Never in doubt. Loves club, the club loves him. Good on ya Nibbler! 

Now he can start working out how to be Nick Daicos's shadow on King's Birthday. 

Congratulations Nibbler. You have out done your ability with so many other attributes to become a much loved player and team man in many of our best years. Another flag beckons before you retire. 

I hope you have been suitably rewarded. 

PS Just ask Kossie to get things done when he's ready!!

Clearly a great clubman but as a player doesn’t inspire me & I would happily sacrifice him to keep better players.

Rarely plays well when the team is struggling but always dominates after we get on top & are cruising.

Constantly getting caught with the ball in his hands.

delighted for nibbler. Not the most skilled player but plays his role brilliantly and a great example of how hard work and application gets you a long way.

Well done Nibbler!

A hugely underrated but important part of team both from a structural and cultural perspective. I've doubted him at stages over the years, but he's proven to be a real pillar of this team. On ya Nibs

24 disposals and a goal in the Grand Final. Kept us in it in 2nd quarter.

BUT.... like everyone else,  did at least one  magnificent act during the game  - which was attracting 4 defenders to him afater receiving Luke's pass while cleverly slotting the ball to Tom Sparrow at the start of the last who was as a result in the clear.  (TMAcs greatest ever Dees shepherd in the 3rd for Sparrow's goal was another)

BBB kicks the goal to allow us to relax.

Wonderful to see him remain on Board.   27  possessions , 6 Inside 50's and 5 tackles in the important first final against the Lions  another highlight contribution.

It is so pleasing to see so many of our players commit long-term. It shows with enormous clarity what a great spirit and ethos we have. Which I largely attribute to Goody.

I hope he stays with us for all the reasons already mentioned. Also because the cheer squad wouldn’t be the same without Shazza, his mum. She’s a legend. Nonstop energy. It’s funny, she screams out “Nibba” or “Nibs” but when he messes up she changes to “Alex” as in, “Oh Alex, what was THAT?!"

This is a candidate for post of the year. Love ya @WalkingCivilWar

That’s brilliant! Such a mum thing to do

But when he messes up she changes to “Alex” as in, “Oh Alex, what was THAT?!"

At least she doesn't say his full name . . . as in Alex Neal-Bullen, what was that? I would laugh if she went with the ANB - what was that?

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
