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.

Great stuff! 

 

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 added an interesting snippet between McAvaney and Roos after our big win in the 1998 Qualifying Final

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.

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.
