to see his mindset, to see what he was able to do with the fight MND.

And it wasn't about him.

I think that's what shows true courage and the mindset of him.

He was doing what he did to help people in the future for whoever gets this disease and trying to find a cure to beat it.

So I think if anything sums up a leader, anyone sums up a selfless mindset,

It's what Neil did.

And for him to be honoured with Australian of the Year before his passing was unbelievable that he was actually there to enjoy it.

He was able to do it with his family as well, considering what they've been able to do over the last 10 to 12 years has been amazing.

Yeah, g'day, Gerard.

I don't know how many games you've seen Essendon play this year, Gerard, but we turn up with no passion, intensity, confidence,

We had Edwards up forward, Langford down back, Cesada's playing in the middle.

All of a sudden, Brad Scott turned around and put Edwards on the wing, Langford back to forward.

The club needed a new direction.

He wasn't taking us anywhere.

Gerrard?

But even the first quarter against Richmond, we had no passion or intensity.

The game was over halfway through the first quarter before we got the injuries.

And there's no excuse for that.

The players weren't playing for the coach.

It was obvious.
