The fact that Sylvia was involved in a crash at breakfast time makes him a cereal offender. Boom. Tish. Thank you. I'll be here all week. Try the veal.

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.

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...

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.

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.

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

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.

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
