Sylvia has broken his jaw. Source : C Schwab after the game. At least 3-4 weeks, longer if both sides broken.

I was wondering where he went.

Nothing is going our way.

You're f*cking kidding us yeah??

EDIT: No you werent..

Jesse Hogan reports that Melbourne's nightmare run with injury has continued, with star forward Colin Sylvia suffering a broken jaw after being bumped by West Coast key forward Josh Kennedy in the first quarter. Syylvia could miss as many as eight weeks.

I give up.

Maybe 8 weeks.

He joins Callum Morton, Liam Jurrah and Daniel Bell on the sidelines.

Who is Callum Morton? Did we draft another Morton?

Seriously a monkey could type better reports.

these injuries have really set the tone for 2010. :( the last two seasons have been hard to watch, i'm personally going to struggle sitting through another like them.

What draft picks do we get if we finish in 16th place this year?

This is getting pretty depressing. Oh well, at least we`ll be fast tracking kids, ready to play or not!

Hands up... we might need help from demonland to make up a team for round 1... if so who's free !!!

Why can't we take a trick...

It would be interesting to see how many serious injuries we have had over the last 10 years and by serious I mean those that mean the loss of 6 to 8 weeks or more. I understand that a lot of injuries are just bad luck but we have had an enormous number that are related to soft tissue and stress injuries. If we had the money the club should do a review of all these injuries to find out where we are going wrong. Is it the medical staff, the conditioning staff or is our training methods and facilities?

Whatever, we need to review our methods and try to find out where we are going wrong.

I am as [censored] off about the injuries as anybody, but I have to point out that all of this year's serious ones have been collision injuries; and they happen in our game.

Not so, there have been injuries to players like Davey, Bruce, Wonna, Bate and Watts that are all soft tissue related. There are probably others that I can't name off the top of my head.

We have had a terrible time with these types of injuries and others like OP over the last ten years and I would say a lot worse than any other club. If this happened in a Private or Public company we would have OH & S all over us demanding to know why.

I understand that you did say major but we don't know the ramifications of Watts and Wonna yet and Bate has only had one game back so who knows what the future holds for him.

Question - Did Sylvia collide with Brad Ebert? AFL Website is reporting Ebert being knocked out as the only casualty.

Bloody hopeless, that Bigpond-run site.

Edit: just saw it was Kennedy. Same article from "The Age" at least mentions that SYYLVIA broke his jaw, continuing Melbourne's injury woes, considering we've already lost CALLUM Morton.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
