Has to be Neitz however as i have mentioned previously Schwarz would/may have taken it if his legs stood up.

Schwarz at his best (1994 season) probably nudged Neitz at his best.

Remember in 1994 the Ox kicked 9 goals in the final home and away game and then followed up with a dominant week 1 final against Carlton. That was the zenith of his career right then and there.

However Neitz had the far better career, is an all time Demon legend and has to win this quarter final.

and what a zenith it was. Losing schwartz remains one of my big demon griefs. Losing Jakovich and Charles all around the same time was rubbing raw salt into the wound. Has to be the unluckiest period of time with injuries to stars we've ever had

Schwartz could've been our Wayne Carey, once in a generation type player. His knee reco's reduced his overall impact over his career so for me it has to go to Neitz. 

What a great combo they were though!

(Slightly off topic, I can't work out why we haven't got either of them as kicking coaches at the club. Both of them had awesome technique and penetration on them!)

If you think I'm being over pedantic ... do you like it when people stuff YOUR name up?

I'd edit but I can't so......?‍♂️

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
