Today's news in the the Hun is shattering.

At the moment I have but one wish, Jimmy gets better.

Posted

Heartbreaking news. Keep fighting Jim, you don't deserve this. It makes the stuff at the footy club seem so insignificant.

Posted

Get well Jim, an inspirational man on and off the football field. Through the darkest times in recent years, you have been a beacon of hope. Your commitment to this club through a time of personal hardship has been unheralded. Your fighting spirit embodies everything this club can only hope to be in the future; a future that would have been all but impossible without you.

Focus on getting yourself well Jim. You have gone far beyond what anybody could have asked.

Well its been a crap week at the footy club and now this just makes it worse. Jim seriously I know the club gives you something to focus on and take your mind of your battle but you dont need this stress. Its a shame the players dont play with the same fight and courage you do.

Hopefully this one can be removed and at least it isnt another tumour on the brain. Thoughts are with you and your family.

Absolutely heartbreaking news today. I guess we all know the direction this horrible story is taking, but don't want to see the truth. All of us, our thoughts and our prayers are with you big man. Be selfish for once in your life and look after yourself and your family first.

Jim...you have an adoring wife and loving kids. Time to leave Melbourne to its fate and comsider your own health and family.

Thanks mate, but time to look after yourselves !!

Terrible, terrible news.

Poor Bugger he is a true battler hyopefully the club can get up for him this weekend.

Posted

it's just a football club. it's survived highs and lows for more than 150 years. it's time to look after yourself and your family, and not worry about, in the grand scheme of things, trivial s#it like this week.

Posted

I am so sad about this.

I hope those inside the MFC take a good hard look at the last few months....It sure hasn't helped Jimmy in his fight

Now grow up the lot of you, and function like a Club...Give Stynesy some energy FFS.

Don't let last monday be the last time Jimmy was seen.

What a week!!!

Could not agree more.

Makes me sick to the core.

I know it's (footy) is only a game, but as a Melbourne supporter this has been one helluva week, for all the wrong reasons...

Big Jim has put so much time, effort, energy and emotion into the MFC. If there's one thing that will put a smile on his face at the moment, it's the players coming out on the w/e and making a serious statement. How they go about it, I really don't care, so long as the 'footy world' is left stunned.

My thoughts are with Jimmy and his family.

Spot on...........the bickering and infighting that has been going on while poor old Jimmy fights for his life is deplorable.

Keep fighting Jim!

Posted

Gotta wonder (and the point has been made by journos too before you call me a cold bastard) whether the footy club is literally killing him. The stress, especially of last weekend...

Posted

This really puts life & all things into perspective. He has been through so much & more is still to come. Get well Jim, the club needs to sort itself out for your sake if anything. Have a hard look at yourselves MFC!

Jimmy,

You are, and will always be an absolute legend of our club. It is absolutely inspirational stuff that you continue to fight for our club, whilst continually battling for your own life. Impossible to describe how great you truly are.

For no-one else but yourself and your family, we hope to see you back on top again soon.

Absolutely. Our thoughts are with Jim, Sam and the family, the MFC will be fine.

    The premiership defender had his best year yet as he was given the opportunity to move into the midfield and made a good fist of it.

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
