NIFTY NEV

Ratings2018Jetta.png

Neville Jetta is as solid a defender as he is a citizen.

He had another consistent season terrorising opposition forwards, many of them taller than him, and was once again very unlucky not to gain All Australian honours.

Don't have enough words to describe this guy. He's a superstar on and off the field in my eyes

Neville was a little down on his 2017 form, particularly early in the season, but he is such a good player than he was still an excellent contributor across the year. 

I love that he is getting recognition, even though it is not sought, for his off field work as well.

It is fantastic to have him locked away for the next few years, as he must have been sounded out by the WA clubs in particular.

We've had some greats in this small defender role over the decades - Alan Johnson, Graeme Yeats, Matty Whelan and Nev sits very comfortably in that illustrious group.

Started slowly and just got better and better. Looks pretty injured for most of the year and runs like in wet cement.

But he is a legend.

Great season from Jetts after a slow start. His best game was the Bulldogs game at Etihad.

...Brett Bailey, Frank Davis... but he is most like Yeats onfield.

Pound for pound the best 1 on 1 player in the league. Nobody comes close!

I'd just about give him our player of the finals series for just those two acts alone, but the truth is that over the last month or so of footy in particular, Nev played some top footy all round and was one of the players to really step up to the plate, set the standard and accept the responsibility for taking us to the next level in big games.

If the All Australian team was picked after finals, Nev would have been picked hands down.

Forgot to add Jim Stynes Memorial medal for comunity service to the list of honors for the year.  Top effort by Nev in that respects and does further demonstrate the quality of his character.

As recognition for his work in the community, Nev’s been invited to a function acknowledging Victorian youth leaders where Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will be in attendance.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date.
