Neville Jetta's Nickname

Featured Replies

Posted

Hey all Demonland Faithful

I am in need of your assistance.

Neville Jetta will be the guest speaker at my sons football club (St Mary's GJFC) this Sunday where he will be awarding a player from each of our 25 teams our 'Indigenous Round Award'.

I am putting together a slideshow to run on our TV's and LED scoreboard for the occasion and would like to include Neville's nickname.

Now as embarrassing at this is for me as a die-hard DEMON supporter to admit, I am not entirely certain I actually know Nev's nickname. However, I have a strong feeling it's 'Jetts'.....but this is where I need your expert knowledge to tell me YES or NO it's ?????

Thanks and

GO DEES

Saty would be the best person to answer this I suspect.


 

I always find myself saying "fark he's tough" after every contest, so maybe that's his nickname.

On the MFC Instagram feed, they called him Jetts in photos taken today.


Pretty sure the Captain (and Ethan!) have the best handle on this.....

"Jones said Indigenous Round (now named in honour of Sir Doug Nicholls) was a time to celebrate the great Aboriginal players who have played the game.

Nev [Jetta] gave a great presentation to the players the other day and it highlighted the great contribution made by Indigenous players,” he said.

Roosy wouldn't lie to me.

It's actually BJ.

Short for the Better Jetta.

In 2016 if your name is Neville any nickname is redundant.

You are Neville!

Exactly, with a name like Neville, who needs a nickname.

I always thought it was Nev.

Or Neville if he has done something wrong...

Fantastic article by Martin Flanagan in the Age re Nev. As always with his writing it is a great read.

I concur.


 

maybe "naughty" neville from the aunty jack show?

It is manditory for every human named Neville to be nick-named Nifty. I looked it up on the Births, Deaths and Marriages website.

  • Thank You Simon Goodwin

    As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

  • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

    Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

  • REPORT: West Coast

    The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

  • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

    With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
