The match day report laid against Melbourne’s Colin Sylvia for striking Port Adelaide’s Josh Carr from Sunday’s match was assessed. It was the view of the panel that Sylvia’s action was a pushing motion and not a strike. The contact was also below that required to constitute a reportable offence and it was the view of the panel the Port Adelaide player accentuated the contact. No further action was taken.

Now all he needs to do is play a bloody GOOD GAME! <_<

    So he should get off..... The report was a disgrace!

    Both Power boys got games though.... Which is nice!! Burgoyne the dirty [censored] got what he deserved for kneeing Davey when he was down.... Obviously Port realised that they were like fresh meat in Pentridge last year and have made a pact to get tougher this season.... But toughness is measured in different ways....

    Try again Port!!

    See ya in the showers :P

    Carr probably instigated it as well.

    As a mate said to me:

    I said the exact same thing to the missus when we saw it on the news..... Any report against a player who is playing on JC.... NO ACTION!

    I actually had a chuckle at that one.

    Carr has made a career on baiting players and also how many times did he duck the head in that game? - pathetic.

    I think he's lucky. It was quite a forceful blow to the throat, but I'm happy he got off. He shouldn't and probably won't be dropped so now he can help us beat Richmond next week.

    I agree Rny. He needs to put the incident behind him (and the game) and concentrate on the task next week.

    Lucky to get off???? Pfft!!!!!

    It was a push that turned into one of the greatest dives of all time!

    The only reason it went up was because of the dive which the umpire fell for............the camera angle made it look far worse than it was............and that's why it was thrown out!

    Good onya Krazy, I thought the same thing as you when I finally saw it. Nothing in it. Gee the kid cops some negativity. But now he does need to try to work himself into the Dees gameplan.

    Nahh I dont think there was much in it, It was sorta just a push in the throat but Carr made it look worse.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
