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.

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:

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
