Neitz on SEN

Neitz on SEN right now

Began with questions about his development, made a joke about being the best player in the history of the MFC. Was about time someone reached 300 games, very proud of the achievement.

First impressions of the club- talked about training, memories (seeing fantastic players- lyon stynes) nerves, first car at training (green kingswood)

Relationship with daniher- first game together, daniher gave neitz and farmer a huge spray (TAKE A MARK!)

Achievements- team success is what he strives for, individual honours come and go, grand final is what its all about- hopes we can bounce back for next year and be a contender

Greatest memory- grand final week 2000, amazing experience to be a part of

Neale coming back to address the club- neale- looking forward to it, looking forward to neale coming down and acknowledged his impact on his career, magnificent for his development

Interview finished with a couple of jokes and francis leach appropriately labelled neita "A legend of the MFC"

Very funny interview...

Ox was naming famous Melbourne players like Flower, Barrassi and McMahon and then asked Neita what it meant to be the first to reach 300 to which Neita replied 'that I'm better than all those blokes.'

Ox also made the remark 'you must be humbled' to which Neita joked 'nah, I deserve it.'

Finally Ox asked Neita who was the best vice-captain he had to which Neita replied very quickly 'probably Ooze!'.

Pisser.

Very, light hearted, funny interview; I was out walking the dog with my headphones on and passers by must have wondered just what I was giggling at. I particularly liked the bits about Neita and Ox's under-19 days and Neita's old green Kingswood and how he used to do doughnuts in the parkland after training.

Ox asked if Neita remembered the Melbourne v Sydney game in NZ (Neale's first game in charge)

Neita joked that he couldn't remember it

Apparently Neita and Farmer copped the spray of a lifetime from Neale. He was screaming so much, that someone else had to

Was really good to hear the banter between the Ox and Neita. Can't remember the last time i heard Schwarz speak warmly about his club

There has been massive posts about this in the past and I don't want to start anything but I believe Schwarz talks about his time at Melbourne very fondly.

If you listen to the run home you'll hear Francis Leach always asks Schwarz about certain aspects of playing for Melbourne. Schwarz's responses are almost always positive.

Schwarz is Melbourne through and through and if you need reminding try and dig up a copy of his retirement speech in 2001 from the footy show.
