I have had about enough of this bloke, why wasn't he charged by the Police for beeing drunken & disorderly, sexual harrassment (against the ladies he apperently touched), he also offered $500 for free drinks to a waitress, there are witnesses and footage of most of what he did on the Brownlow night. Why haven't the Police asked for the evidence???
A 1.3% fine based on his salery, he stuffs up every year, he stuffs up off and on the field and he gets nothing. He is a disgrace and should have been sacked by Carlton or the AFL should have made him undergo counsiling and be regularly tested off and on the ground for alcohol abuse. He sould also be made to attend AA's!!
But hang on it's not Ben Cousins or the RFC.......... Carlton, the AFL and Fevola....... the angels of our great game!!!
-
Best medicine for Fev would be to show all the available footage to a national audience on the footy show.

I don't think so, why would we wan't to embarass the young ladies he was feeling up, or Fev's wife for that matter, the AFL need to take a stance here and they haven't and won't. Weak as p i s s!!
-
And is this the place where mountains are made out of molehills and rumours become fact.
The guy behaved like an absolute drunkard, but I challenge you to show me where it is even alleged by the media he was "feeling up" or "touching" the young ladies. He apparently gave one or two a peck on the cheek, but nothing more than that, nothing that is harassment or sexual assault..
I hate Fev and I hate Carlton but this rumour is getting out of control from the night it was, which was a yobbo off his t@s at the Brownlow and loving the attention and the free booze.

I agree with you TA but (there's always a but ;) ) as WAT says - it doesn't paint any different a picture to the message of anti-substance abuse than Ben Cousin's antics did a couple of years ago. Indeed, Fevola has probably got a longer history than Cousins did yet the AFL continually overlook that. And if anyone gives me the "booze isn't as bad as drugs line" then I will refute that in advance. I am staunchly anti-drugs and I like to drink yet in a public behaviour and community responsible way there is no difference - abuse is abuse - and for the AFL to tolerate more episodes of one from one individual than it did from another is just not right. Double standards at its best. >:(
-
I won't argue with your personal feelings on how alcohol should be seen, smokey, but you must also take into account general public standards and perceptions where illicit drugs are seen to be an enemy far beyond the realm of alcohol, mostly due to cultural history and political campaigns imo. So you shouldn't really be saying it's the AFL's sole double standard if you take that line when it's essentially an entire nation's double standard.
I agree that Fev should have handled himself far better but I think these accusations of what Fev did are getting way beyond reality and the result of the night was simply that he ended being a drunk bogan singing some karaoke, kissing another girl on the cheek, and dishing out a bit of what he thought was good hearted niggle towards his peers. Pure bogan stuff.

Except that Cousins was never done for taking drugs and his boorish public behaviour was no worse (and certainly less prevalent) than Fevola's. Indeed, Fevola has publicly disgraced himself with displays of substance abuse twice while at or on official AFL activities! Cousins never did but he got banned for bringing the game into disrepute. If Fevola's actions don't qualify for that then I'll go he. There are clear double standards from the AFL and it is not right.
-
Agree smokey, people downplay alcohol's impact on society far too much and blow drug use way out of proportion. They should be viewed the same, they are both drugs, both can be abused.
-
Like it or lump it, Fev gets peoples bums on seats becuase of what he is, both on and off the field.
One absolutely humungous publicity machine drawcard.

I would argue - no more than Cousins did. I'm not justifying the behaviour or correctness of either, just the double standards being applied by the AFL.

I agree, two absolutely huge drawcards to the game that the AFL will not act on unless they belive they absolutely have to.
With Cuz they thought they had to because it involved illegal drugs where with Fev because alcohol is not illegal in itself they will probably not act unless they feel they are backed into a corner.
Double standards? Absolutely

I don't know about that. Not doubt he's a moron as well but Fev doesn't mind putting others in headlocks when he's off his face. Just ask a barman in Ireland.

