Quote:Olympic javelin athlete Kim Mickle has signed with Fremantle for the national women’s league and is expected to be ready for pre-season training despite her post-Rio Games shoulder reconstruction.
As a dubious part time throwing coach I find this interesting.
We know she has a pretty high pain threshold...We saw Kim's shoulder blow out in the act of throwing at the games and then she had to wander around looking for someone to help put it back :
...question is..... How will those shoulders stand up?[flash=400,400]https://www.youtube.com/v/iFePfqDWD7Y[/flash]
BTW She can kick a goal

Congrats to Mick Stinear ex Blue rookie and current Oakleigh Chargers coach on getting the gig as coach of the Demons womens team. Had the pleasure of dealing with Mick when he was organising a girls half time match at the MCG in which my daughter was playing and day of the game we got the news through my mother was dying. Mick was fantastic in helping organise so my daughter could play the game (as my Mum would have wanted) while my wife and I went to Mum's side. Really put himself out and came across as a genuinely nice bloke.

Thanks for posting Ian - we need more quality blokes in footy.
