    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 ...."

    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: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