Okay, now what's worse. Fev peeed as a newt but not actually hurting anyone or Hurley out on the pee fare-evading and punching and kicking a taxi driver in the cojones?
I think the answer is clear. They've both made idiots out of themselves but Hurley has broke the law here, while Fev was being a complete idiot with too much to drink.
Just as an offside that came to mind just then, why is there not anything on Crown about the responsible serving of alcohol to Fev???? :shh Surely there is a perfect avenue for lobbyists to get on the media stage and take a shot at them for allowing Fev to get that wrecked.
-
All a bit precious isn't it?
See this behavior every week out on the town. Unfortunately generations change and this behavior is seen as an epidemic, because of the increased alcohol fuelled violence in the city over the past 12 months.
Yeah he is a goose and had to much to drink but where was Brett Ratten? Surely the coach at the table would have said "Brendon, your done. Cameras are everywhere have an hour spell mate, go get some water."
10 years ago it would have been "Funny Fev does it again" it's just the societies views on alchohol now that has brought this attention, and probably rightly so but lets not loose sleep over it, wont be the last footballer to get blind somewhere and look like a goose. At least he didn't drink and drive, at least he didn't clock someone at a nightclub, at least he didn't pee on the side of a police station... :banghead
-
I'll drag this back to my main point - I'm not arguing the morality of what he did - I've done worse myself. I'm arguing the double standards of the AFL.
Cousins didn't break any law except evading a booze bus.
Fevola didn't break any law except drunk and disorderly.
Cousins didn't muck up at or on any official AFL activity.
Fevola has twice mucked up at or on an official AFL activity.
Cousins gets sacked by his club (with the AFL/Big Brother sitting on the club's shoulder) after being threatened with the sack "if it happens again".
Fevola gets fined by his club (with the AFL/Big Brother denying any responsibility to take an interest) after being threatened with the sack "if it happens again".
Cousins gets suspended by the AFL for "bringing the game into disrepute" because of multiple instances of poor judgement.
Fevola hasn't even been asked to explain his actions by the AFL let alone account for any of them.
Fevola's rap sheet is just as long as Cousins'. Go figure.
-
Be careful in future do we want to see players banned from the game for being drunk?
Other players have done fair worse
Bock belting his Mrs. - Nothing.
I put that at the top and then daylight then drug taking then daylight then being drunk in public.
It doesn't change the fact the AFL was horribly hard on Cousins and still is but at the end of the day you can't argue that it's failed?

And if they applied one standard then they might well have many more successes.

I don't think anyone would want to see players banned for a year for getting drunk.
We'd have half our list out since 2000, maybe not a bad thing lol.

Actually glad you bought this up because this is one of my great "bugbears" with society today
Firstly, it has been mentioned a few times on talkback this week and the comment has been doesn't Crown need to take some repsonsibility..... and I find myself doing this :banghead :banghead
Seriously "allowing him to get wrecked" ... :banghead :banghead
Ultimately, this goose named Fev is responsible for his own actions and he should take responsibilty for what he did (again).
Yeah he was at Crown, yeah there was free grog but did he once say NO I've had enough? Nope this goose just kept taking the the grog... that's was his call, no-one elses.
This goose knows he has a problem with the grog and he chooses to conitune to get smashed, act like an idiot and then the sooks "I know I shouldn't do it" and I wont do it again but then does it again
These days it seems individuals are always looking for someone to blame rather than taking repsonsibility themselves. I for one am absolutely sick of it.
Perhaps we should also blame the AFL for hosting the event and serving beer... I mean when does it end.
Fevola is a moronic drunk. It is that simple
And if they applied one standard then they might well have many more successes.
Absolutely spot on
But seriously how can they apply one standard when they (the AFL) protect known drug takers with their stupid 3 strikes in out of competition testing?
I don't think anyone would want to see players banned for a year for getting drunk.

