    Anyone know how old his son is and if he plays footy..?

    God, I hope he does and he makes the grade for the MFC.

    What a fantastic documentary.

    How can you not love the man?

    If you had of watched the doco you would have noticed Jimma having kick to nick with his son,Tiernan,whom is either 5 or 6..a very tall boy for his age.

    OVERWHELMING !

    the most inspiring bloke I've ever seen, it's true that only the good die young, let's just hope he get's at least another 5 years to see the Demon's develop into Premiership team

    Ordered the DVD Saturday. Sunday was way too crowded at our house with friends and family around.

    Definitely watching by myself the first chance I get.

    Thanks for pointing out the bleeding obvious again John, but you've confirmed nothing in that post.

    Might as well have saved your keystrokes.

    You know what REALLY urks me??? And I do get passionate about this.

    If there truly is a "God", why does He put [censored] on the most amazing of people??? Why is it truly that good die young??? What did Jimmy do to deserve this after all he's done for AFL and the Reach Foundation that he HIMSELF founded???

    Answer: NOTHING!! The bloke is the only Jesus Christ there has ever been. In fact, he's the only God I'm aware of.

    Unfortunately, the [censored] has hit the fan and Jimmy and his close family/friends are knee deep in it. I'm praying that St Jimmy pulls through. One thing's for sure though... he has done his absolute best and has lived up to his solid reputation: A fighter through adversity.

    I find it ironic that you are praying for St Jimmy despite the fact you are openly questioning the existence of God. So who are you praying too in that case???

    Also for those (like me) that didn't get to see the doco on Sunday night, Channel Nine is doing an encore showing of it at 10.30pm this Wednesday night.

    I asked the kid's age - you said 5 or 6, so you clearly don't know.

    I also asked if he played footy and you said he played kick to kick with his father in the doco.

    Bit of a stretch between the 2.

    Go have a bex and a lie down old fella.

    Thinking of you Jimmy. Good luck.

    JIM STYNES' SPIRITUAL SMOKE 'BATH'

    Read about that in saturdays Hun, apparently the Jimma is looking and feeling great.

    As a disabled person myself i find Jimmy's plight totally uplifting and inspirational. Yes it has been all said before, but The great man just might beat this evil Cancer and from that,

    He The MFC and the supporters of, will be so much stronger.....Look out all teams in the AFL. The Demons are going to be so United & so strong...to those outside it will be a little scary!!!

    Keep Fighting Jimma.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

      It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
