Unfortunately, at the young age of 45, Jim has passed away after a long, brave battle with cancer, but his legacy lives on. He was a truly inspirational individual and our thoughts and prayers are with his wife, Sam, and two children.
From his humble beginnings as a Gaelic footballer trying to learn how to play Aussie rules to his recent courageous battle with cancer, Jim consistently displayed traits that we can all learn from.
His list of awards as a footballer is very impressive, winning the coveted Brownlow Medal as the Best and Fairest player in the AFL in 1991, 4 time club B&F winner, 2 time All-Australian, AFL Hall of Famer and member of the Melbourne Football Club Team of the Century.
But as with most great people, his achievements reach far beyond the sporting field, so what principles can we learn from the life of Jim Stynes?
