the same stuff at the end of Norfs game. Hogan six gaols awesome. McDonald great pressure. Watts you helped out too. Gawn you were everywhere. I believe we can do it. (gotta talk myself into it).

How times have changed in the dressing rooms too. Talking to a pillar .......

 

Thanks waynewussell, fantastic!

 

I actually remember watching that footage back in the day which is surprising considering what I used to get up to back then.


Wow.

If anyone comes across any more snippets like this, I find it hard to express how much they'll be appreciated.

Great stuff.

Any of you posters who are feeling inspired by the Rev, if you want to rattle a tin at the Big Freeze game at the Gee to combat the Beast, let me know I can give you the contact details

That 1998 side was epic. A forward line of Neitz, Lyon, Schwarz and Farmer, Ingo and Shanahan in defence, Woey in his prime, Rigoni coming from nowhere, Tingay. 

It didn't seem fair that we could finish 4th, smash Adelaide, smash St.Kilda then come up against North in a prelim


We should have made the Grand Final in 1998, the only thing that stopped us was the ;laughable Final 8 system created by the monkeys at AFL house.

We were a better team than the Crows who won the flag yet should have been eliminated in week 1.

  • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

  • 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.
