Colin Sylvia

Sorry if I have missed something but wasn't Col name at HBF against the Dockers? What reason was given for his absence? Injury or heaven forbid disciplinary?

Sylvia got injured at the end of training on Friday evening, a hamstring strain, not sure of the severity of it in terms of games he will miss, but bad timing for Col just as he was establishing himself in the side...

Yeh thats what I heard. If he's fit for Adelaide, would he get back in?

Well Garland and Bell were the replacements for Sylvia and Whelan in the selected side who withdrew because of injury/illness, so if he is to come back into the side it would be at the expense of one of those two you would say...

Gut feeling is he'd get one game at Sandy to ensure he has full confidence in his hamstring before returning...

Thanks, Let's hope it's only a strain and not a tear. Hope he can finally get his act together this year.

Week off came at a good time...

If he's right. Should come straight in. Might be hard to find a hole though. Not to many players deserve to be dropped. Garland and Warnock earned their spots.

sat about 3 seats from the kid yesterday and looked on, that being no obvious signs but means very little

Could be his hamstring, but also possible that it's his shoulder/AC as well.

He and Grimes spoke at half time at the Chairmans Function, and he said it was just a hamstring but had not yet had scans on it to confirm the severity of it. Forgive me for not giving a more detailed report, but sadly had one too many drinks afterwards in celebration :unsure:

Overheard him at the Chairman's Lunch saying that he expects to be available for the Adelaide game. Also of note was Grimes telling the audience that he plans on playing once he is off the long term injured list in 3-4 weeks. He is an impressive kid.

Looking forward to watching Grimey play.

Hopefully him and Petterd can gives us a different dimension in the midfield.

while id love all these kids to be playing, i would suggest that only forced changes should be made for the adelaide game. a just reward for everyones efforts. of course if its an obvious match up issue then it could be justified.

Wonder if this is why Neitz hasn't been replaced. There will need to be a spot on the list for Grimes to return.

So when Neitz also comes back, we lose Aussie :angry:

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well …

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
