Once again love them both but Neita has to be in our all time top 10...!!!!!

 

Just saw the final vote on Jones v Lovett

almost 4-1 in favour of Jones... strange

Anyway Neitz by the length of the proverbial straight in this vote

Interestingly, we’re seeing a bit of a discrepancy in the Demonland votes and the social media votes.

I doubt we will in this one though.  Robbo was a very good player and a fan favourite, but Neitz is an MFC great.


Robbo spent as much effort spoiling Neeta as winning the ball himself. Think of how many times he joined the marking contest and made it harder for Neeta. Neeta would have kicked many more goals if not harassed by Robbo (where were the coaches?).

Neeta's record is unsurpassed at our club.

Neitz for me.

This one hurts.  I love Robbo.  He was one of my favorite players in his day and I have so much respect for the work he put in improving his game and leading the attack in some pretty lean times.  Sadly though those figures up at the top of the page speak for themselves.  There's no category Robbo excelled in the Neitz doesn't top him except for mark of the year nominations.

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

    Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

    The Casey Demons secured their first win of the season by the narrow margin of four points against the Box Hill Hawks at Casey Fields on Easter Sunday morning.

  • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
