Sylvia is clearly holding the club to ransom.

It's definitely ultimatum time.

One single player isn't bigger than the club.

Why haven't we heard from him about his commitment to the Dees long term?

I don't think he even knows the words to our club song.

Play him at Casey until he signs!

I genuinely hope Col stays and i believe he is absolutely vital to our team and our structures.I absolutely love him to bits as a player and as a bloke. The issue i was trying to raise though comes back to that horrible word- potential.

As i stated before i think that Col should be in the elite of the elite category by now and mentioned in the same breath as Judd,Pendlebury,Swan,Murphy, Ablett etc. Hes shown glimpses of absolute brilliance but cant seem to maintain it for any length of time. I just dont understand why he goes missing at times and what is stopping him from achieving his full potential???

heard from an impeccable source that Nithmond were into Sylvia in a big way

Casey for mine

Ok ... I will play along.

Your crazy, no way its GWS or nothing. Prove it how they going to do it. Put up or shut up. .... did I miss anything? B)

I need to know the answer today. If you dont tell me I will start calling you names, post silly little images about you ... then finally hit you with my ubeaut utube video. .... did I miss anything? B)

Please tell me if I missed anything then I can keep the thread going for 10-12 more pages

ps B) B) B) B)

pps ... dont forget to start the other thread where you have to claim that pick upgrades are a bad idea. Then I will hit you with completely the wrong strategy for this draft. I will argue they are a great strategy ... Its the point of the whole thread or something to that effect. :wub:

No, it's nothing like that at all. Speed, unlike height, can be affected over time owing to several factors. If you're comparing him to the best onballers in the comp (ie. have a look at the way Cooney went about it on Friday night) then no, he's not quick. He's by no means slow, but certainly not in that class. Yet we pay him as one.

And to the poster who says he's our best offensive weapon, he's kicked 99 goals in 122 games at 0.8 goals a game. Hardly world-beating numbers.

I think some of you tend to wear rose-tinted sunnies when it comes to this player.

Gee this forum entertains me ! Mate glad you have nothing to do with list management

Sorry, you can't flame bait me

You'll just have to take it up with Juddy's grandma if you want more details

But you said this. You are wrong, there is no way it can happen. Mate seriously I'm on the verge of calling you something very bad. Please tell me what you know today. I'm demanding you do.

:) :) :)

PS In this thread last November you said this. "insert link"

I don't know, I guess considering it is a public forum, the intended audience would be the entire forum community, not just those with over 5000 posts.

How quickly a rumor about Sylvia struggling with contract negotiations turns into a discussion about his ability and role within the team...

Sylvia, at the moment, is easily one of our best and most important players. Sure he's a bit inconsistent and apparently lacks leadership qualities (name a Melbourne player who isn't in the same boat), but he is a genuine match winner on his day.

spot on and when the side improves around him his true value will come to the fore.

Col is a must have. He is the only player in our side(Greeny used to be up there) that can turn a game or really have an influence. Of all out players which most are with the " if they play to their talent" Col is at the top of the heap.

In the next 5 years we will lose players as our cap is going to be maxed so get used to it.

I watched the footage of when we beat Richmond, and the way that Col sang the song with no emotion whatsoever has led me to believe 2 things, 1} He doesn't want to wear the red and blue anymore, and 2} he is going to sign with Richmond and is disappointed that he outplayed his future teammates on the day.

    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

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    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
