What a legend, so pleased to follow his career from start to finish. Still close to his team mates and their spiritual leader.

Well deserved by the great man.

Can only echo everything already said here, plus adding the absolute power of work he's done to raise money for MND and mental health.

Seeing the amount of time and effort spent helping the Reverend is truly inspiring!

He can brew too!

The great man.  The champ.  The leader. The immovable object.  The goalkicker.

THE HALL OF FAMER.

Couldn't think of a more deserving MFC player. Gave everything he had for no flags.

Champion of this great club.

Once upon a time the main game at the MCG on a Saturday was preceded by the Under 19s, followed by the Reserves.

I saw David Neitz playing in the U 19s have a shot for goal outside 50 from the south east corner of the ground.

He landed the ball on top of the goal post.

Powerful!
