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.

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

    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?

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
