    No ☹️
    Which is unfortunate because he was playing for a charity and the other contestants weren’t. He had Neita in the audience as his person you bring along with you and he was playing for the MND charity Daniher Drive which I think he and Neita and some other past players founded.

    I really liked Rigga when he played for Dees, saw him and Neita on Tipping Point as well. We were just talking about that group of players, have we ever had a nicer bunch of kids at the club at the same time before or since, of course time will tell with our current bunch but we don’t really know them yet.😁💕

    What a machine pumping those pistons and launching from 50 on the run not a better sight in footy.

    Damn I worked on last season of Tipping Point, I 100% would've made sure to get a pic with him and Neita if I'd worked on that show day!

    Fun show, good people all throughout.

    No "Leon Chelly"? Maybe it's just the Italian names but I always think of one and am reminded of the other. I'm pretty sure one commentator got confused once and thought Andrew Leoncelli's surname was just Chelly. (And of course there have been other names like that such as "Mark-who", the 80s Carlton player) I'm pretty sure Leoncelli was on TV in recent years too as a now real estate agent discussing the market( or something) on maybe A Current Affair

    I was babysitting my friend’s 4yo boy and we were flicking through a footy mag and he pointed to a pic of Nic Naitanui and said, “who’s that?” I said, “That’s Nic Naitanui.” He looked puzzled, took another look at the pic then asked, “but where’s Nat and Nui?” 😅

    I know there's more names like that. But for the life of me I can't remember exact names. And it wasso amusing in primary school that there was a Gary Sidebottom ...his wasn't even made of steel! 😁

    Side(bottom?)-tracking even further, there's the odd player who must have had Rev. Spooner officiating at their christening!

    Dom Tyson?

    Years ago someone wrote into the Footy Show’s Sam’s Mailbag segment asking if Dickfos was any relation to Michael Voss 😅

     

    Fun Fact: the bearer of our biggest flag in the cheer squad, a crazy passionate Dees diehard named Dylan Sidebottom is a cousin of Steele’s.
    And another very involved cheer squad member has a mother-in-law named Shaz and she’s the leader of the Bulldogs cheer squad. Too much sleeping with the enemy for mine. 🤣

    • 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?

      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?
