Wish we had been able to keep Jetts at the club but happy that he has landed a job. 

You can't keep all your favourite sons and in reality it's better for them to get out and experience other clubs.

Great news for Nev, times are tough out there and these jobs are limited with the soft cap squeeze.

    Best of luck to Nev.

    Sad he’s no longer with us, but he’s a great person and leader of young people, primed to become a great development coach.

    Good on him, I think it’s a good thing for players to go a different system and do things differently. He’ll  always be welcome back.

    Congratulations Nev. Gave his all to us on-field, and to indigenous youth off-field. Good luck at the Pies.

    Good on him for moving on to different pastures after so long at one club.

    Wish it could've been another club though, but I expect Collingwood to go places over the coming year or two.

    I hate this so much, but I’m also so happy for him. A big asset for Collingwood. Go well Nev!

    Writing was on the wall with the pies, I am sure he will do wonders there. Hopefully a short sabbatical like Yze had!

    He was going to be picked up somewhere, he has so much to offer, and not only to indigenous players. 

    But did it have to be THERE!?!? If, during a Dees v Pies game next year, the camera shows him wearing black and white, I will fair dinkum vomit.

    That would make him the first person I ever admired at the Filth. Congrats Nev, you’ll always be welcome at the Dee’s.

    And Nev will be playing in their VFL side.  A very good hire from them.  All the best Nev, always a Demon.

    Well done all round. Pies needed someone of Nev’s character, and it is great for Nev to work in a different system to expand his post football experience.  I think they tries to get him last year?

    Well, he has gone to where he is MOST needed.

    100% they need credibility in this space and to build and inclusive culture for non Anglo staff/players. They choose well

    ok he’s going to be a “development coach” at the filthy feral magpies … yes with their prior racist conduct 

    I know he has to earn a living and pursue his ambitions 

    …” and play for their VFL side” in their black and white jumper

    Huge asset lost. His work with our young indigenous players was immense. Are we going to fill that role? I was completely ok with it, until I read he was playing in their VFL side, that makes me sick.

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
