I have worked in Palliative Care and he will be so well cared for with dignity and respect.

 

You have my absolute respect and admiration. One of the most difficult and important areas of health care.

    Jarrod wore a Luek the duck emblem and yellow hat on the tour after his last comeback to bring attention/valuable fundraising to the cause.

    Given Jarrod is a big dees fan, I’d really like to see the team wear a yellow arm band on the field of dreams round as a show of support.

    Was nice to see Jonesy give Jarrod a special mention on TV just prior to the coin toss yesterday, recognising him as a passionate Dees supporter and what he is going through.  No doubt it warmed Jarrod's heart just a tad to then see the boys play so well...

    Mark Knight is surely Australia's greatest cartoonist. The poignancy of this work is amazing - look closely and you can see Lyle's wife and kids.

    SEN is running a fundraiser for our great fellow Demon Jarrod Lyle.

    Please give - 1300081116

    Hopefully, Jarrod was buoyed by the team yesterday and the boys can keep doing it for him and his family.

    Shane Warne was on SEN this morning and offered himself at auction to raise funds.

    Highest bidder will get the chance for 10 people to bat in the MCG nets with Warne bowling at them for an hour or two.

    Public service 27 sept , ryder cup weekend , allows aussie golfers to get there from overseas

    Just so sad. I don't even like golf but he just seemed like a really nice person and he is only 36. Far to young. Feel so sad for his family but his wife and his 2 daughters who are so young. another good person taken way to early. 

    It's a shame he didn't get to see this footy club at its best. 

    Paul Roos mentioned on mmm last sunday that a couple of years ago Jarrod contacted the club and wanted to come down and just have a word to them. They could use his inspiration and courage for the next few weeks. 

    Id assume we would wear black armbands in tribute for him this weekend.

    This news is just so sad. Like many I am not a golf fan but have been inspired by Jarrod’s journey over the years and his fight to the end.

    I admired everything about him and I feel the utmost compassion for his beautiful young family. 

    Too young, too soon.

    May he RIP??

    Terrible news, even though we all knew it was on the cards.  Never makes it any easier to read and hear about.

    RIP Jarrod.

    Wow, not unexpected but still heartbreaking news. Rest in peace Jarrod Lyle, and heartfelt sympathy to all those closest to him.

  • Quote

    Bvgger :(

    Condolences to his family, and friends. My deepest sympathies are for his two girls. We all miss our loved ones as I'm sure his wife  Briony does and will but I really feel for his daughters. 

  • Quote

    Now the pain is gone. But so young, so sad. But pallative care is often only a week or so, so i am not suprised and glad he can now rest. 

    To the MFC, dedicate the remaining games to honor Jarrod, who was a big fan. 

    He will be watching

    RIP

    As Sunday is awareness Day for BC could the club not extend its recognition of Cancer and the players wear a Yellow armband ?

    ( I will now email the club )

  • Quote

    Or maybe a yellow ribbon on the jumpers or something. But yeah a yellow armband is a good idea. It would stand out more than a black armband and not that it needs any more awareness but it would make people aware of challenge charity which he supported. 

    Maybe we could do a 1 minute applause for him to before the game.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
