Colin in the news

Featured Replies

 

Details soon to come, but heard from a good source Colin Silvia left the scene of a car crash that his car was involved in at 6am was a passenger

 

He does seem to stuff up a hell of a lot. Just doesn't consistently play well enough to be excused for being a bit of a tool.

Leopard never changes his spot.

Wonder what he was doing out at 6:45am?

trying to avoid international rules training


Can't get stuck into him too much right now. Details are still not fully given. For all we know he was on his way to some running track for some early morning fitness when someone from another car or his mate who was driving did something silly. In that case, we'd all feel sorry for him.

Not saying he didn't do anything wrong as he may have at 6:45 but wait for more details before hammering him completely...

hopefully! but unlikely....

 

So if he wasnt driving, what has he done wrong?

Dont say he was out at 6:45am. It is off-season, he is on holidays. He can be out as late as he wants.


Hopefully a team mate wasn't the driver !

I will watch closely and reserve judgement till more is known.

Heath Shaw?

Michael Gardiner?

Doesn't look good .He will not be given an opportunity to play for Australia now.I went to Whitten Oval today and it was a buzz of gossip with many wild stories. All with grog.Hope they are ALL wrong and he was just going to St Kilda for an early dip- HA HA

Is it an offense for a passenger to leave the scene of a car accident?

When the passenger is the owner of the car, I imagine it might be.

Heath Shaw?

He was just trying to make Neeld feel at home :-)


If Colin is in trouble it will be interesting to see how the club respond under Neeld's reign. Hoping it is just a slow news week and they are blowing this up to be more than a very minor indiscretion.

When the passenger is the owner of the car, I imagine it might be.

No, the driver of the car must exchange details in an accident and if someone is injured it must be reported to the police. The passenger has no obligation. Also, when you say "leave the scene of an accident", you obviously are meaning before the exchange of details, as everyone who is able to , leaves the scene of an accident at some stage.

the seven news just said demons bad boy involved in an accident then went on to bring up something about a restraining order years ago REALLY, what has that got to do with him being a passenger in a car crash, morons

Doesn't look good .He will not be given an opportunity to play for Australia now.

If he has done nothing wrong why shouldn't he play?

Storm in a teacup.

Based on the Hun and the Age nothing on Colin here ladies. Safe to move along now.

If they could give a wingnut like Fevola an Ireland jolly then I think Colin has no issues with representing Australia in the upcoming circus.

Huh. I wonder if another AFL player was driving?

No!

When you are due to train the next day or whenever and play a week later you don't go out to 6:45 even if it is the off season. And if you aren't [censored] or on drugs or worried about what the cops/media are going to do you don't flee the scene when your expensive car has just hit and brought down a power pole. If it was 6:45pm and I was a passenger in my car that hit a power pole I'd be pretty keen to stick around and make sure the right procedures are followed, is that unreasonable?

Technically he's probably done not too much wrong, but in pursuit of professionalism this is a massive amateur effort.

A serious punishment must be handed down. He's had too many priors. Missing the Int Rules doesn't count. The question is what can we punish him with? He doesn't seem to worry about missing one or two games or fines. First 5 weeks of the season playing in Casey's backline would be my suggestion.

Yeah, poor form from 7.

People these days don't like to give people second chances and let them move on with their lives. The Media just keep on stirring up as much turbidity as they can hoping something will stick.

Every young single man needs to go out on the turps occasionally. And occasionally get wasted.

Too much Stress in todays World.

IF, he wasn't driving, then I hope the other wasn't too far over the limit. Thats the only thing here.

have a look at who was at the scene and took the photo for the hearld sun ?

  • 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.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
