EDIT:

Stynes will remain President but delegate duties to other Board members temporarily, with Don McLardy taking over as interim President. Three weeks ago he had a lump in his back removed which turned out to be cancerous and it has spread to other parts of the body. He will undergo surgery tomorrow (Source: MFC.)

According to a Nine news report, just moments ago, the great man Jimmy will be stepping down from the presidency of the MFC. Horrible, horrible news, if true. Get well soon, Jimmy!

I don't have a link but this was just shown on a channel 9 news update.

The reason is illness. If this is true, I am sure more of this will be coming shortly. Sorry to not have a source or a link, but if this is true, this is very sad news.

WOW. Absolutely terrible, terrible news for this footy club.

Jim Stynes has done such a great amount of work in such a short time, let's hope his illness isn't too bad!

GET WELL JIMMY AND THANKYOU!

Typical channel nine...trying to break a story...giving us absolutely no imformation whatsoever and saying "more on the today show tomorrow"...it is disgusting.

You would imagine that one of the two vice presidents would temporarily or permanantly fill his shoes...

listening to SEN atm and there is nothing of it so far but they are playing the news now

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date.

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
