As Al Pacino said in Any Given Sunday, "there's a point where this game has to be about more than just winning games of football..."

Fevola does not belong at MFC and anyone that thinks he would be a good fit there is unfortunately not very intelligent.

Fin.

Unfortunately thats been MFC's problem for a few years now!!!!! I wish there was a point where winning games did become a priority.

Winning flags become the priority at the start of 2008.

That's what I would prefer to win.

When Fev had his dreads we used to call him "Side Show Bob" and like that character Fev's moments of contriteness and recognition that he is just one part of a larger team dissapear when the alcohol or pressure reveal his true narcissistic core. Having said that, I'd get so much amusement watching the MFC tear the Blues apart with Fev in our forward it would almost me worth the inevitable calamity that is Side Show Bob.

That last line is you not allowing reality in to the situation.

He is 30, and has his injury problems.

By the time our window is open (and no-one think that Fev with a decent midfield can win you a flag - Brett Ratten would tell you otherwise) Fev will be gone or going and we will have to find another to kick our goals.

We have to continue what we are doing, and not waiver.

i can't believe this decision by Casey, it shows how much they listen to their AFL affiliate club. In my eyes this is purely a dollars decision and not a footy decision

Fev is a cancer

The best case scenario would be for Fev to behave himself, earn respect from the Melbourne Footy club and we draft him for 2 years when we're giving the top 8 a shot. A forward line of Fev and Jurrah would scare the crap out of the comp.

Otherwise what a waste of time from a development point of view.

This is good for Casey as a club, he'll bring fans to them.

I hope he doesn't eff it up. And maybe guys like Tom McDonald and our other defenders can learn how to defend against a talented and big bodied forward.

And the decision by the MFC to play Watts against the Pies for his first game wasn't? of course the course of action taken by Casey is partly a money situation, they have to survive as well, if he can contain himself for the year he can teach some of our young picks a bit about football, if not he will get the chop quick smart.

Being reported on herald sun website, although there source is the leader newspaper.

Is this is a good decision for the Melbourne football club - probably not.

Is this very exciting for the Scorps - hell yes!

I don't have a problem with it. He is a scorpian player, not a dee and would only associate with our players on match day. Besides we don't have any full forwards training down at casey. Will give some of our young mids an opportunity to learn to kick to a real full forward.

Casey is Fevs home town anyway.

Whats done is done.

The main problem I see from watching Carlton and brissy (with brown out) kick the ball to fev 9/10 times because like it or not the bastard is quick and presents as a target everytime when the midfield looks up.

Lucas cook won't get a look in.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    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.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    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
