News RIP Neale Daniher

[LordLucifer]

The afl should make him an “immortal legend” or a “special legend” of the game.

RIP Neale

Interesting thought and not that out of calculations either.

A new and much higher ranked category could be created for the very rare cases like this.

RIP

Did amazing work and never let it get to him.

There should be a minute's silence at the Big Freeze out of respect for the guy.

it's going to be a very emotional day

 

[brutus76]

A super-MAN and a true inspiration for us all.

Merv Neagle will be waiting with a beer and a footy Neale so you can have a frothy and a kick!

it's going to be a very emotional day

Should be a minutes silence before every game this weekend and they seem to make time for a welcome to country…….

 

[Mighty Eagles]

Tragic news. He's fought so strongly for so many years. He's not out of pain. RIP Neale Daniher.

I encourage everyone to buy a mnd beanie and/or socks as a tribute to the great man

Very sad day in Australia

Rip Neale Daniher

Would love to hear from anyone here who watched him play before the knee. His torn-down potential was already part of footy folklore when I started following in ‘86.

The match when he played with his three brothers was also a huge celebration.

RIP legend. What an amazing man and inspiration

 

[Plugger35]

Sad but not unexpected with MND, he put up a great fight though and he did great work raising awareness and funding.

He was also a great coach for the Dees and could have been a great player too if his career wasn't cut short by injuries.

 

[_Mike_]

Never gave up, fought for the cause to the very end.

RIP Neale

 

[Big Blood]

RIP to someone who showed us how to deal bravely with adversity. He he left an incredible legacy in Big Freeze and the MND campaign.

 

[brutus76]

Someone needs to unearth that Round 22, 1990 footage from Moorabbin
4 Danihers in one game

 

[LightTower4]

His legacy will continue.
Champion of the league.
