What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
It's too late for me.
What major news is affecting the AFL and its teams?
The disease I've got will kill me. I apologise for the way I talk, but it's part of the disease. It's a beast of a disease because there's no treatment and there's no cure. It doesn't kill you quick, it kills you slowly. It kills you out by slowly paralysing you. It'll get to a stage where I can't swallow, I can't speak, and I can't breathe. But you don't lie down. It might get me, but I'm a fighter. Live with hope.
How did Neale Daniher influence the AFL community?
Have a strong vision where you're going. My vision, closed off is the world without MND. I'll get there. I'm up at six foot under, but we'll get there. Thanks for listening.
I'm blessed with a blessing
What a human being. How he has just showed us how to fight. Rest in peace, Neil. To get your diagnosis, to be told you're going to have a short life expectancy, twice a month, for him to hear that and go, you know what? You bet your ass I'm not doing that. I'm going to fight. I'm going to fight because that's what I do. I'm going to fight and have a 13-year battle with this thing. It can take away my ability to move and ability to speak, but it won't take away my fight.
What I'm going to celebrate is when we don't have an M&D day. We're going to nail it, move on and up some other people.
Welcome back to the Big Red Shed on the 27th of May. I think it'd be silly not to start and pay our respects to a great man, Neil Danaher. Rest in peace, Neil.
What mistake did the AFL make that impacted the Pies' season?
Let's meet Neil. Our thoughts are with his family and we know Ben. Ben's a legend. We know Ben, so sending all our love to him and obviously the entire Donato family. But what an amazing, inspiring human being. When that news came through on Monday, I think everyone just felt really, obviously, super flat and upset hearing that news. Had a massive, massive 13-year fight with MND. Got the diagnosis, was told they had 27 months to live. and just showed us that he is a fighter and he fought and fought and fought. And when he got diagnosed, he said, screw that, I'm fighting this thing. I know it's going to take my ability to move and walk and speak and it will kill me slowly, but there's always opportunity in this thing and that's for me to fight.
And he did that. So, congratulations on everything that you did and now you can rest in peace. And We can't wait. Obviously, we look forward to the big freeze every year, but now it's two weeks out. I think this will be the biggest one that we have.
Such a big reflection of his resilience and character to last that long, you know, and to just keep fighting and still stay positive the entire time.
To be that courageous, to know, okay, this thing's going to kill me. It just is. And then to make his whole purpose to find a cure, to raise $115 million for research into M&D, and then his goal is, well, I know it's going to kill me, but I'm going to help others who – get the diagnosis, and they're going to have some hope, the hope that I didn't have. So what a fantastic human being. And also our thoughts with Jai Arrow, who recently also got diagnosed with MND. That's sad. It's a horrible disease. I saw some articles, some news. clip from Jairo with him and his daughter and he was just in tears being like this is just the worst because she's getting a good age and I'm losing my ability to hold her and stuff so it's all sad but our thoughts are with Neil and his family so once again rest in peace Neil and just on that my old footy coach who took us to the grand final in 2023
