The Brendan Fevola Saga

[jacey 333]

Not hardly ground breaking but its official.

Brendan Fevola sacked from Lions

It is believed the Lions reached their decision after being granted salary cap relief by the AFL to alleviate the hole left by paying out Fevola's contract.

"The Brisbane Lions AFC has tonight advised Brendan Fevola that his contract with the club has been terminated," the club said in statement on Sunday.

Bradshaw, Brennan, Rischetilli, Henderson, Kane Lucas. Gotta Love Vossy!

The lowest mongrel act in football since some loser got drunk on Brownlow night a couple of years ago.

[RalphiusMaximus 6,099]

Hell, at least they're paying him out. It's not like he's being left penniless.

[Chelly 830]

When the bookies get to him and he has a few sessions of five card stud he'll be penniless.

Now the saints can pay the right price for him. they wanted him last time but could not take on his contract left from Carlton.

Fev the Saints all down at Frankston

That will last about 6 weeks for him. They should pay him out with food and taxi vouchers plus cheap accommodation in Southbank.

We are stupid if we don't recruit him.

He'd be cheap now, has got his act sorted out and would be able to teach Jurrah & Watts how to go about it (& protect them).

This would be a flag-securing move.

The gun gorilla FF we've been waiting for.

Do it Bailey!

Has someone hacked your account?!

Fevola has been blacklisted by the football gods.

He is not meant to win a flag.

We will steer clear.

These are not the droids you are looking for.

This is our chance - we gotta strike now while the iron's hot!

Quick, before hawthorn or Richmond get him!

Hell no. Frankston may be full of druggies and dole bludgers, but we still have standards!

The best thing for Fevola would be to get out of football, go somewhere where he is not a "celebrity" and experience normal life.

As normal as it can be to get paid out $1.5 mil for being a royal f&@k up.

It is incredible isn't it!!! I do hope Fev can sort out some sort of life though.

if the media keep hounding him i think he will be a temporary Australian, it will be interesting to see what happens...

Bugger that! Retrain him as a mid to replace Scully.

[drdrake 3,187]

I wonder what odds I can get for him to be in a Carlton or GWS Jumper next year.

agreed

most of the people that get stuck into him probably make a mess of themselves every Saturday night too

the difference is nobody is watching them like a hawk wherever they go

I agree Too C&B he who is without fault cast the first stone!

I just feel sad such a great talent has been wasted!

Hope he can gets his life in order for the first time!

Don't really blame the Lions they really in the end had no choice, it was a Voss based disaster.

God only knows why he thought it was worth all the trouble two years ago.

In the end it will probably cost him the job at the lions.

'Hey, this guy was a great player and he was captain. Despite the fact he has no coaching experience, let's appoint him as senior coach and assume everything will work out'

Let's just hope the same thing happens to Essendon

Why wouldn't they, Carlton are a key forward away from being a top 4 side and Sheedy will back himself to keep him on the straight and narrow. Plus you would get him for nothing. Carlton will put a huge positive spin membership will go through the roof. Give him 12 mths to get his life together, give him a training program to keep him fit and also exercise is great to help battle depression, it gives him something to do. He has still got 2-3 years in him as long as his head is right.

Because firstly they already considered his position untenable once, and I doubt their memories are that short. He's been in the system for a lot of years now and never, at any stage, has he shown any signs that he might start acting like a responsible adult. He's now been dismissed from a second club for his behaviour - this was meant to be his fresh start in his career and his life. If he can't get it together in those circumstances, why would next time be any different?

You can't just keep tossing in these "if his head is right" clauses. The overwhelming evidence shows that as long as he's in the environment he's in, his head will never be right for long enough for sustained success. In order to really fix his head and his life, he has to be away from the public eye.
