As if we need to lose Colin now, after the year he has been having.

I must admit, it is all my fault. Tonight just before the lock out, I rearranged my supercoach team and nominated Colin as my captain (based on his average score this year, I thought it was a good move!).

So now he is out, and I must confess to being the guilty party.

Kind of like hanging out a full load of washing and then it rains, eh? :blink:

    Maybe I had better 'uncaptain' him, just to make sure!

    :lol:

    After he first did it, he came back on the ground a couple of times. You don't do that if it's a severe corky that you need a week off for.

    He'll be NICE and fresh 9 days from now.

    I cringed when it looked like he was gone for the night. His first few minutes in the game were pretty good, and one would have assumed that, to have any hope of winning the match, a fit and pumped Col Slyvia was a necessity.

    Was great to see we managed to win without him, and therefore with only three fit men on the bench. Makes the win that much more noteworthy than it already is.

    But, yes, certainly hope he comes up cherry ripe to help demolish the Pies!

    Colin Sylvia is made from tough stock. He will play QB no doubt about it.

  • Quote

    Yeah I have him in my supercoach team and I'm spewing he only got 32 points! Could he not have waited till the last after he had at least 80-90 pts :)

    He should be OK, given the 10 day break and the fact that it was only a corkie.

    So long as he comes up, I guess we won't need to make a change. Hopefully.

    DB on radio this morning said that Sylvia would be fine for Queens Birthday because of the extra couple of days and also because Col is a player that recovers quicker than most.

    Yeah, YOU! Well, your penance should be to sit in Pie territory and have a Coffee. Smiling at all the filth.

    He looked very ginger getting in the pool for recovery (highlights - After the Game), very stiff. Plenty of time and massage to go until Monday. DB's assessment may be music to the ears for all.

    I'm just hear to say I love him.

    Hope that helps him heal.

    I wonder what the AFL stats are this year for players that have had to be subbed for a corkie? . . . . Probably the first.

    who really cares? the main thing is that hopefully he will be right to play in a week.

    • 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.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
