Thank you for saving and rebuilding the Melbourne Football Club, Jimmy. You have put us on the right track, and done everything you possibly can to ensure we will go forward in the most successful way possible. Keep fighting, if anyone can beat this it's you.

You will forever be a MFC legend.

    He's a hero in my eyes.

    Yes, he has made mistakes.

    But the best ones do.

    Thanks and you will be remembered fondly long after you leave us, and, in the end, isn't that a great mark of a human being?

    All of us on here have different ideas, and at times it can get heated and sometimes quite nasty. But we are ALL UNITED when the words Jim Stynes are spoken.

    Jim is the one footy person who's respected, admired and loved by everybody associated with the game, and probably by many who have nothing to do with AFL. This is a remarkable thing, I can't think of anybody else of whom this could be said. And he's thoroughly earned every microgram of that respect, admiration & love by his quality as a person, an athlete, and a leader. Hate to think where we'd be now if it wasn't for Jim and his leadership.

    Thanks for everything Big Jimma. You came on board when we needed you most and you've led and inspired us through some very dark days as a club. You leave the club in a great position to now move forward and all players,supporters and officials are forever indebted to you.

    All the best, look after yourself and I hope we can deliver you that premiership you so greatly deserve!

    Thanks champ

    Wow, go out of phone service for a night and come back to this. I feel absolutely gutted, but that is about me, and in the end I am happy for Jim, hopeful for Jim, grateful to Jim..... in awe of Jim. Thank you eternally for the selfless contribution you gave to our club. All my thoughts and prayers are with you Sam and your family, and I hope that against all the odds you beat this god-forsaken disease. Thank you Jim.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
