The bravest footballer to ever play

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.

  • 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.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
