Vale Neale Daniher
Australia has lost one of its greats. The 2025 Australian of the Year was a football legend, a courageous leader, and an extraordinary advocate in the fight against MND.
Neale Daniher’s strength, dignity and determination inspired a nation. Through his leadership of the FightMND campaign, he transformed personal adversity into hope, raising vital awareness and millions of dollars towards finding a cure.
He will be remembered not only for his achievements in football, but for the profound impact he made on the lives of countless Australians.
An incredible Australian whose legacy will continue for generations.
Our thoughts are with Jan, Bec, Luke and the extended Daniher family.
