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?

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:

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
