The popular leader became the first Melbourne player to reach 300 games last year, notching another landmark in a highly decorated career. But other than that milestone, Neitz’s season was frustrated by a nagging knee injury. The club’s games and goalkicking record-holder managed only 15 games – the most he could string together was six towards the end of the season. In what will probably be his final season, Neitz will be hoping for a more prolific 2008.
