So it boils down to your belief that

  1. Fev is unable to overcome his flawed history and will repeat his past negative behavior
  2. the MFC culture is too delicate to cope with a bad Fev
  3. MFC should not take risks to win footy games now
  4. MFC will win a Premiership without taking a risk

As a counter I believe that

  1. Fev is can overcome his flawed history and will perform well for his third team as he seeks redemption
  2. if the MFC culture continues to be mollycoddled it will never mature into the winning culture we all want
  3. MFC should be able to chew gum and walk at the same time, i.e. aspire to win footy games now and build a premiership team
  4. MFC will not win a Premiership via a risk adverse, accountants approach to micro-managed performance graphs, player development and statistics.

Both viewpints are valid, I'll just get more entertainment and fun out of seeing Fev run out for the MFC next year against the Blues...

    Please Please stop this Fev talk!! My breakfast is still settling. Fev will still have major problems in the world when he is old and grey, I say that sadly.

    I like Fev, and he is not altogether stupid, but he has chemical imbalances that must be managed daily.

    He will not play for the MFC...we have young guns growing for that.

    I wish Fev all the best, his last interview on Ch 7 was a beauty, but we do not need another "Quick Fix" Recruit. We have had more than enough of them.

    Just be a little patient Paul.

    Better tell that to Dougy too WYL lol. Anyone hear him on S.E.N. this morning?

    Fev has much to prove, mostly to himself. A nice fairytale if he can come out and prove that he's not as washed up/carrying unplayable baggage & scars as is being suggested by all his doomsayers. Be a shame if he wastes all that talent from here.

    It's not like he's bashed someone silly etc. Just got a problem with the jolly juice. Aint the first and wont be the last in the AFL to have had that. 25 - 30 years ago his misdemeanors off field wouldn't have rated much.

    I for one hopes he can overcome his addiction to the pale ale and whatever other vice/s he might be having problems with, if any, and comes out playing some great AFL footy once again, regardless of the club.

    Good luck to him.

    He might even kick arse out there IF he makes it back. (As long as it's not ours and he doesn't put a filth/hawks/bombers/crows jumper on lol)

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
