R.I.P Jim Stynes Not only was he a legend of the game, the things he done off the field could never be denied. Jim’s bravery, guts and determination he carried in his playing days, carried out into his influence in football after his retirement. It’s been long two and a half years for the Stynes family, the Melbourne Football Club and everyone involved in the sport. And who would have thought that the strongest person over this time would be Jim himself. Putting himself...
NRL convert Karmichael Hunt notched up his maiden goal last night for the Gold Coast Suns, and it was no ordinary goal. Hunt marked the ball on the run, instantly played on and went forward to kick the goal from 55m out, raising all fans to their feet and drawing all Suns players around Hunt. Not only was it great for the Suns to see Hunt kick his first goal, but it was good to see more promising signs from the ex-Brisbane Bronco player.The Suns were talked up as no chance against the...
One of the biggest arguments in the AFL for a long time is who is the best? Out of all the stars in the game, which single player is the best. We have all heard the arguments that midfielders like Chris Judd, Gary Ablett, Matthew Boyd and Dane Swan are among the best in the AFL. We have also heard that such defenders like Luke Hodge and Brendan Goddard are the best, but has it ever been considered that a centre half forward can be the best player in the AFL? Not Nick Riewoldt, not Jonathon...

Who is the St Kilda Schoolgirl? The 'St Kilda Schoolgirl' is the nickname of a young girl, Kim Duthie, who a long time ago claimed to have met several St Kilda players at a school clinic and further went on to claim she was pregnant with the father being a player from the St Kilda Football Club. This girl who was in the news a lot for that has recently come back into public view for what people again claim is another "15 minutes of fame" but is it just that, 15 minutes? :ate Monday, a picture...
After such a successful 2010 season for the Magpies, many questions are being asked about how they will they cope in 2011. Will they be able to go back to back, something which hasn't been done since Brisbane's three-peat from 2001-2003 (two of those against the Magpies)? The Sydney Swans and Geelong Cats have both been teams to attempt going back to back, the Swans in 2005/2006 and the Cats who won the 2007 and 2009 premierships while losing in 2008 to the Hawks. Some have said that the...
Dale Thomas is the first of Collingwood Magpies out of contract trio to say that he is commited to the club and that he does not want to go to the newest AFL franchise, Greater Western Sydney. Premiership player Dale Thomas, along with magical Collingwood midfield duo Dane Swan and Scott Pendlebury all come out of contract, for when the Greater Western Sydney Giants come into the competition in 2012. After rumours were started by Collingwood president that Melbourne youngster Tom Scully has...
While things have been going on in the background Gold Coast Suns start their debut season on the 2nd of April against the Carlton Blues. That is four months until they play in the AFL for the first time, but the questions are on everyones mind. Are they ready for the big league? Do they have enough quality players? Yes the Suns have definitely had more critics than other sides have probably ever had in the past.This is why I feel that the Suns will do good, as they will have so much...
Competition superstar was on One Week At A Time on ONE HD. The member of Collingwood's 2010 Premiership team talked about himself as well as his Magpie teammates.We were introduced with Swan's name being read aloud and the song "I Made It" being played while highlights of Dane Swan in 2010 faded into highlights of Swan kicking a goal in 2011 season opener against Port Adelaide. When cutting to the studio, the first thing mentioned was Swan's bling, referring to the Premiership Ring that Swan...
Sports are my life, I love following and playing sports, although I also love writing about sports. I am still young, so my writing will not be perfect, but I am just writing here to get my name out, and to be able to see how many views my articles are getting is just good. I see that more and more people are reading my articles and it's great to see.
