Colin SYLVIA

2015 Digest:   Spotted running in early December after undergoing ankle surgery post-season, but not seen since Christmas. The Dockers remain adamant he has not had a setback and will return to training soon.

2015 NAB Cup:   Got sent to Peel because he wasn’t meeting standards. Hasn’t returned.

2013 Season

Played for : Melbourne

1	Port	Injected into the midfield and gave a bit going forward. A liability going the other way.	4
2	Ess	Is there a more disappointing player for a man of his talent? Poor is an understatement.	1
3	WCE	A threat up forward and worked his backside off in the middle.	7
4	GWS	When he’s on he’s a class player. Got the comeback going in the final term.	7
5	Bris	Spent more time through midfield again. Good forward of the ball, little in defence.	6
6	Carl	Kicked two goals and OK but sense there is more he can give – 12 contested poss.	6
7	GCS	OK in patches but a crude elbow on Brennan marred his day – 10 contested poss.	6
8		Suspended.
9		Suspended.
10		Suspended.
11	Coll	Tried hard when forward or midfield. Won team-high 11 contested possessions.	6
13	StK	Had a lot of the ball but kicking lacked usual certainty.	7
14	WB	Did some tough stuff. Bone-rattling tackle on Dahlhaus in last quarter a beauty.	6
15	Syd	Handy enough to didn’t hit the scoreboard all day – only two inside-50s.	5
16	Geel	Threw himself in but no inside-50s and only seven effective disposals not enough.	4
17	Bris	Great battle with Rockliff in midfield. Had colours lowered but one of the best.	7
18	NM	Eight tackles but needed more support through the middle.	6
19	GWS	Just the 13 touches and never looked a factor. Disappointing showing.	4
20	GCS	Steady without being outstanding.	5
21	Frem	Found the ball well but bombed away too often for an experienced player.	4
22	Adel	In the right place at right time with two great opportunist goals.	6
23	WB	Simply couldn’t get into action.	4

2012 Season

Played for : Melbourne

5	StK	Returning to side as sub coming on in third term and quickly into it.	2
6	Geel	Didn’t hit targets and rarely found any space. Still finding his feet.	3
7	Haw	Couldn’t make any impact in first half then sparked up briefly.	2
8	Syd	Not the Sylvia of old as unable to break free and often caught with the ball.	3
10	Ess	Put an imprint on latter part of game.	4
11	Coll	Copped hit to nose from Brown in second term but no excuse for poor game.	3
13	GWS	Attacked the pill with zest and kicked one great goal – 10 inside-50s.	7
14	Bris	Best game in some weeks. Worked hard and tried to give a spark.	7
15	Rich	Thrown into the middle at times and won plenty of ball but wasted much of it.	5
16	Frem	Ran through the midfield most of the match. Faded badly after halftime.	6
17	Port	Slowish start but then had strong second half.	6
18	NM	His three last term goals flattered his game as only 3 touches to half-time.	3
19	GCS	Dangerous running forward of centre all match – two goals, three inside-50s.	7
20	StK	Only two kicks and after recent lift went backwards.	3
21	GWS	Rebounded from a poor performance last week to help his side to victory.	6
22	Adel	Leading possession winner on the ground with 34 in a strong display.	8
23	Frem	The team’s highest for disposals, clearances and inside 50s.	7
