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.

VIC METRO                          11.16  (82)

GOALS
South Australia: Woodcock 2, Whitbread 2, Carney 2, Munn 2, Wilkinson, Rozee, Lewis, Hately, Lochowiak, Valente, Martin

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.

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?

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play
