Everytime swann has been asked about it he's never flat out said no way. Coz he knows with fev (granted it'd need to be a radically changed fev) we'd be close to winning a flag. Really thnk a lot of u forget how hard it is to win a flag and how hard it is to have a champion fwd. Roll the dice if it comes off we might have the glory. Don't worry about team morale, if he stuffs up he's out so doesn't affect the players. As I said it's a weak draft so maybe a late pick is worth the punt
Currently, at the draft coming up, our first pick is #22. So not much will come out of the draft. Without Waite in the team, our forward line is very susceptible. Waite doesn't play every game and our replacement to waite being out injured in the team is thornton, setanta up forward?. If henderson had come on quicker as a forward, l would be more inclined to say no to fevola. But, at this stage, we don't have a big window with judd in his prime to win a premiership and we dont have any gun forwards coming through in the ants. We won't get good draft picks till we tank again.
I will be surprised if hes not picked up now by a club, hes kicked 45 odd goals in 6 weeks. Seems to have himself on track, no drunken antics all year reported, working stuff out with his family and got a job with a radio station and kicking goals.
FFS - Clubs gave a drug addict at a club a 2nd chance, who was probably 10 times worse than Fevola getting pissed a couple times. Majority of Fevola's antics have been alcohol related. Sure some poor onfield attitudes, but if hes picked up its not hard to control a player if hes not paid much and has clauses in a contract and he has a point to prove now. Be remembered as AFL bogan/drunk or AFL legend or Carlton legend if we picked him up.
I think if Carlton are serious about winning a premiership they will entertain the idea with minimum wage, behavioral clauses and if hes not doing the team things, hes out on the street once and for all.
