Yep. I felt the same. His inspirational spirit is going to rub off on us all.

Jim Stynes is on the same Level as Norm Smith as far as the MFC is concerned.

Hearing the crowd cheer and applaud and then seeing Jimmy walk down to the cheer squad with his Dees scarf on - one of the best moments as a lifelong Melbourne supporter. Glad my kids were there to see it - they were just as excited at seeing Jim as seeing the win.

yes i took my girlfriend to the game and we saw jim walk down to the cheersquad with his son. it brought a tear to the eye for both of us. everyone around us fell to a hush and then a cheer - ie "it's jim stynes". talk about a hero - he gave extra significance to the actions of the team on the field. it really puts everything into perspective doesn't it? football is a game that takes up so much of our lives - and yet is essentially just a game - blokes kicking around a football. but football is more than a game for us now in that we have all got to know this inspirational man and his fight to save our club and then to save his own life. i believe he will succeed in both.

Well said my Friend-Thanks to Jimmy we will all continue to watch this great club. The Crowds will come.

Going through the pain of 2009 is now so worth it.

How proud would Jimma have felt today-seeing those young kids start to impose themselves around the ground.

From the MCC Reserve i could hear the cheers but had no idea that Jimmy was there till the end.

Just Great.

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
