Yesterday we lost a great Australian. Neale was given a death sentence some 12yrs ago with MND. Since then he and his charity, have raised over a hundred million dollars to fight this horrible disease. When I heard of his death I shed tears, even though we all knew that this day would arrive. He will be given a state funeral. He will be sadly missed.
If the MCG isn't packed to capacity on Big Freeze day I'll be very surprised.
Vale Neale.
If anyone deserves a bloody statue it's you mate.

Yep Craig, the Dees are going well. As a Cats supporter I am amazed that they have been so consistent for so long. Says a lot for the way that they have recruited, having the best coach in the league, and a board that knows how to run an AFL club. Dees got Kingy, a Geelong trained coach!!! can't do much better than that mate.

He confirmed his intention on the Eddie McGuire show last night. Can't think that the likes of Longmire and Hinckley would want the job. They need a clean sweep from the top down imo. As soon as they made Dean Soloman asst coach, the writing was on the wall.
