We should have over an extra million dollars at the end of the year...how much of that is going to be sucked up with signing up players is anyones guess.. But at the end of the day we will have stemmed the salary cap bleeding more or less..
I dont think Fev will bleed us dry but he is doing the smart thing and having a squizz at what he is worth in the open market. anyone would do the same thing. He id sign up for less than he was offered last time and there is nothing to suggest he wont do the same again.
Fev is a Blue through and through.. I wouldnt be worried about Fev.
Of course its a cat and mouse game.
Fev doesnt want to bag too little and the club doesnt want to pay too much. ... It also seems to me from the outside that the length of the contract seems to be an issue.
Fev might be looking at something like say.. $2mill over 4 years... and the club might be offering $1.2 mill over 3...
thats how these things go. there will be a lot of toing and froing but at the end of the day Fev will remain a Carlton player snd he will sign or less than offered elsewhere.
Fev does have to think about his future and being in his middle age footy wise this contract might be the crux of his long term security .
He deserves 400k with bonuses up to 500/ 550k in my opinion.
I dont want it to be measured by goals cos ultimately that makes a player overly goal hungry and not balanced for team orientated goals. Maybe a mixture of goals/ games played.. assists and team performance as well as points for forward line leadership etc...
Fev is a huge marketing tool for the club and there is no way he will be sent packing to another club.
Fev is exciting to watch... we dont have too much like Fev at the club at this stage.
Im really happy with how hes going about his footy. Sure he will drop his head at times.. its in his nature.
The onus is on the club to get a midfield together to turn Fev into a goalkicking machine. In my opinion he is the best full forward on ability going around at the moment. Hes a match winner.. and one day it will click and he will kick a massive amount of goals. Record amount for a game...
Im expecting Fev in the next 2 years to be the numero uno FF of the competition.
Signing him up now will be a long term investment going forward. Denis is here for 4 id give Fev a four year contract and just Fev. He is pretty bulletproof injury wise. He and Stevens would be the only 2 on long term contracts IMO.
I reckon Fev is unbelievable.. and were lucky to have him.
Nothing pisses me off more than the bronx cheers and jeering he gets at times.We know he has a problem but he is working hard on it. H e wears his heart on his sleeve and just as his elation is huge when hes kicking them he gets down when he isnt.
Fev has kicked 11 in 4 games. Not his best 4 games by any stretch of the imagination but he is still averaging what he has averaged since Denis picked him up off the Brittain/Parkin scrap heap.
Go Fev you good thing!!!
