Yeah lots of nasty goss floating around about Col

http://www.bomberblitz.com/forum/index.php...47414&st=15

MOst likely BS but would prefer him to play like cousins on the field.

That does'nt really surprise me! Maybe we can trade him to Hawthorn so he can party with the boys down there!

One of them said he could play two games in a row he felt that good. Nobody can keep up with him! So he reckons. We will all know whats happens if he drops ..... on the field!

It does'nt seem to work for Sylvia.

There is no doubt Colin has been a disappointment in the past . I have been prepared to excuse him on the basis that he has had major injury and fitness worries. He has not been strong in 'the core' which would have made it very difficult to play four quarters of footy. Up until this year, he has never had a proper pre-season. Perhaps our mistake was in recruiting a kid who had OP at 17...but that's not his fault

The saving grace on the latest issue is that he wasn'y drinking - so I'm going to get off his back one more time and judge on the field after his first full pre-season .

He has ability - and I recall Daniher saying that he is very competitive.

Let's just see how plays in the next month

Hoopla -Colin has no tank, he has no football smarts and lacks heart. He would be an excellent VFL/SANFL player but he doesn't have the goods to deliver at AFL level. Colin should be aloud to go out late at night as he'd end up falling asleep at a reasonable hour anyway no matter where he was out at. Judd and Luke Ball can play at a level with OP type issues, Colin will always have whatever lingers with his OP so get over it.

Classic misunderstanding of the debilitating condition that is OP. Nice.

It is nice, face the facts with Colin you get his lingering OP, if he had any football smarts and real steel mentally maybe he could play. Why continue to back him when he's not going to overcome this. There are too many if only's with him -maybe he should go see the Wizard of Oz for a brain, a heart and some courage.

Keep on talking. Eventually you might say something worthwhile.

interesting that he has not been named in the squad at all for sunday. I wonder where he will be at in 7 days time. Wonna to come back in, watts maybe soon, maric, jetta looking good, petterd looking good, robbo getting closer? Whilst it isn't the best forward line on paper we are starting to have some real competition for place which can only be a good thing. I just wonder where CS fits into the bigger and long term picture?

Bailey said that if Sylvia trained hard enough he'd play, so if Bails is true to his word Sylvia is either injured or he didn't train hard enough. If it's the latter then his future must be in serious doubt, if he can't get himself together after his type of incentive from his coach then I doubt he ever will.

It's a shame because I believed he'd be able to finally prove himself

I think your right on the money Jarka, the only thing that crossed my mind was that he was being taught a lesson this week regardless. So if in 7 days he is in the same position his future has to be questioned and it may be a long road back for him.

    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

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.
