Fevola faces axe from Lions

Re: Fevola faces axe from Lions

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.
Cant put brains into a monument.

If he gets sacked they will most likely have to pay him out. Brisbane were more stupid than he here, because I doubt they put behaviour clauses on his contract. Brisbane have been looking excuses for a while now to out him without paying him.
If Lovett got paid out then Fev will too.

Brisbane would be making the case for the AFL to delist him for bringing the game into disrepute, the AFL would want this to be as simple as possible , their position would be to have the issue go quiet , let Brendan stay away from the Club to get some help and advice about what he might do after his career is finished and then before the season starts delist him . Brisbane would not have to pay him out of his contract but would most likely pay for medical, psychological, legal assistance etc.

Sounds like the similar case St.Kilda mounted against Lovett in which they settled out of court (paid out Lovett). Accusations of getting drunk no matter how many times and then arrested to me isn't the same as 2 accusations of rape.
Brisbane fault not Fevs for not putting behaviourial clauses in the contract.
Fev isn't that stupid to go quietly if not paid out. If he doesn't get help from the AFLPA than that group is useless not just for Fev but all its members.

For a small country, we certainly have our share of sporting misadventures.
There are 1.5 billion people in China and I think we compete pretty well when it comes to sports scandles.

Re: Fevola faces axe from Lions

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

He will have to be honest with himself and he has to be prepared to face the truth.
If it is a publicity stunt or a act to save his career he doesn't have a hope. he will breeze threw it with no commitment and the same ugly demons will eventually raise their heads.

China doesn't exactly have a comparable open media though - I dare say if they want to cover up a scandel it would be much easier.
We do tend to deify our sports stars more than almost any other country in the world.

They didn't, but they will consider the get out clause they were thinking of last time - AFL deregistration for "bringing ther game into disrepute". Anything the AFL can do to help the Lions, they will.

The Chinese Women's swim team, I'm sure Fev was trying to impersonate one of them a few Mad Monday's ago!

No doubt Brisbane will try (already have) and the afl will do anything in its power to help. If they succeed then it just confirms the aflpa are a load of crap. Afl have some responsibility for making fev who he is.

No They don't.

Would you allow the AFL to claim they they made Chris Grant the person that he is?

Bring it back to basic and its a simple hereditary or environment argument.

Did Chris Grant ever get drunk on New Years Eve, The Brownlow, or Mad Monday. I dare say he did.

He had everything going for him except he needed shoulder pads to be more convincing

Grant was so perfect he probably didn't.

Yeah they do. They (probably Carlton more so) allowed him to get away with so much that the line became a blur for him.

Not sure how Chris grant and fev are related here. A lot Fev's behaviour is a product of his Carlton days and a lack discipline on their behalf and therefore the afl.
