Post the Fevola dramas, whether he remains or not, Blues membership numbers will continue to grow.

We might lose some members along the way, but we 'll bring a lot more in.

We stand for something.

I think London might have gone to bed. We'll have to wait until 6pm to get his answer.

Success

Premierships

Champions

A great looking jumper

A great team to follow

Even when we were on our knees our opposing supporters were glad it happened, because they know we stand for the above and that we'd be back sooner than later to haunt them again.

I know we're coming.
Everyone knows we're coming.

....they are more clear now

.......whereas before we allowed for inconsistent behaviour.

the measure of success as a result of the fevola decision (whether or not he is traded) = more memberships and more premierships.

I cant forecast when the next flag will come, although i dont think it will change too much if Fev goes. However, happy to take a punt and suggest that our memebership base will continue to grow.

There's more wank in threads like this than there was in Fev's general vicinity on Brownlow night. Any chance of our supporter's just going a little thinner on the drama queen bullshit? :roll:

No one in 2010...but when 2011 rolls around, the club will get Jezza down to the guernsey presentation evening and hand it out to a worthy recipient. Only fair that the greatest 25 in the clubs history do it.

We stand for stupidity, we are a laughing stock again and most supporters are drooling at the thought of having Fev while laughing at us for putting him up for trade.

Well I for one will not renew my membership this year, I'll be doing it next year, no seriously I wont be renewing my membership.

It's my little protest at trading Fev and I'm allowed to do it. I’ll still go to all the games but I'll just pay at the gate and let my profits go elsewhere for the year. I'll renew in 2011.

It really gets my goat that people are raving on about success and premierships and that this move will bring us success. Are you people flowering flowers or what?

I thought we had a window open to maybe win a flag in the next 2 - 4 years and Fev was a big part of that. He's probably got 4 years left in him. Without him, we wont win a flag, we wont be successful not in the next 2 - 4 years.

I reckon the AFL should pay Fev a retainer for the interest the game has had post season, not to mention the newspapers and talkback radio stations. They would love this as their sales and ratings respectively would be going through the roof.

Fev's a ratbag I know. He mucked up. He's done it plenty of times but that's the genius that is Fev. He genuinely loves the club and it's supporters. I loved watching him play for us.

I'll spew up seeing him in another jumper next year, I'll spew up each time he kicks a bag and I'll spew up when he kicks a bag against us.

To all you flogs that are hailing this as a great move by the club don't came into talking carlton next year and sook why we aren't doing well, I'll spew up!!!!

When the loss of one player is the reason we're not doing well, we may as well shut the place down. With all that gastric reflux that will afflict you next year, best you stay home close to the toilet

Don't give me that jazz about the loss of one player lol. We'd all be devastated if he did his knee in the last game of the year and he missed all next season wouldn't we? What if Judd missed the whole year, Reiwolt or Ablett at other clubs???

Ah we'll see next year people, we'll see. Happy to eat my words if I'm wrong. But I'm not often
wrong. I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken :razz:

If by drooling you in fact mean, all clubs linked have publicly declared no interest, then you are correct.
