How many weeks will sylvia get?

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

    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
