Sam Stynes, who is the nephew of the late Melbourne legend Jim Stynes, was named amongst Vic Metro's best, but he doesn't qualify as a father-son recruit because his father Brian only played two games with the Demons.

SOUTH AUSTRALIA             15.8    (98)
VIC METRO                          11.16  (82)

GOALS
South Australia: Woodcock 2, Whitbread 2, Carney 2, Munn 2, Wilkinson, Rozee, Lewis, Hately, Lochowiak, Valente, Martin
Vic Metro: M.King 3, Butters 2, West, Golds, Gillard, Taylor, O.King, Murphy

BEST
South Australia: Lukosius, Munn, Rozee, Woodcock, Valente, Lewis, Lochowiak
Vic Metro: Butters, Skidmore, Taylor, Stynes, B.King, M.King

Perhaps we should enrol him in to our academy so we get him whatever happens.

 

Just get him to move to the NT...

Of it was Jim's son is agree. 

No different to the weed playing for us instead of the filth. 

I'm guessing I don't need to explain the difference between grandfather/father and nephew to agree that they are not the same...

But given the cancer battle and death of our club president, not to mention the small bit about Jim being the "greatest story in the history of football", please forgive us for wishing that a good, young prospect related to Jimmy, who's father also played for Melbourne, might one day pull on the read and blue.

Not saying you shouldn't wish. 

Just saying plenty of filth supporters think the grandson of a club legend should play with them. 

If he is a good player then it would be great to have a Stynes running around for us again.  If he doesn't, it won't worry me as he isn't Jimmy's son.

No more of a travesty that Zac Jones didn't end up at the Dees!

I can vaguely remember Brian playing his two games.

Funny thing memory.

Mine is good at recalling completely odd fragments of yesteryear.

Bwahaha Bwahaha Bwahaha!!!!

A Question. What is the relationship between drug [censored] and memory?

The word fragment is appropriate I must admit.

Can you remember what drug you sniffed, injected , smoked or rubbed in ....let's say ...yesterday Biffin?

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
