For flower sake sign him for the next 2 years, and lets get on with something else. He's ours, we love him, end of story.

All these posts and the conclusion I've come to is that we have the best CEO in the competition. I'll leave it up to him to decide what we offer/don't offer the Fevolution.

Great article in todays Geelong Advertiser written by Crackers Keenan about Fev - 'Crackers witnesses a fevolution'. Essentially he says you could almost build a team around Fev and Judd and that in three years time the Blues army could be marching in September.

I hate going through this every year.

Fev is Carlton. He is an arrogent but talented bastard who 15 other clubs loath but wish they had.......... shit, he BELONGS in Navy Blue.

Sign him up for 5 years....... let him finish his career at the great club he started at.

Would hate to see him to a Jezza and piss off to StKilda for a couple of years.

May as well as ask how much currency does Judd or Murphy has? Jeez.

When the team reaches its potential Fev will be a 100 goal a year player. That means a premiership. Fev can be a goose off field, yes and on sometimes, but he can also be magical, inspiring and a genuis. Fact is, Fev loves the club and we love our sometime brat. Seeing him in another jumper just would not be right. If he wins a Norm Smith medal let it be in Blue.


I'm with you brother

you missed the best part of that quote:

I'm not saying you are going to win a premiership this year or next year, but maybe three years down the track we might see one of the most hated clubs in Australian football, the Blue army marching in September



Love it :-D

4 year deal, back ended with harsh penalties for pissing on windows.

Pretty much...

annoys me how Fev always seem to peak when contract negotiations begin.

But Fev kicks goals, alot of them. He is needed.

mate it always stuns me that you have kids helpline as your avatar and you have a link to the smith family in your signature ... yet you are always so negative and show such a lack of compassion for an individual who apparently did not come from the most privileged background and has acknowledged his demons and is actively trying to do something about them ...

You must ignore my positive posts ..they greatly outnumber my negative ones :wink:

re Fev, he's had lots of chances ..at lot more than most. I pray he stays clean, coz he's a superstar.

I get the feeling the coach wants this done and dusted sooner rather than later. Have faith in the people running the club guys, they know what they are doing. Gee it's been a while since we've been able to say that, hasn't it? :-D

Give him options

4 years, piss on one window, sacked
or
3 years, piss on two windows, sacked
or
2 years, piss on three windows, sacked
or
1 year rolling contract. For every 10 goals, piss on one window.

Don't know why we have another thread re this topic :? .

I see it as going either way. He could quite conceivably be FF in our 17th flag which will drive the young blokes on to more success after he retires to the brewry. On the other hand we could trade him for 2 top 10s which would ensure success for 10-15 years - how many flags in that period remains un-known but there'd be more than one I'd suspect.

We need a top defender if we're ever going to win the big one. They take time to develope, we have money in the cap to go hunting.........let the huntin' begin.

It wasn't meant to be a character assasination mate - i was only referring to your posts about Fev. Carry on ...
