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

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.

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.

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.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
