That does seem inconsistent in your terms Cards. Good point mate.

In my terms?

It just makes no sense, the new system I mean HT. THis was designed to have more certainty around penalties for similar infractions yet a headbutt gets one week (with good behaviour haha + early plea) yet, I have seen no clear vision of it yet, Hi-Ho's looks like a "strike" of some kind and he gets 3 weeks... where is the consistancy in that?

    Bad news.

    This from the article made me laugh a little though.

    "Brennan’s original penalty was three matches that could be reduced to two because of his five-year food record."

    Wonder is col would have got 2 weeks if he had a five-year food record hehe.

    ha ha

    Brennan had the 5 year good record to reduce it to 2 then an early plea gives him 1 week.. Sylvia has no such option for an early plea it is a straight 3 weeks... que???

    yeah, I meant the way you put it, in your words. You are clearly pointing out that there seems to be no consistency.

    Sylvia got 325(?) demerit points with an extra 93 points hanging overhead - 25% discount for early plea leaves 3 weeks

    Right. Was mentioned no discount for an early plea. Ta mate.

    Everyone is forgetting that Sylvia didn't have access to the "it was only Josh Carr" defence.

    I saw the Sylvia one live, it pains me to say that it deserves every bit of three weeks. It was plain stupid.

    And he did what now?

    I'm not railing against his suspension just the lack on consistancy of the system.

    I saw it as well and my first thought was 3 and I know it's not good for Col or the team but gee I was proud.

    Someone had to stand up for us

    And what did he do?? Hit him, elbow him, shirt front, knee......

    Was lucky not to get more! Big round house to the head.. Not good Col

    Hmm! Saw it earlier on One Week at a Time on OneHD. They played the whole incident and it was very ordinary. Extremely lucky to only get 3 weeks. Robert Walls made the comment that he would have been happier with 6!! It looked awful and was really dumb!

    Absolute moronic/stupid act.

    He wasn't hard done by. He got his just desserts.

    Time to grow up young Col.

    Want to be a part of the future? Grow up.

    Very lucky. It was the Colin of old. PULL YOUR HEAD COLIN. I didn't see the incident live but I saw it on one week at a time on one and it was just crazy stuff. IT'S NOT THE 80'S ANYMORE COLIN.

    What are you on about? It was not even that bad. He just tried to slap / round arm him over the back of the head.

    He has all done us a favour. Carries our team each week does that boy and without him the PP are ours. :wub: ohhh and Jack

    Best year to do it and it sends the message that we aren't going to lie down and cop a kicking anymore. First you get hated, then you get feared, then you get the flag.

    Absolutely.

    I cant believe the naivety of those posters welcoming the suspension to get the PP.

    A player has just put a real black mark to his name by act that was brainless and crude.

    Nothing to celebrate there.

    Sylvia at his best is extremely important to us. He cant afford another lapse of concentration as future penalties are going to be harsh.

    Expecting more from Colin as I am still remembering the 60 metre goal on Saturday.

    Well said, Its great to see moloney fly the flag each week, He is doing exactly what we need him to do.

    By hitting a player off the play???

    Gutsy stuff that and it will really gain us respect.

    How about first we win the contested ball and then the hate and the fear will come.

    Sylvia sent a bigger message when he took that brave mark against Collingwood and in the contest contact put Maxwell physically out of commission. Thats making a statement that makes teams notice.

    Not the sniping cheap stuff he got suspended for.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
