Lucky he still had time for a selfie!

All the best Colin, get better soon.

Gotta love the patients who won't keep their necks straight despite being warned of irrereversible spinal cord disease.

selfys first

Herald Sun headline is Ex AFL Star - I get they need to pump up the news - but Col? A star? meh...

Col could have been a real star but simply lacked consistency. Played some brilliant games. Get well soon Col.

These days you have a serious accident and whats your first thought. Share it on social media. 

I bet he checked in to the Alfred on his Facebook as well.

Bleeding on the brain, Coln should be fine.

Could have been, would liked to have been,  but maybe didn't want to enough.

Good luck. Lucky escape you the sound of it.

Col is a lovable larrikin. Hope he makes a quick recovery - not a good start to his preseason.

But just wait until he manages a full preseason. This is a novel way to miss out on it. 

A salutary lesson in Newtonian physics for Col.

His poor mother must be beside herself.

Are you suggesting the apple doesn't fall far from the tree?

Did the poor lady go over the balcony as well?

I love the hashtag of wakeupcall. Like getting cut from the Dockers the way that he did wasn't a wake up call.

That being said I hope he recovers and realizes that he is 31 now and not 21.

Fractured vertebrae, but still twists his neck to get a better selfie angle.

 

Lucky he landed on his head. Could have done some serious damage if he landed on another part of his body.

Every player who makes seniors is classed as a star nowadays.

She's so upset she's having an "out-of-body" experience?

  • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
