Fevola with that sir?

thejiggingsaint · Tue 04 Oct 2011 4:48pm

The "lets grab Fev NOW" threads seem a wee bit thin on the ground right now, so for old times sake...here we go again!

thejiggingsaint · Tue 04 Oct 2011 4:54pm

or would you prefer meatloaf?

Nikky Rixon · Tue 04 Oct 2011 5:25pm

If hes in shape get him , weve got troubles up forward one big fella gets jumped all over and when he gets a set shot oh dear it gets butchered, the other big fella doesnt like being in the forward line hed rather be a ruckman (i was told by an x ruck coach). A fit FEVOLA will bag 60 plus take the chance now .
Now you can bag the s*** out of me fellow sainters go for it

If we get Fev, I reckon Centrebet will drop us because we're not good for their image

Nikky Rixon · Tue 04 Oct 2011 5:27pm

Meatloafs performance was better than DIDAKS ,at least he tried

Maybe we could pay him in Centrebet credits?
He could be like the Juddy of Centrebet, 'gambling ambassador'
WIN/WIN*

I hope we can find some new sponsors and drop centrebet. Don't know about the rest of you members, but i am not that happy with them as a main sponsor.

But if we got Meatloaf, imagine how big they could make their logo on the back of his jumper

Ross who? · Wed 05 Oct 2011 10:42am

I would like us to leave a rookie spot for him until March. The same as Hawks did with Travis Tuck this year.
Offer 1 year minimum wage contract,with 1 chance only (Made very public). Then trains with us from December till March. If he doesn't slip up, worth a shot IMO.

I think this would leave a big window of time to gauge sponsors, supporters, etc.

This is provided we are reloading for another premiership tilt in the next Two years.

Can be win/win IMO

Mrs_Seaford_Saint · Wed 05 Oct 2011 11:21am

I might be against the grain here but a 1 year contract for peanuts with strict guidelines for public/personal conduct with an instant get out clause ( the club seems to be good with that) maybe.... just maybe we could snatch a flag and free up roo a little?

How many diplomatic ways can you say NO? !!

Dave Robicheaux · Wed 05 Oct 2011 11:40am

Y'all might wanna try sayin sumpin like "thank YEW, but no thi-ank YEW"
now y'all drive careful now y'hear?

thejiggingsaint · Wed 05 Oct 2011 12:00pm

WOW! I posted this during a fit of boredom as a bit of a spoof....can't believe some would want him

Just goes to show

BeauLeFatheur · Wed 05 Oct 2011 12:29pm

can't believe supporters wouldn't want fev in their side - we're in the business of winning premierships, not pleasing sponsors. if he slips up we cut him, no harm no foul.. one of the most talented footballers i've seen, could flourish with a third chance. we got torched by taking lovett and NOT cousins.. nothing to lose IMHO

IluvHarvey · Wed 05 Oct 2011 12:39pm

Pick him up for training purposes only. Get him to do a full preseason playing on Kosi one on one as a Full Back so he can get Kosi into form. Ala Fraser 2004 where he played on Fraser for a quarter and had 5 kicked on him!

Junction Oval · Wed 05 Oct 2011 2:13pm

No matter how good his footy smarts may be, the Club are paranoid about potentially more bad media and will not take the risk for fear of more Sponsors walking away.

gringo · Post: # 1156387Post **gringo** » Wed 05 Oct 2011 2:16pm

If they pick up Fev it will be because they believe we are still going for it. That will be a good sign in my opinion. I don't care either way and back Pelchen's ability to make the big calls to improve a list. When he got Burgoyne I thought he was too old, Gibson too short, Hale was always missing but all have been inspired choices and better than Peake, Polo and Gamble who have all been introduced onto our list in the same period. I'm not saying those guys are bad just comparitively not as good.

Dan Warna · Post: # 1156396Post **Dan Warna** » Wed 05 Oct 2011 2:35pm

Picking up F.ebola is a sign the club has given up and is trying desperate measures.

picking up F.ebola = just giving up.

more mileage in Ling IMO, better ethic and better player from a retired player like him than the virus.

Stillwaiting · Wed 05 Oct 2011 2:43pm

Picking up Fev would be embarrasing, and a we are not that desperate

gringo · Post: # 1156404Post **gringo** » Wed 05 Oct 2011 2:48pm

Imagine when they ask him to do the Footy show player review.

Dr Spaceman · Wed 05 Oct 2011 2:50pm

Give him one of the spare seats for Saturday night and see if he can get through that without having a drink
