There's still a lot of fight left in the Big man yet....Inspirational to us all.

There's nothing that can really be said that does justice to this bloke and what he's going through.

Prayers every night that he beats it. Love to Jim and his family.


Good to hear that he is coming back after a bad spell, he will never give up either.

The muesli sounds nice, but for 17 bucks i think i will need to pass

Haven't been able to listen to it yet, but here is the link to his interview with Neil Mitchell this morning:

Broke down watching this. Especially the last line "I know what I'm going to miss out on".

Does not deserve this. I hope a miracle occurs.

Life plays no favours.....Just gotta live to the Max while you can

Nobody gets favours in the Big Picture....it's Random selection, and maybe bloodlines to a degree.

 

Absolutley love the man, he is inspiring and I hope something miraculous occurs for him and his family. All the best to you Jim keep fighting the fight!

If only I could avoid worrying about chasing money while simultaneously chowing down on express-posted $17 muesli! Kidding.

It's interesting how often you hear people who have been diagnosed with a terminal illness talk about how that experience has helped them find out what's really important. I wonder why humans have a tendency to only really start living their lives once they've been tagged with a use-by date.

It makes sense when you think about it though....That big scary moment puts stuff into perspective....Like as a kid, when you find out that Santa infact is not real...Life does change...childhood evaporates.

funny. when I found out about mum & dad (a.k.a. S.Claus) , my childhood never evaporated, it still existed. just a slight different perspective on things. same with the easter bunny. still get presents and chocolate, still fun and that doesn't change.

interesting comment though "evaporates",

Jesus mate, spoiler alert

I remember last year him saying he wanted to get to christmas. Well Jim you are on your way to another christmas. Im just amazed by his toughness and its interesting to hear him say before his illness he and Sam used to fight a lot. I know couples fight but Jim has always come across as a peaceful calm man who would to me would never get angry at anything. Anyway hopefully this new drug just helps him a bit.

The muesli I think is targeted for people that are going through cancer or what a healthy alternative. I wouldnt buy it but I reckon if I had cancer id give anything a go.


Jesus mate, spoiler alert

i think we are all above age now on here...Terribly sorry if you have lived in silent ignorant darkness for decades!!!! HaHa

Fighting Irish.

It's amazing that something can both break your heart and inspire at the same time. He's an incredible man, and he certainly puts things in perspective. Every day is a gift to him.

Keep fighting, Jimmy.

We'll all eventually meet the same fate, but the thought of leaving young kids behind must be the hardest thing I would imagine...........almost like you were letting them down or somehow failing them by not being there.

He's a pretty amazing man Jim Stynes, and you can't help but admire his courage.

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

  • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