Probably not Pope but I think they need to get tough rather than these meaningless fines. But I certainly think in this case and this goose being a repeat offender he should be de-registered by the AFL for a period of time. They did it Modra all those years ago

Fevola is a moronic drunk. It is that simple
I agree that Fev is a grown man that should be able to drink and be wholly responsible without a third party getting shot, but that's irrelevant to the one narrow point I made. It was not intended to be suggested as an excuse for Fev, but more a slight on Crown for not doing as they would for 99% of other patrons.
My point WillyP, is that Responsible Serving of Alcohol IS part of the law and I'm surprised it hasn't been brought up on a bigger stage because it's entirely relevant to the way that Fev ended up that night drinking in the one establishment. They know that the man is a "goose", and that's why the legislation is there. To try to stop effwits who can't control their wants, or control the wants that have been eroded by alcohol, and think they should have more to be legally able refuse patrons further drinks. Fev is smack bang in that category.
Would it have made a difference if they did? Probably not. Someone else would have got him a beer most likely and the shenanigans would have continued, but it's still relevant. Would you get away with acting like that at Crown?? Highly doubt it. They would have you out the door on your behind.
Personally, I've been thankful in the past when I've had a bit too much and asked for another to keep the good times rolling and someone not in your head says, how about just a water and come back later for another? It's a kind, and gutsy, gesture by the person behind the bar who is impartial and not acting profitably for the bar but are doing it on their own accord as they've been taught. After that water you realise how wrote off you just might be. ;D Would Fev have been so understanding if someone said have a water instead of a beer? Maybe not, but I again make the point, it's better for it to be a law that it is promoted as the right thing to do than allowing open slather serving.
You might not agree with it at all, and I don't agree that the bar-staff who serve abusive or drunken patrons who want another drink should be held accountable for any consequences of that patrons night, but I do fully agree with the law that gives these places the responsibility to refuse patrons for the betterment of their establishment's atmosphere and the patron themselves, who may not realise it until the next day or at all, but it was for the best. Simple as that. (http://img15.imageshack.us/img15/1628/110f316449rzakisungm28j.jpg)

We were discussing this over the kitchen table this morning. We have someone in the family who has experienced alcoholism first hand living with an alcholic a long time ago. We came to the conclusion that Fev is one. Sure he can go without grog for 6 to 9 months while the footy season is on but that's not unusual for an alcoholic either or any addictive person for that matter. Just as Cuz will always be a drug addict even though he's been clean for 12 months, Fev like any alcoholic as soon as they have a drink even just one beer they simply cannot stop. Fev simply cannot drink ever again if he truly wants to control his behaviour.

You have it correct there WP, it seems no one wants to take responsiblity for their own actions any more.
-
he is a binge drinker as are a lot of footballers.
as for Fev he is just a dill, add the liquor he becomes an even bigger dill... :rollin
-
Fev is just a plan out and out dope once he 's on the grog.
Like Barry Hall is an out and out dope once oon the football feild.
If both consentrated on being real footballers they would have heaps of fans.
But both seem to like to throw their faces into the mud and come out looking the dopes of the AFL.

I agree Fev shouldn't drink again ever. There should be a horses for courses policy on measures taken. Some people like Fev are genuine alcoholics, some like the OX are genuine gamblers. There were rumours about Justin Peckett and alcohol too. But some guys like Hurley might be just young and stupid once, lets not drop a tonne of bricks on him for being young and foolish.
Cousins is a case in point he still has a serious problem and the remedy for Cousins will be partly of Ben's own making, part social pressure, part the authorities. Hopefully he stays of the dope for the rest of his life.

