Recalling the Neeld era is painful. It represents the absolute nadir in terms of footy department disfunction and on-field ineptitude. It provides a case study on how not to run a footy club
I understand why people want to consign to history and forget about it but we must retain the memory and remember the lessons lest we repeat the mistakes again
Neeld was a disaster. Named the 2 jacks as co captains, young and inexperienced players that should never have been put in that position. Put the senior players noses out of joint straight away. The single worst coaching decision by any coach of any club in my time watching footy. Let’s not ever do that again.
