    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.

    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?

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
