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.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
