    Didn't even know this was happening but it's really awesome that there is a landmark which will carry the great man's name for a long, long time.

    Well overdue.

    Great stuff, shame it's not closer to the G.

    How old is Tiernan now? Would love a Stynes father-son in future years.

    yeah wernt they going to link up a bridge to the stadiums in richmond? I would have thought they could have named it there.

    yes, But lets keep 'Our Pressure', & Wants, off this kid & his family. Let them find happiness, & peace. And If the boy loves playing; then one day his love for the game may bring him towards us.

    .... but lets not push him away, from Peace, Fun, & Enjoyment for himself.

    ...because anything that is said on this message board is going to effect his life decisions in any way what so ever...

    I didn't know this was happening either. Great tribute to a great man. Thanks for the info and the pictures.

    • 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.
