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 gets 3 weeks, yet Brennan gets 1 week for a headbutt?

What a disgrace...

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.

haha Carr should have got 1 week as well you think...

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

Have you seen Sylvia's? (I haven't)

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!

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.

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.

LOL.

He is a certain part of the clubs future.

I dont care if he microwaves a kitten.

The guy is a gun.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
