When Neita had retired and Robbo was injured. Regardless, you implied that he hadn't kick 2 in a match for a long time, which is incorrect

Not that I'm advocating him, but he's kicked 2 goals in 3 of his last 4 outings

I'd probably argue the opposite. PJ is one player who has always seemed down on confidence, when he started to get game time and believe in his ability last year he started to play his best footy.

Would it hurt PJ to go back to Casey?

Sylvia should be reminded of what is required of an AFL listed player and sent back to work it out for himself

Probably just wants to gain attention. No doubt if we asked him, and expressed that we were "die-hards", he'd probably just claim that we were the "exception." I heard him do this in '07, ignoring the fact that if you deleted all "die-hards" from a club because they are the "exception," each club's supporter base would look frail. Absolute rubbish

Given time I think he could get back to the way he played in the first season. Time to settle into his role, time to gain confidence

Can someone explain how Sylvia made his way back into the team this week? Did he train ridiculously well?

If he views it as a Premiership winning strategy, then I am happy for him to implement it and draft accordingly, as he has by picking fast and skillful players. Roos has picked his own strategy for his team, and adapted his team accordingly. He also has much better "cattle" to work with than we do at present.

That's right, we don't have the cattle

Not Travis Cloke though

I thought they had joined last week, behind the Punt Road goals the cheer squad looked pretty big I thought our supporters got behind the boys really well in the first half, when we get into it we're as loud as anyone.

I suppose Demonland could just make up the votes himself...but that would kind of defeat the purpose wouldn't it?

What's with the one metre handballs he kept receiving before taking two steps to pass it 20m? Why couldn't the original ball carrier simply pass the ball and Davey provide a target?

Our forwardline is killing us. It literally is stopping us from progressing IMO. We try as hard as we can for 2-3 quarters, but I can't help but think it demoralises our players when they work so hard to get the ball to have no options, outnumbered options or poor options to kick to

Sylvia was given a chance he didn't deserve and did nothing

-17 points...Colin Sylvia. Not best 22

Best call in footy - kick it long!

Why oh why was I born in Flower's last year. I wish I could've seen him!

I wonder if Rod Nicholson will write an article about the 30-11 free kick count in St Kilda's favour tonight? I hope the umpiring doesn't get altered tomorrow as well

Love when people get one thing right and then claim everyone else is shallow for not seeing it.

Is this top draft picks in terms of worst? or best?

Why oh why were we claiming that we were having a good run with injuries in the off season?!?!

MCG - Wet weather? Not unless it's raining during the match

At least we know what he's made of, we now get to see what Martin has and also one of the other rookies. Very sad though, wish him all the best
