Leoncelli_36 2,264 Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 ‘landers it’s with a real heavy heart that I deliver this news, but I have it on very good authority that Col Sylvia has passed away in a car accident over the weekend. Please keep his family in your prayers. It has not hit the media yet, and if the mods wanna pull the thread, then I understand. Col was a great contributor to our club through some dark days and we should remember him this way. rip Col 9 1 8 21 Quote

Jibroni 5,058 Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 (edited) Oh no that's horrible to hear. Gone too soon, thoughts and prayers with the family. Edited October 28, 2018 by Jibroni Quote
Guest Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 (edited) Seriously horrible news. I was hoping Col would have a chance to put his life back together as it was seeming to spiral out of control. A bloke dieing that young is a tragedy if this is true. And if so, his parents need all the understanding in the world. Edited October 28, 2018 by Colin B. Flaubert Quote
Queanbeyan Demon 7,027 Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 Apparently true. And there will be a serious investigation is my mail. Quote
Vineytime 855 Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 RIP Colin Sylvia if what being reported by Tony Sheahan is correct. Quote
YesitwasaWin4theAges 6,830 Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 Just heard the news come through unbelievable. Quote
Leoncelli_36 2,264 Posted October 28, 2018 Author Posted October 28, 2018 I can now confirm that it is a sad truth. I am sure details will surface soon, but I think we should just be respectful and keep the family and Col in our prayers tonight. Before any speculation starts, it was a motor vehicle accident. 2 Quote

Frustrated Demon 252 Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 Is there a link to this as I can’t find anything. Has it happened like in the last hour or so. This is [censored] if that’s the case Quote

This is [censored] if that’s the case I can't find any corroborating evidence of this story. Tony Sheehan posted it on Twitter but all other posts about it seem to be based on that. No news organisations have reported about it yet. Not saying it isn't true but there is no other sources at this time. Here is the Twitter post. Quote
1964nowMORE 493 Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 Also had it confirmed. Terrible news. Rest In Peace, such a talent unfulfilled in many ways. Quote

Demon Disciple 12,537 Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 Tragic news. Was my favourite player whilst at the Dees. Played a couple of great games (30+ possessions and 4 goals against the Hawks comes to mind). He had a troubled second half of his life. May you rest in peace Col. 2 1 Quote
Sir Why You Little 37,459 Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 So sad to die young.... Quote
