How many weeks will sylvia get?

Featured Replies

That hit sylvia put on brennan looked like a player who was frustrated and didnt want to be there.

I reckon he is looking at 2-3

 

Damn he was in Brownlow medal form too.

I am staggered anyone views him as a "leader" in this club.

I really could not give a stuff about him. He will be gone at year end.

 

Put in AT TIMES today. Completely over him. Could not care less if he ever plays in the red and blue again.

If true justice were to be meted out, however, there would be 'insufficient footage to place a charge'.


Tha AFL definition of "off the ball" seems to vary considerably, and his victim was up and walking a few minutes later, so I'm not sure about high impact - fair enough with the rest.

Mis-placed aggression and frustration. You can sort of understand it, but geez it'll cost us.

High impact? why cause Brennan is soft? He ended up on the bench and fine and I don't think he was really knocked out more just very sore

Off the ball? No it was in play to stop the run. That's why he was using his arms as a blocking motion. Just didn't expect Brennan to try and duck under him.

High contact, yes.

Intentional? No. People don't hit people with strange two handed elbows to the side of the head. If he wanted to hit him he would've punched him. Reckless

Dog act? Not really. When did this go so far from a mans game. Was it clean? No. Should be hung and quartered? No way!

At the end of the day it was very silly. It reminds me a lot of the Kosi hit on Elliot. No way did Kosi mean to smash him. But everyone left right and centre was having a go at Kosi.

2-3 weeks is plenty. Think about Barry Hall getting 7 for punching a guy clean off the ball if you think this deserves 6. Also it certainly wasn't an action to line up and drill a guy to knock them out or attempt to break their necks.

At least he had a go If only half the team had a quarter hid\s passion we would be far better off!

 

It's no worse than Jettas which got 2 weeks. So...2 weeks is my prediction.

Don't care how many

Sylvia is all about potential and its unfortunate he has never got past that level since he was recruited

Also proves why he is not leadership material

Edited by Swampfox


Having just seen the replay I would say 4-6.

Off the ball.

High impact.

High contact.

Intentional.

Dog act.

Easily the dirtiest act of the year (go to Huns website, footage there). Will be surprised if he gets away with less than 4.

3 weeks. Poor decision, based on frustration.

Colin actually was one of our better players (against those who say he is a downhill skier). His ability and skill to kick the left foot goal was an example of his talent.

See him out the door, good riddance.

are you serious.

along with 3-4 players today was the only one who did something


Sometimes doing nothing is more efficient than the something Sylvia does. If Sylvia won the ball and ran like Matt Jones or Evans he'd be twice the player.

In some ways he's trying. But he's still miles off his potential.

If Sylvia's out for 3-4 weeks then it might give us a chance to give Taggert a go. Or even better, Magner.

4 down to 3.

An enforced holiday won't be the worst thing - every cloud.
Richmond could get real ugly though.

Frustration written all over that.... I can understand.

He is playing with a lot more accountability and conviction this season.

To those who think we should get rid of him, who do you think we'd recruit to replace him? This is the same issue as we've seen. Rivers effectively "traded" for Gillies, Moloney for no other inside Mid.

3 weeks max didn't look too bad and wasn't going for his head, rather was a bit late

Brennan hitting his head on the ground didn't help him concussion wise either.

yeah 2-3, pity because he's been pretty good the last month or so.

. You forgot the "MFC multiplier factor" so more likely 8.

  • PREVIEW: Brisbnae

    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.
