So long Col! Did some great things when you could be bothered.

Could have really been something but sadly i will always remember you as being the boy who never emotionally matured into a man.

By your own choice.

Wow. What a 2006 pic.

Says it all without saying much (or identifying the young woman).

For mine his latest inane comments only to go to dismiss any if possible lingering doubts that hes has always really been a lazy , selfish , non team orientated cancer within our midst. His delusion borders on a total misunderstanding of his own intellect and his demeaning seeking of excuses on narcisssm .

I have no idea what freo or indeed Lyon thinks he can do with HiHo nor do I care. Im glad we are ridding ourselves of this ilk. we were never going to climb whilst his type was amongst us.

cant wait to play freo

Always like Col but his comments that his best is still ahead of him anoyed me. Thanks for nothing Col, To be the player he wants and Freo xpects he needs to take responsibilit for his own performance rather than wait for a good team help him get better. He had the ability to drag the MFC kicking and screaming to where it needed to be but instead cruised through his career in second gear and then gaves us the thumb.

Hope he gets to play finals and recon he will as small forward for Freo but it will annoy me

Yep I agree. Under Ross Lyon he will get a huge reality check

And quite possibly will start to realise his potential.

...or not

Is that wall in the background the Melbourne Magistrates Court?

Don't know Undeterred - but you seem to recognise it. As lawyer or defendent?

And just for kicks, dare i say...CAPTION THIS:colinsylvia.jpg

"Can't wait to go Freo, Beamer! They're gonna make me into a star, just like I always wanted!

And I'm gonna be at a great club, just like you! And I hear Northbridge is a good as Fortitude Valley.

You were so right - karma IS a [censored]!

By the way, didn't manage to watch many Brisbane games this year - how many wins did you guys get?

Must be great playing under an inspirational guy like Vossy..."

I wanted Sylvia to be captain a few years ago. Since then I've watched him find himself second to the ball more often than not. Then he had to try to tackle, which he didn't do too well and, let's face it, he really didn't want to tackle. Players have to want to defend; it doesn't happen naturally. When he hit the ball running, every now an then, he was unbelievable. I don't expect him to succeed - a la Woey - and it is quite possible, he will be watching future demons performances thinking: " Geeezuuus. I could have been part of that!"

Clearly he did not want to be at the MFC any longer.

So good luck to him.

Now lets build a Club everyone wants to play for.

Despite his physique, he always thrived as an outside runner and finisher.

He is like a Buzzard. Reliant on others to do the job before they would involve themselves.

I am sure he will thrive at Freo where he has players to do things before he has to involve himself.

To that end - maybe he will play the best footy of his career...

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play
