Featured Replies

And smoke it- great news.he will be in the leadership group next year.

No he won't.

 

Critical signing for our immediate future and success.

Showing plenty and will only look better when we have a modicum of depth/ talent around him

rapt, my favourite player, and our best.

Hopefull he can become the best player in the league, at 26 he should be ready.

Not our best at all , Toni .


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 a clubman to look up to good on ya colin !!!!

Great news made my day !!! now for Tom ???

 

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:

Awesome, about time we had some good news :)

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...

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.

  • PREVIEW: Brisbane

    They really had me fooled when I picked them with great confidence to beat the Bombers at Gather Round last week. I should have recognised that nothing is more quintessentially Melbourne than defeating the undefeated early premiership favourite one week and losing to a winless cellar dweller on its way to establishing a record losing streak the next.
