Top Shelf effort by Crawf and having Jim on the same show had Mrs G in tears.

Some ripping TV!

Even Sammy had a tear in his eye last night. It just shows how close he and Crawf are despite the facade they put on each week.


Mrs WLF clammed up.

It was amazing stuff.

Crawf just staring at the ground. Very modest. It was very real.

Thought Raelene Boyle was the toughest one on the stage. Sam, Garry & Crawf all near tears. There should be more stories like these rather than all the media crap when one of the players goes off the rails. Really good stuff. Stynes is a true champion and just goes to show how tough he is when he puts himself out there to inspire others with this terrible disease. Best of luck to all of them.

Whilst one can't help but admire the way Stynes is battling this herendous disease, getting cancer doesn't suddenly make someone a nice person in my opinion.

Are you saying Stynes wasn't a nice person before he had cancer?

I think he was saying that he was a nice person before hand! That's the way I took it anyways!

No. I know people who have had dealings with him before the disease struck. Don't get me wrong it is horrendous what he is going through and I wish him the absolute best of luck with his recovery but the phrase "Champion Bloke" doesn't apply.

I had heard about the coffee enema, but the second bit?

How on Earth would someone discover that doing THAT could be beneficial in any way?

Could it be any worse than having cancer? :-?
If one person does it, it's insanity. If millions do it, it's religion.

Not at all. I just don't know how people try these things.

And I don't mean that the way most people would take it.

IF I had cancer, and there was a way to beat it, I would do anything.

What I mean is, how does the doctor/scientist/entrepreneur work out that drinking your own urine could possibly be beneficial??

Urine is waste actively excreted by the body, diluted in water.
If it were good for you, or needed, the body would retain it - as it does most of the Potassium that reaches the kidneys.
However, you can't blame the man for trying anything, no matter how apparently wacky
