Jim...back in the good old days when we played in the band Factor One in Dublin we had a laugh and you had a notion that you would write songs. The Jim Stynes I know is a very deep person with a thirst for challenge in everything. That is why in the past I have enjoyed his company.hope we can meet again soon,
A big hug and lots of good wishes from me and Cathy x

Jim Stynes was so inspirational last night at the B&F at Crown. He turned the night into an incredible tribute to all you have made Melbourne what it is today. The acting pres got it right on the head when he reminded everyone that the Members are the Melbourne Football Club as well, the members are the ones who wear the red and blue for life. We don't leave our Club! Together with our brilliant President, forward we march to triump all ahead!
