    Suellen Hindle - Herald Sun - 1 Jan

    AFL footballer and Brisbane Lions player Brendan Fevola has been arrested in Brisbane during New Year's Eve celebrations.

    Police confirmed that a 29-year-old man Norman Park man was arrested at 4.30am in Brunswick St, Fortitude Valley.

    He has been charged with public nuisance and obstructing police.

    It is alleged that when police approached he became aggressive and refused to co-operate with their orders.

    At 7.30am he was still in custody but is expected to be bailed today to appear in court on January 18.

    * I wonder if his New Year's Resolution was to behave himself?

          He is a stupid, stupid man but maybe if the Lions let him go, he might fit in well with the culture at the Aints! (Oh, I'm a very bad girl )

            The funniest bit is that we don't even bother to start a new thread when he plays up anymore, just add another note to the thread we've got. Ho hum.

              If he gets sacked, how does he pay his debts and whats to stop him racking up more?
              Might be a victim of suicide or disappear, sad when you consider the natural talent he had given to him at birth.

                That's so true. Fev just disappeared into oblivion and everyone says "Told ya, that was always going to happen"
                They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                  Not funny, it's sad. He obviously has a major problem (or three) and either isn't getting, or can't make use of, the help he needs. It's gone way beyond a joke now. Poor bastard.

                    Agree, it's deeper than just being an idiot, has some serious issues.

                      I don't really give a crap about an over paid 9 year old in an adult body , I worry about Alex and the children , they are the innocent victims who will pay a higher emotional price than Brendan can imagine . Alex needs to drop him like a hot rock, take her half of what he hasn't pissed, vomited or thrown away and get on with her life. The Brisbane Board needs to drop him like a hot rock, forgiving him his indiscretions just reinforces Brendan's attitude that he can do what he likes , when he likes and he will only get some media scrutiny and a rap over the knuckles . Brendan needs to walk away from his AFL career and get on with life as a civilian , the money, the media attention , has poisoned his mind , and the only antidote to that poison is a good dose of reality

                      .

                        My first reaction was "Idiot"... but as others have said, he has some serious issues that he hasn't or can't deal with. Having people close to me who've been through similar situations (although not related to gambling), the easy and quick response is to say "To hell with them"... but then, as dumb as he is, and as much damage as he's done (to himself and others), he is also someone's father, husband and son. Football aside, I hope for his and his family's sake, that he's able to recover from whatever issues he's facing.

                          Yes, upon reflection I must admit I feel sad for him. He obviously has many issues, i.e., gambling and alcohol, and unfortunately because he is in the public's eye, we get to see and hear all about them. In the end, he won't be remembered for the great goals he has kicked but for the stupid things he has done!

                            He's really doing it tough now I also feel sad for him, at least he realises he now needs help and has booked himself into a Rehab Clinic. The distance away from his kids would be torture for him.

                              I hope for his families sake he is seriously trying to get help and this is not just a last grasp effort from Fev and his manager to try and save his career.
                              It's better to die on our feet than live on our knees.

                                If he can rehab from the issues he has, the reason for doing it wouldn't matter...so long as he sticks with it.
