A Sydney man has become the second person to die on the Kokoda trail in just over a week. 55-year-old Phillip Brunskill died from a suspected heart attack after trying to walk the trail yesterday.

And NRL premiers 7, the Melbourne Storm have celebrated 8 well into the night, following their 23:16 grand final win over Parramatta.
