Sylvia caught out late drinking. I think it's an overreaction by the club all things considered

Geez, gotta be something more to it doesn't there? Home by midnight, not drunk, no trouble... Doesn't seem like anything out of the ordinary... Was it a night before training or something? Just feels like either something is missing from the story or it's been beat up MASSIVELY by the SA media

    I wouldn't consider assaulting one's girlfriend a 'team discipline problem'.

    That's pretty quick for Adelaide considering how far behind they are on average... Must have upgraded their telegraph system

    What a beat up!!!!

    I love the way they dredge up the past in every article like this, just to reinforce their point that Col must be a ragbag!

    Rip the Swans a new one Col!!!!!

    No details and no evidence... what a crap peice of reporting. This piece is more of a disgrace for the media than is is for the player!! Jon Ralph = [censored]

    Actually, they could just be jealous that Tassie has places that are open til midnight...

    First 2 words "Serial Offender" It's actually a HUN article written by Jon Ralph, which makes it even worse.

    Just lost all respect for J R over that one.....

    I reckon it is great. Publish it the day of the first match to give Col even more reason to get out there and tear Sydney a new one.

    The article highlights just how desperate our media is becoming to keep pumping out "controversial stories".

    Go Dees!

    Small "curfew" misdemeanor = non event! Who was it that wrote an article the other week saying that they should play 6 days a week to ease the need for the media to fill their papers with "fluff"? Well here we have an example of the argument in that article. Sometimes I think these reporters need to get a life.

    seriel offender!?? wtf since when?

    You're kidding me right?

    The overreaction from our leadership group should give everyone an insight into the issues that the younger Colin Sylvia had.

    Stopping him before he gets into bad habits is what you want.

    Well done to the leaders.

    Bails, just said on Game day that it was the night before training...not the right thing to do having a few beers night before training....but nothing big....

    as for John Ralph..the guy is a hack of monumental proportions

    Yes, and I hardly think that a stern talking to and some extra duties is an over-reaction.

    Exactly WYL. Well done to leadership group on pre-emptive strike. And well done to CS today, played as if to make amends.

    OMG!! SRSLY? Charie Sheen farted in a jar? I can't believe I haven't heard about this.

    'Journalism' these days is getting closer and closer to failing the Turing Test.

    Not a major infringement, but none-the-less a timely reminder to Col to toe the line.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