I understand that there is a law in place and why it is in place. I see that law being there to protect those who don't normally get smashed for the sake of it.
But part of my problem with the law as it stands is that it in part takes the onus off the gooses of this world to act responsibly - it seems to create an out clause whether it be intentional or not.
Whos fault is it that he had to get himself smashed in the first place...yet again. We are not talking about someone who has never done this before we are talking about a repeat offender who should have known better
Fev needs to be made accountable for his actions and take repsonsilbility for them. His sob story interview with HUN on Friday or whenever it was; was just absolute crap.
Interestingly, I read over the weekend that Crown is indeed being investigated over this whole Fev fiasco
I just believe there is a need to get the balance right and I just see balance these days so out of whack with the whole concept of individuals taking responsibilty for their actions and decisions. As a result as I said I find myself going like this :banghead so often because I was brought up to believe that people are responsible for their decisions, choices and ultimately their actions. Simple really :thumbsup
-
Fev will never have to take responsiblity for his actions while Carlton continue to tolerate his behaviour. They took out of his new contract the behaviourial clause that was in his old contract.

Blue forward Brendan Fevola's future decided today
Damian Barrett
Herald Sun September 28, 2009
BRENDAN Fevola's future at Carlton will be determined in a meeting with club president Stephen Kernahan today.
A week after his alcohol-fuelled Brownlow Medal night carnage, Fevola has been asked to address his behaviour and prove to Kernahan why he should be retained on the Blues' list.
Fevola's latest drunken incident has angered senior Carlton officials and players, particularly and most significantly captain Chris Judd.
Judd and some Carlton directors may join Kernahan in the Fevola meeting.

Fevola is a law to his own.
But as said here already he will never admit to him having a problem.
I see him as a good footballer but a lousy person.
To that if they delist him he deserves what he get's.
And if delisted I would like to see us chase him at a reduced price.
And let Hardwick run the bull crap out of him till he understands that it just isn't on.
-
There is no way we should chance Fevola, not even for free
He's too old, we need to grow our own

With you there man - and Carlton will NOT win a flag with Fev in the side, if I was them I would cut him lose. See what they could get in a trade and have another 1 and 1/2 options up forward insted of Fev, (If you get what I mean) ???

I thought the same thing initially Infamy but i have had second thoughts.
I was against us picking up Cousins but what a revelation he has turned out to be.
Maybe Jack and others could learn a lot from having him in the forward line, He would be looked up to similar to Cousins as long as he stayed off the drink, and not hard for the team to put a no drinking clause in his contract.
At very least it would take the pressure off Jack to be the only leading forward if Richo isnt there and if he is it leaves Jack with the third best defender.

There's a great deal of difference between Ben and Fev.
Ben has acknowledged he has a problem.
Ben is more intelligent.
Ben realised what he had lost and changed his ways.
Ben had support.
Ben's current Club have picked up the ball and provided the environment he needs.
Carltank won't cut Fev loose, they don't have the bottle.

I like the last part of the above statemant that Carlton don't have the bottle.
Would that be the bottle of grog Fev needs to continue :whistle :lol?

Bla bla, bla, bla.... This is a typical response form the Blues on behalf of the AFL and it will lead to nothing more than a slap on the wrist as it always has with Fev.
It's a mockery he should be sacked!!!
-
I wonder how close Fev was to taking a swing at Hird if James didn't play it cool.
Dunno about that, he doesn't appear to be a violent drunk, just a complete moron
I reckon he looks the type that would snap at any moment.

I agree Fev shouldn't drink again ever.

Carlton forward Brendan Fevola giving up alcohol
April 02, 2008 11:00am
BRENDAN Fevola has imposed a career-long alcohol ban on himself :lol in a bid to stabilise his life and future at Carlton.
A day after Wayne Carey's tell-all about his drug and alcohol abuse, it has been revealed Fevola has started professional counselling to deal with his highly-publicised alcohol issues.
He is also addressing, to a lesser extent, a gambling "hobby".
In a major step forward, Fevola has told confidantes he will not drink throughout the football season and not join end-of-season football trips.
It means, at 27, the $500,000-a-season forward is likely to be off alcohol for the next five years. :lol :lol :lol
Blues chief executive Greg Swann yesterday said he was aware of Fevola's decision to ban the demon drink.
"It's what Brendan has told people but the proof will be in the pudding. The proof will be in his actions" Swann said.
......
After his latest indiscretion - being caught urinating on a Prahran bar window at 4am on March 16 - the Blues warned Fevola that another alcohol-related incident would mean instant dismissal.

