Anyone care to disagree with me?

I dare you to.

 
I disagree.

As do I.

Y_M your constant barraging of Cameron Bruce is getting old... as is your undying love for Colin Sylvia.

You know it. Don't deny it. You will just look more foolish.

Why isn't your name Sylvias_Little_Bitch ??? Sure seems like you are.


15 Colin Sylvia possesions..thats exactley whats wrong with him..it should be 25 Colin Sylvia possesions..lazy, one way player, with little or no real football brain.

If only he had more posts writing off club greats hey redandblue? :rolleyes:

While I love Sylvia, one of my absolute favourites.

And while I would love to say, yeah Sylvia is wiked and everytime he gets it im happy.

You are ruining plenty of fairly strong arguments of how Sylvia is a good player and making it a total bias Bruce bashing saga. Who like it or not has been our best player this year, and is only now getting into full fitness.

Nieta is past it. Fact -not my fault.


It MIGHT be true, except for the fact that over the last 5 years, it has taken Colin 3 consecutive games to acrue 15 posessions.

Therefore; WRONG.

Heh, good point.

I agree to disagree... :blink:

cameron bruce made more of an impact in his first year.. colin "one handball in my debut" sylvia didn't! cameron bruce can play midfield AND forward! colin sylvia cant! cameron bruce doesn't hit woman, colin sylvia does! cameron bruce doesn't go out and gets [censored] and doesn't rock up to training! colin sylvia does!

seriously grow up! bruce is more worthy then sylvia will every be! another top pick player not reaching there ability!

im sick of em

I COMPLETELY AGREE but you havent picked up that Cameron Bruce is half an opposition player he kicks it to them 50% of the time Colin Sylvia when fit is a very deadly kick we are on the verge of seeing this


I disagr....

Damn. Baited again.

Meh, give the baby his dummy, then sit back and laugh at him for another couple of weeks, it's all about stroking the ego

It may very well be , BUT he's probably right when we talk about QUALITY of possessions .

Joeboy, you of all people should understand that demonland.com is no place for facts and reality...

(Psst, I actually agree with him but don't tell anyone ;) )

I don't agree with him at all. I reckon we only notice the bad Cam Bruce posessions because the ones that are bad are REALLY bad, and it taints our view of how he plays. If Cam Bruce got 40 possessions I'd wager that at least 30 of them were to the team's benefit. If Sylvia only got 15 on the same day, it wouldn't be too hard to see who was of more benefit to the team then.

I have to wonder if anyone on this boasrd actually pays attention when they watch Melbourne play.

Sylvia never wastes the ball, and is a beautiful kick on both sides of his body.

Bruce runs around doing useless little handballs to nobody in particular, or towards the boundary line to dispose quickly and avoid contact.

And if you dont believe me, watch the 2nd half of the Demons-Lions game to see just how superior Sylvia is to Bruce in every respect.

wow. one half of football in ? 5 years he's been at the club?

absolute star

I think hes done a tad more than that, Eastie

I have to wonder if anyone on this boasrd actually pays attention when they watch Melbourne play.

Except that Bruce averages 5.5 errors a match, and Sylvia's average is 5.8.

They both average less than 2 contested possessions a game too.

Give it a rest Yze_Magic, or it might fall off.

  • PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

  • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.
