As some of you might know I lost Mrs. Feej to cancer almost two years ago. Whatever we think about the stories she wrote, things she said, she's someones wife, sister, daughter and mother. Her final days would have been hell on earth for her family. I can tell you that from experience sadly.

Please think before you speak.

Fearless trail blazer who took on the NRL 'boys' club'
Fellow sports journalist Caroline Wilson told 774 ABC Melbourne that her friend was "fearless".

"She broke the mould in sports journalism in New South Wales, which ... is a lot tougher than Victoria," she said.

"The NRL boys' club and the culture in NSW and Sydney is so much tougher than the AFL equivalent.

"She absolutely trail blazed that area."

She said Wilson was underrated as a sports journalist because she was so tough.

"I think people didn't realise just how unique her insights were."

Honesty here. I didn't like her. I detested the articles she wrote and the style she used.

But she is now gone, so I think it is best to close the page.

Its too good a sharky time to bear grudges. Just remember Sunday Night.

Its terrible that it was cancer that took her....

I was hoping it would be something contagious so she would talk the rest of the NewsCorp journos with her.

Oh well, small victories and all that...

Karmas a bitch .
Cancer is a bigger bitch & doesn't discriminate
But in saying that I agree with VIC .

When someone who is despised ...
Makes a living out of causing misery to others .then when they fall off the perch I cannot understand why suddenly everyone should say nice things .

Because cancer gets you it doesn't make you a better person or absolve you of the crap you did in this life .


I'll save my sympathies for decent people .

No one is obliged to say nice things but surely saying nothing is better than saying negative things about her within 24 hours of her death.

What were Sportbet's odds her passing away after the Sharks winning it's first premiership?

Would like to see what odds she took.
