Legend of the club for sure.

But I'm sure how many games he will play in 2021. His tendency to lead with the head was a worrying trend in 2020 and a real sign of significantly slowing down. 

For some reason, I can't seem to edit my earlier post. I meant to say "But I'm NOT sure how many games ...."

Not my clearest work, but there bears aging intrigue.....

Let me suggest that you re-read and if necessary, edit what you intend to post, BEFORE hitting the Submit Reply button. It will hopefully save a lot of confusion.

Thanks for that HT, I sometimes forget which forum I'm on. 

Would make  great defensive coach when hes retired you'd think...  hoping he stays at the Demons in some capacity.  We need leaders and he is certainly one.

It's massively important that we keep Nev involved in the club after his playing career has ended whether that's in a coaching capacity or a part of our indigenous program.

As an aside I'm so happy for him that he didn't end up going to the Pies with everything that's going on there, I can't help but feel he would be trusted straight in front of the cameras for comments had he been there right now.

I don’t care in what capacity it is but from the outside I think he is some who would be very beneficial to keep in the club, whether that is in the “soft cap” or footy dept or outside of it he just seems to show leadership. Nev is one of my fav Dees players.

the role that springs to mind is similar to the role jamie bennell holds at WC in a relations/player welfare role focussing on strengthening ties with aboriginal communities and players. i know we have whelan at the helm at the moment and tough calls will have to be made with covid budgets but here's hoping we can fit them both in + im sure jonesy wants to stick around too

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
