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?

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.

    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.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
