Yes the node is called comments. I changed its name to commentary but still all 
other nodes I can access using {dg.selectedItem.nodeName} I really have no idea 
why things aren't working.

  What gets displayed in the DG for the comments tag?
   
  If the grid items are XML, then the items you get in the drop will be XML and 
not of type Sport.

I have two questions. First, I have the following xml file:
 ?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8 standalone=yes?
 contenders xmlns:xsi=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance;
 contender pos=1
 nameLewis Hamilton/name
 age22/age
 nationalityEnglish/nationality
 sportMotorsport/sport
 commentsEverything seems to come easy for the F1 ace. Hamilton
 Academical, you might say. Never mind. He's British, very good, and
 steered his way round a spying row and team turmoil. And can you ever
 tire (tyre?) of seeing him as a cheeky karting schoolboy...?/comments
 /contender
 contender pos=2
 nameRicky Hatton/name
 age29/age
 nationalityEnglish/nationality
 sportBoxing/sport
 commentsTiming is crucial for the Manchester 'Hitman'. And his
 super fight against Floyd Mayweather could not have been scheduled
 better./comments
 /contender
 
 /contenders
 I am buffled by the fact that the comments node is not accessible i.e.
 I cannot display its contents in a grid though I have no problems with
 other nodes. 
 I am not sure of the reason. Any ideas?
 
 My second question is assuming I wanted to drag a row from the grid
 into an HBox container with intentions of adding items
 to an arraycollection so that the dragged items can effectively be
 diplayed in another grid found in another 'page'.
 
 This is my code for the drop function:
 
 private function doDragDrop(event:DragEvent):void
 {
 var data:Object = event.dragSource.dataForFormat(items) as
 Sport; //Sport is class
 draggedData.addItem(data); //draggedData is an instance of
 ArrayCollection whose contents will be used as dataProvider for the
 other grid
 } count++;// The HBox will display the count value of number
 of dragged items