According to SEN who have people sniffing around there's no news or action as yet. They don't even know where the meeting will take place.
Most likely garbage but a rumour doing the rounds on SEN is that Fev will head to Sydney for the Swans first pick plus Ryan O'Keefe.
-
He has only himself to blame if he gets hit with the pointy end. :banghead :wallywink
-
Ratten when just interviewed by SEN didn't quash any talk of Fev's future being up in the air. The meeting is this arvo.

Fevola won't be attending tonight's Carlton B&F.
The decision on his future postponed for a couple of days.

Sorry but still no
Cousins cost us nothing, Fevola will cost picks and high picks
Cousins came to the club on almost a base salary, Fev would be paid $500k+ per year
Cousins was a premiership captain and is the best leader at the club, Fevola is an idiot
Fevola would also take the place of a young forward and we would become just as predictable as when we kick to Richo, I'd rather we play Post or Vickery up forward full time.

Carlton Media Statement
Following a number of media reports this is to confirm the Carlton Football Club will not be meeting with Brendan Fevola today.
Brendan Fevola contacted the Club today to say he would prefer not to attend the 2009 John Nicholls Medal (Carlton Best & Fairest) this evening. As this is an important function for the Carlton Football Club, with 1500 guests attending, the Club has accepted his decision to ensure there is no distraction from the John Nicholls Medal function.

1st - PSD only
2nd - Schulz & Hughes as player only trade (plus McMahon if we can't get anything for him)
We don't need him and SHOULDN'T want him, I'd only take him if he was free or helped get rid of some contracted list cloggers.
Would hope we can still get picks for Tuck & Brown.

Yep that would be the limit for me too, I would have him under those conditions but his contract would have to have certain clauses like; NO DRINKING AT PUBLIC/PRIVATE FUNCTIONS!!!!

Reckon the doggies might be interested in this. At the very least can turn around and tell Sydney they better come to the table with a better deal than 31 for Barry Hall coz they will chase Fev instead.

Right he's agreed in principle with the Dogs but they still have to do the deal with Sydney. At the very least Fev's availability gives them something to leverage a better deal out of the Swans.

Hasn't been agreed to by all. He said there is a terms of agreement in place which means the Bulldogs have accepted Barry's contract demands. The Bulldogs haven't offered anything up for a trade that the Swans will accept just yet.

Storm in a teacup for mine, Carlton are the best at smoke screens, nothing will happen, he will stay at the Blues end of story.
-
Yep the Blues will do as they will always do with him. They'll talk about seriously dealing with Fev but nothing major will happen. At worst he might be suspended for a couple of games. The way the audience at their B&F was carrying on when Fev's name was even just mentioned he couldn't do anything wrong in their eyes. If the word I've heard from Carlton fans is similar to what Jack said he can't post for legal reasons then no wonder teammates are peeed off with Fev after the Brownlow.
As for the doggies they couldn't afford his $750k a year salary without offloading more high profile players. Hall is a cheaper option both in terms of $$$ and picks. Only Sydney could afford him with all the retirements they have had. When we knocked back the thought of trading for Fev in 2005 it was over his salary and pick 8 (which ended up being JON).

