    Definitely! It’s not like there’s plenty of years in the future to bestow this honour. Sadly, time isn’t on Neale’s side. ?

    Absolutely and how the hell has not even been Victorian of the year?

    I like Peta Credlin but I'm not sure how she got one.

    I'm more surprised how Bec Goddard got one ahead of Daisy Pearce. Daisy got the women's league going and is an icon.

    Incredibly happy for Neale and his family. Should have had the AO the first time in 2016 when he got an AM. Well deserved recognition! 

    Should be Australian of the Year too IMHO! 

    I'm not sure The Age understand left and rights. Unless Bec Daniher has aged 30 years since her media commitments this week.

    Keep the politics off here. Dixon and Barassi were Tories, isn't that enough!

    Well done Neale.

    Dixons wife taught me at school.

    Congrats Peta Credlin.

    Not sure Barassi counts as a Tory (in the UK sense of old style Conservative).  More a Hamer Victorian Liberal - socially progressive and economically conservative.  He'd have lined up with Turnbull against Abbott.  Pro - republic, pro immigration etc Dixon was pretty progressive for his time as well.

    Also, we've actually produced a Labor MP - Bob Miller MP for Prahran 1979-1985. Played 69 games between 1961-1965.  Alan Henderson, the old property steward was a dyed in the wool ALP man too.

    And well done, Neale.  Absolute champion.

    So well deserved. Over the past 7 years it is just amazing what Neale has managed to achieve. The fact he is still here is a massive achievement as people who get mnd only get abut 27 months. 

    He has put this on the map and hopefully one day is goal will be achieved with a cure. Kudos to you Neale. Your positive spirit is just beautiful.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

    • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

      It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?

    • CASEY: Collingwood

      It was freezing cold at Mission Whitten Stadium where only the brave came out in the rain to watch a game that turned out to be as miserable as the weather.
      The Casey Demons secured their third consecutive victory, earning the four premiership points and credit for defeating a highly regarded Collingwood side, but achieved little else. Apart perhaps from setting the scene for Monday’s big game at the MCG and the Ice Challenge that precedes it.
      Neither team showcased significant skill in the bleak and greasy conditions, at a location that was far from either’s home territory. Even the field umpires forgot where they were and experienced a challenging evening, but no further comment is necessary.
