    The terms 'flatters to deceive' was invented for sportsmen like Sylvia.To my mind his bad habits are now too far gone to break and we would do well to trade him and get something of genuine value while we can.

    Fortunately there was someone at the club with more sense than this! And it was resolved before the season closed.....

    Great news .... As far as I'm concerned this is a more important signing than TS at this point in time. People on here that don't rate Colin and suggest he is slow have absolutely 0% of an idea.

    Great stuff (12)

    No one really says he CANT play...its whether he comes to play, and then whether he plays all day.

    Quite honestly one of the most frustrating players on our list.

    Well the club and he have sorted something. Hopefully he'll earn the money. Happy if he does.

    We'll see.

    Most of the article was nicey-nicey spin and guff, exactly what you'd expect.

    We'll be watchiing Col. Youve spoken the talk...next season's walk time !!

    Very happy we signed him our best player !

    According to the MFC website, he was so happy about the new Contract, rather than SIGNING it, he SANG it...!

    "...Colin Sylvia has committed to the Club, singing a contract extension..."

    Very happy we signed him our best player !

    If it means that he's now going to start to play like he's our best player, it'll be worth it.

    I hope it doesn't mean he can now coast for two years :unsure:

    I must now eat my words, as I'm sure they can be dug up easily.

    And BLOODY HAPPY to do so.

    Awesome.

    I reckon Sylvia has had a look at future football abscurity (curtisy of Green and Davey) and will have a rip snorting 2012...

  • Quote

    Hopefully he didn't sign because dees already know scully's decision.

    But i am over the moon Sylvia committed to us and F**** off media you got another story wrong.

    more like he knows who the coach is.

    Hopefully this is the case for Scully, Morton and Martin.

    morton to the trade table, send him north or send him home

    Happy news.

    I've come to terms with the fact that Sylvia will never be consistent enough to be a true a star, but as our side becomes stronger I expect his ability to tear a game open will be great "icing" and I'd rather have him in our side than not.

    Here's hoping he can continue to bridge the gap between his best and worst.

    I've actually voted or him to be the next Captain i reckon it could have a profound effect on Sylvia.

    But i've been wrong before.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
