I know his attitude sucks, and he is a cancer, blah blah blah. But he is the only decent player that we will be able to get without giving up a first 22 player.

I also believe that if he plays with the club he loves and comes back to Melbourne, his attitude may improve.

Lets face it, if the pain of last year couldn't motivate the players, what is this year going to do. I wasn't big for radical changes after the pain of last year, but I believe we need to do something big in this off season.

*Provided Brisbane pay part of his salary cap, so that we can fit him in.

Kosi to the ruck, Gardiner to retire (with the new interchange rules, we just can't carry Gardiner only playing 50% of gametime)

Don't think we need the risk...how'd Lovett work out for us?

How'd Gehrig work out for us? How'd Gardiner work out for us?

I understand its a big risk, but I think its one the Saints need to take.

Isn't there a very real possibility he could be deregistered?

Yes to deregistered

We needed both of them, and they worked out very well. We don't need Fev, and it wouldn't work out very well.

FFS people, we NEED PACE, first and foremost. We have more than one very capable potential KF. We show much more potential for KF's than midfielders. Has been that way for a while .Where has it got us?

Then, there is the favt Fev is a first class fukstick it seems, so..NO!

Please stop it.

I'm not advocating trading for him; but Fev has often mentioned the fact that he was a Saints supporter in his younger days......
..makes me wonder how he'd go playing for a club he actually cares for......

..and if our leadership group couldn't pull him into line, no-one could.

derby Street · Mon 04 Oct 2010 9:11pm

What are you people thinking ? Leave Fev where he is or ends up - anywhere but the Saints. Basically he has had the ars# from 2 clubs - please let the Saints not be the 3rd.
The G.F replay was bad but lets not go stupid. Clear heads.

not the dumbest idea going around. Would be more useful than Kozi in the forward line

Why get Judd as well seen that we will be 700k over the cap we may as well just break every rule in the book. Tonight we have had Hill, Motlop and Fev. At least people are consistant. 3 of the laziest players in the AFL. Surely there is a couple more.

Not sure about their work ethic, but certainly some of the most selfish players to have pulled on a jumper.

I'd chase a transvestite better than they would chase an opposition player. Not that there is anything wrong with that.

I'd take the punt if the conditions were right. Huge interview process and meetings required if we were to take the punt.

Let's face it; he'd be cheap; we're not going to win the flag without making a huge gamble anyway; Kosi isn't a forward and we're unlikely to pick anyone useful up in the draft to fit in our window.

Throw caution to the wind because we're running out of chances and I for one would prefer to finish last next year RATHER THAN EFFING SECOND and second guessing about what might have been. Take the punt.

I'd be thrilled to have Fev in the side. Seriously, put an 80 goal per year full forward in front of Riewoldt and the side instantly become so much more dangerous. If we could somehow snare Fev and a quality midfielder (Kerr?) then we'd be in with a serious shot.

B: Gwilt, Dawson, Miles
HB: Gram, Blake, Fisher
C: Dal Santo, Hayes, Kerr
HF: Schneider, Riewoldt, Gilbert
F: Milne, Fevola, Steven

Foll: Gardiner, Goddard, Montagna
Int: Jones, Ray, Koschitzke, Armitage

Emg: McEvoy, Geary, Clarke

Makes for a tough, skillful team with plenty of firepower and a bit of pace.

We took the safe option by drafting Colm Begley instead of Ben Cousins.
