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.

    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
