I dont think there is any here who has not at some point in there life had to relieve themselves somewhere in public after being caught short - however 9 out of 10 of us would have the foresight to be more discrete than Fevola.

I dont have a problem with Fevola having one night out prior to the season starting - but 5 days out from a game is inexcusable - as it would be during the course of the season.

He was seen at the Casino on the weekend from the early hours of the morning to nearly mid-day playing cards - prior to heading out to the Grand Prix (not sure if he actually made it there).

To go on this sort of bender this close to Round 1 is inexcusable and obviously he was in no fit condition to make a decision as simple enough as to be able to find a discrete place to have a piss.

Its almost time for our leadership group to take a leaf from the "Steve Johnston" program. Not having Fevola for 6 weeks is not going to affect our Premiership chances this year and will give players like Edwards and Hartlett responsibility and an opportunity to show there wares as a go to player.

This course of action may affect our membership sales - however we have to give credit to our members and supporters who are intelligent enough to see the positive side to this course of action.

Fevola spent the off season being operated on to repair a body that has been decimated for your entertainment value ... and then people get on here and attack his character for a minor incident by today's society's standards (football profile aside). It is disppointing sure, but some people's reactions to this are ludicrous.

There is still a substantial core of Carlton supporters who have hated Fev since the day he stepped into Princes Park.

Nothing is going to change that, just look at this thread all the usual suspects saying exactly the same thing they say every time Fev does something stupid. You could set your clock by it!

I suspect that Fev is one of those player who is hated more by his own supporters than by opposition supporters.

I don't have any problem with him being out late on a Saturday night. He probably only had a lazy Sunday planned, like most of us, anyway.

Has there been any reports he had lots to drink, or that he was blind drunk or anything? I haven't read all the media but I don't reacall seeing any mention of him being off his face in what I have read.

It's a pretty minor indcident to get worked up about.

Is it fact he was urinating on windows or speculation at this stage?
