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.

    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
