Haha like it. In fact just go one step further and remove the word courage from the dictionary and hereby label that particular quality "Stynes".

ie. Nadal showed immense Stynes there coming back from two sets down.

Very similar to the current "Nadal showed immense stones there coming back from two sets down." Might be a little redundant.

Our Jimmy is truly an inspiration.

My wife was diagnosed early this year after our second baby with stage 4 cancer.

I picked her up this afternoon after a further week of treatment and gave her copy of the story to read, after 4 days of chemo treatment, blood transfusions and other hideous assortment of drugs it was noticeable the strength and inspiration that my wife drew from our incredible man.

I know that the best wishes that are provided to Jim on this site are genuine, but from someone living so close to this insidious disease, his battle is truly inspiring probably 1000's of cancer patients and with the importance of positivity to beat the odds he is probably indirectly saving many many lives. I am sure my wife will be one of those.

Well done Jim & thanks

Demon Premonition, I wish you and your wife all the luck in the world mate. Nobody deserves this scourge that is cancer, and I pray it all works out for you.

These are some of the best words I've read in a very long time: "doctors say, Stynes is winning his remarkable battle for life".

Amen to that.....

Best wishes mate. Emulating Jimmy, you and your wife are both champs as well.

Good to hear he has at least some vision - it must have been scary to go into the operation knowing that you could come out of it without the ability to see.

Indeed! And, to think that just hours prior to the operation, when he could be forgiven for being just a little pre-occupied with his own condition, there he was at Training, presenting his #37 to Max, and following up with an inspirational pep talk to the group.

What a true champion!

Little wonder the boys rose to the occasion last night! Would have been unforgivable if they didn't!

Not sure if anyone heard, but i was listening to the radio yesterday morning and Stynes was being interviewed, can't remember the station but Jimmy said to the boys, 'I just have this feeling that melbourne are going to win tonight', so all day yesterday I was hanging out to get to the G and witness jimmy's preminition. When he said that, I too, knew that we would. It's all about belief. I'm a very proud supporter and believer, go dees.

    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

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
