Sylvia's season is over unless he challenges successfully, as he's copped two weeks with an early plea.

Davey got one with the early plea. Would have been dropped, anyway...

    Actually I think this is OK.

    It's time to send players with stiff Joints and in need of repair, to pasture.

    This Is Now our time to see next years boys.

    1/ C'mon Tommy McDonald. 2/ C'mon Troy Davis. 3/ Give Maric another run. 4/ Play Gawn a gain. 5/ Give little Jett-a Go.

    1/ Rest Howe @ Casey for the finals? 2/ Give Garland a rest. 3/ Col out Susp'. 4/ Rest the Russian. 5/ Aaron out Susp' or Dropped.

    C'mon, Lets see 'Em...

    I'm surprised.

    Sylvia's was high but he was just trying to give a bit to richmond. Was unlucky to get him high. Thought it deserved a week for recklessness.

    Davey was fired up and lined the player up and raised an elbow, clearly trying to hit Morton in the head. Only gets one week.

    Actually looking at the points now and Sylvia got a 30% increase due to a bad record, so an early doesn't reduce the weeks at all.

    Silly not to challenge it, then.

    I agree UTAH. Have no issue with either of em going for a trip, but absolutely reckon they got the penalties the wrong way round. It is the MRP though, and let's face it, their known for their consistency as much as Colin Sylvia B)

    Im confused, granted Sylvia got him late and a touch high but it was a half hearted bump, you could see Post wait until he was sure of a whistle then he bobbed up....Waters of WC, opted not to go for the ball and collected Watson with force enough to knock him out and render him ineffective for the remainder of the game..(unsure if he came back on). He may not have meant it, but he did it. I was convinced Waters would get weeks.

    The MRP is a joke. Their only consistencies are their inconsistency and the confusion they cause week-in, week-out.

    Did anyone else catch the Richmond player giving Watts a cheap elbow to the breadbasket? If it had been caught on vision I have no doubt the dog would be gone for a week.

    So I guess Sylvia's possible last game for MFC was a bit of a cracker.

    sorry..this gave me a chuckle..

    drier than a London gin ..lol

    it was Titch Edwards.....and Jack wasnt too happy at all getting a cheap one to the ballsies. Jordie Mc saw it happen also and was giving a bit of push and shove over it. fk i love Jnr Jnr.

    I'm thrilled that two of our guys got suspended and another got fined. It's the first sign this season that there's some fight in this team. Davey may have had a terrible game, but at least he cared enough to clobber someone. It's this sort of atitude that needs to become more prevalent in our side if we want to improve.

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      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?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
