i've said it before and I'll say it again. Lewis Johnstone was our next Fevola type. I really wish we had got him. Hopefully now that we don't have him, he ends up being a complete dud :lol:

Its unlikely we will find another Fev anytime soon, when he is gone we will have to work with what we have, like the Bulldogs & Geelong do.

I liked the articles in The Age on Friday, if you are going to get a power forward, make it a good one, no point in a rubbish Andrew McDougall type.

We are lucky to have someone like Fev, so we should take advantage of it.

Some people take that peace of information to mean we should deliberately sabotage any chances of it happening...such is the odd logic of some people. I hope your last sentence doesn't mean you're one of them. Midfield overkill still won't get us out the other side of a plundering Gold Coast and before that 'Good Fev' still has to show up.

Why the need to be so hyper-literal? The moral of the story is that we are down on decent tall forward options for the future and we need to do something about it.

I wish we selected one in the last few years but looking back we never really had the chance.
Plus the club probably had higher hopes for hartlett, edwards and cloke, was forced to trade kennedy AND our backup in Waite is gone for the year.

Fev, Waite and Eddy would terrorise backlines 3 v 3.

Hopefully when Warnock or Jacobs comes back, Kreuzer can spend more time in the forward line...which im pretty sure we'd do.