Carlton ready to trade Fevola
Jake Niall and Martin Boulton | September 29, 2009
CARLTON is likely to put Coleman medallist Brendan Fevola on the trading block, after key officials and the club board met yesterday to discuss how to deal with the wayward spearhead.
Carlton’s senior officials and most of the board held a lengthy meeting on the Fevola issue yesterday, with sources last night suggesting that the Blues would almost certainly test the market — again — and see what offers were forthcoming for the 2009 Coleman medallist, who did not attend last night’s club best and fairest at his own request.
Carlton president Stephen Kernahan, when asked if Fevola had been sacked or put up for trade, said: ‘‘No, hell no, [but] anything could happen, I’ll let you know in a few days.’’

No surprise if Fev has. Did Gibbs buy him a one-way ticket.

Could be a possibility if brother Cameron is still around next year on Carlton's list. Eddie on MMM said he'd take Fev in a heartbeat and having to face Malthouse and Buckley would sort out his behaviourial problems (sure Eddie :whistle ). All a question of finances and what Carlton want in exchange. He would need to talk to his people at Collingwood.

me thinks he must have done something crazy terrible if everything is being whispered instead of printed. I wonder why he is being protected by the media? They wrote up and included illustrated diagrams when benny apparently avoided a booze bus, Fev unleashes on the night of nights and everyone is unsure about the exact nature of what happened...

He'd be out the door already if he did a Carey or committed sexual assault. He's been accused of sexual harrassment instead while he was a drunken tool as stated in today's Herald-Sun.

i believe they should not, because he can play and is their second best player.

Whilst he is there they wont win a flag however at a club like Collingwood he could change, just look at Didak and Shaw this year.
Best he stays there because i couldnt handle it, if he helps the Pies to a Flag.

Looks like the worse that will happen to Fev is he'll miss the early rounds of 2010. No other club wants him.
Brendan Fevola too expensive and too much trouble
Damian Barrett From: Herald Sun September 30, 2009
CARLTON may have no choice but to enter 2010 with Brendan Fevola on its list, with opposition clubs showing little or no interest in the controversial full-forward.
The Blues yesterday continued to hawk Fevola in preparation for next week's official AFL trade period, but they are discovering their problems with the controversial forward are scaring off rival clubs.

Actually, it would be great if Carlton did suspend him for the first few weeks of the season. It would be a great way for the Tigers to kick off 2010, to face the Blues with no Judd and no Fevola.

Carlton to seek Fevola trade
3:36 PM Wed 30 September, 2009
The Carlton Football Club has advised Brendan Fevola and his management that it will be working to secure a trade that will see Brendan join another club during next week's AFL Exchange Period.
The Club will make no further comment on the discussions on the future of Brendan Fevola or any other players until the Exchange Period next week and a final decision is made on his future.

It still has to go through first
Eddiewood have a history of not offering anything reasonable for a trade
Don't be surprised if Carlton don't like anything offered for him and keep him. They must know that a lack of interest/trade offers from other clubs would be a big wake up call to Fev, just like being overlooked by all clubs made Ben Cousins wake up to himself.
-
who?
:)
Pies & St Kilda
But who really cares ;D
-
Could be the biggest smokescreen Carlton has ever come up with. Unless someone will be prepared to give up a first rounder and players then Fev won't be going anywhere. Carlton can then say we tried but what can we do the right deal never came. People remember the fact that he wasn't traded rather than Carlton not imposing a suspension on him for round 1. He then plays and the status quo remains.
Collingwood nobody ends up there Collingwood overestimate their players and hence they don't want to be seen as someone who backed off or down and hence no deals can be done. After all look at the way they describe their players. What is a traditional Collingwood six footer? Cloke for Fevola would be a win for the Pies.
St Kilda would work out better for Carlton especially since their forward line failed on GF day and the Saints may be panicked into making a couple of rash decisions to cover that weakness. Could be the end for Kosi at Moorabin.
-
You are spot on Tucker
Fev is contracted so therefore:
1/ he can veto any trade not to his liking
2/ Carlton have to find a club willing to tak eon his contract - cannot see that happening, Carlton will have to pay some of it
3/ Carlton will want a 1st rounder at a minimum..... scarce as hens teeth in 2009
-
Be very hard to do a deal.
The only thing is Carlton have shown their hand publicly. They have said they want to get rid of him. So if Fev wants to go to St Kilda and they offer Carlton Maguire + 2nd round pick, who are Carlton to say - "give us your first rounder"?
Carlton wont want to lose out on this, but if there are other players who have had a gutful, it could destabilise them and ruin their 2010 season.
-
28 year old on the edge & fork out heaps or a potential top 10er or so for your club for 13+ years and a top liner - Pull the other one Blooz.
LOL Real hard at Cloke for Fev - Carltank would lose on that one - Problem is Skunks would gain ....
Fev will end up walking for next to nothing or will stay at the Carlsmokscreentankers .....
What about Brown Mcmahon Huhges for Fev and they pay 2-300 of his contract would be more realistic.
And before I get pounced on no I dont want that ............ hmmm may consider it though :shh
-

