The bravest footballer to ever play

Featured Replies

Neale Daniher on tv tonight. Channel 7 I think. Most likely to raise awareness about The big freeze coming up QB round.

This guy is courage personified and if you want to be inspired its worth watching.

Hope he will inspire the team to get up again like last year

 

 

 

Was Paul Callery in my book!! In a era where the biff was commonplace he stood tall and for a bloke who was knee High to a grasshopper that will do me!!

I played yesterday with a cracked rib so clearly i take the cake [censored].

In all seriouse can't wait to watch the Neale Daniher doco.

Saw the program last night. Some emotional moments. He is an incredible realist. Quite poignant when he said: MND always wins.

Daniher's MND legacy is far greater than his football achievements.  Both testament to an amazing person. 

Up there with another of our Demon heroes that faced his illness and his fate with generosity, courage and humour, Jim Stynes.

Daniher is an absolute inspiration to everyone and personifies the word courage! 

so many people in his situation would have given up but he just refuses to stop fighting.

Reminds me of  

 

 

Just noticed that Daniher has received the MEMBER (AM) IN THE GENERAL DIVISION OF THE ORDER OF AUSTRALIA in the Queen Birthday honours

Mr Neale Francis Daniher VIC.: For significant service to community health through support for people with Motor Neurone Disease and their families, and to Australian rules football.
 
Highly, highly deserved.  A great honour for a very honourable man.

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    Melbourne’s early surge of optimism came crashing back to reality in its clash with Fremantle at Optus Stadium on Saturday night. Just six days after unveiling its fun-filled, attack-minded style against the Saints, the Demons were met by a Dockers outfit determined to shut it down with a blend of speed, pressure, and physicality.
