Fev up for trade

Re: Fev up for trade

Whilst i am not a Fev fan, it will get interesting, as Rocket did go after Fev pretty hard by all reports last year, having a meeting with him, but baulked at the $800,000 per year tag he put on himself.

Really? Is that definitely true? No smartass intended but I have reason to believe that Rocket absolutely loathes Fevola and has never really shown interest in him.

Or maybe that was just the 'neglecting if we didn't check him out' situation.

Re: Fev up for trade

One point that's being missed when it comes to Fev vs Hall is what club they actually want to play for. Hall only wants to play for the Bulldogs whereas Fev has apparently nominated Collingwood and St.Kilda. Fev has also bagged the Dogs out a few times and seems to have very little respect for our playing list.

Re: Fev up for trade

Just announced on SEN that Carlton have issued an announcment that they will look to seek an appropriate trade for Brendan Fevola, his preferances are the Saints or the Hawks. Holy crap, I didn't think the blues had the balls to follow through with this and I was expecting another slap on the wrist.

Saints or Hawthorn was not from Carlton but it was texted through by an annonymous source. I was listening at the time.

Making it up is not the same as BY ALL REPORTS.

ES is perfectly aware that this is simply not true.

Re: Fev up for trade

Geez, we are a bit harsh on posters simply mentioning trade rumours that have heard from journalists. It's not like they are just mentioning stuff from BigFooty (I know it can often be practically the same thing). As much as I appreciate it, not everyone has great sources. By all means inform a poster how they are misinformed, just don't see the need to be condescending/snide/insert superiority complex related adjective here.

Either am I but you must admit, the number of goals the guy kicks is huge. 89 this year, 99 last.

And they did not make the finals! Lockett did not play in a premiership neither did Ablett. Getting Fev will not guarantee that we will win a premiership. He is selfish and will want most forward entries to be directed to him or he will crack the sads. Then there is the potential issue of disharmony within the group.

Why the hell would i make i up? It was reported last year that Rocket spoke to Fev & his management team, and we baulked at the $800,000 he put on his head per season!

I am not in the position to know if that was fact, just as i stated, it was reported.

SHEESH!

I say we get Hall and Fev and if Fev is being a dickhead we have Hall who can enforce the "no dickhead policy".

Re: Fev up for trade

And what if the best offer they get is from Collingwood of Ben Reid and pick 14 with Carlton paying $250K of his contract?

Fev will almost certainly play for Carlton next year.

Re: Fev up for trade

We did look at Fevola (2 years ago) but we baulked at his asking price of $700k, so mighty_west is not far off the mark.

I have had that feeling all the way along, but feel a little less certain after the last few statements.

Fev to stay with Carlton is paying $6, sounds like pretty juicy odds to me!

Well, maybe off by $100,000 in that case....

I must have pulled the extra 100k out of my........