I agree with the line of thought that this is one large scare tactic by Carlton - an attempt to slap Fev around the head and get him to wake up to himself. But.....you also have to consider the attitude of the rest of the playing list. This time it might just not be all about Fev. Maybe Judd and others that were embarrassed/harrassed on Brownlow night have finally had enough and don't intend welcoming him back. Interesting times ahead for the team "thats coming".

Brendan Fevola camp expects nibbles from at least four clubs
* Damian Barrett
* From: Herald Sun
* October 01, 2009
Fevola's management have been telling football people that St Kilda, Brisbane Lions, Sydney and Collingwood were prospective bidders.
Combined with his off-field problems, Fevola has a contract that will reap him at least $1.4 million in the next two seasons and will make negotiations extremely difficult for all, and impossible for some.
No club contacted by the Herald Sun would publicly comment on Fevola.

Probably end up a good story at one of those clubs..... just not at ours thanks.
-
Told ya all the other day Fevola got the ass & he was told not to attend the B&F as his future at Carlton was finished & he could look for another club. ;D
-
CARLTON is willing to pay a portion of Brendan Fevola's salary to help facilitate a trade to another club, but only if the Blues receive what they believe is a decent return for the 2009 Coleman medallist.

Carlton deserve Fevola and all the angst and negative publicity he is bringing them. It appears Carlton have been sooooo smart in removing Fevola's "do it again and you're out" clause! I truly hope no-one wants him and they are left to pay the $1.4m contract for a player that is causing embarrassment and disharmony to the club and that they can do nothing about. Couldn't be more fitting if you ask me. If no-one does want/take him then it wouldn't surprise me to see them go to Adolph's back door and ask the AFL to suspend/de-register him like they did Cousins, giving Carlton a huge get out of jail card.
-
IMO its Sydney or no one for Fevola.
The Blues will never trade with Collingwood and allow them a shot at a flag. Not a chance in hell and not for a hack like Travis Cloke.
this is shaping up to be the biggest smokescreen for a lying pathetic club like Carlton

Brisbane has emerged as a frontrunner for Brendan Fevola. For the right deal, the Blues might be prepared to pay half his salary, meaning rivals such as Brisbane could land Fevola for $750,000 over the next two seasons. The Lions could offer up Victorian forward Daniel Bradshaw and a draft pick in an attempt to get a deal done.

Just a question and a thought.
Fevola has been at Carlton for 10 years so does that qualify Carlton to put him on the veterans list therefore half his salary only goes on to the salary cap. Knowing Carlcheatscumliesteal this could be another dodgy part of a deal.

The Carlscum wont be able to get away with that because he is not on the Blooze primary list (cos he will be listed at Brisbane) and therefore does not qualify for 10 year veteran status.
Therefore all attributed payment goes against Blooze salary cap.

CARLTON has kept the door ajar for wayward full-forward Brendan Fevola if it can't find a suitable trade when trade week kicks off tomorrow.
Most clubs have shied away from a trade for Fevola, believing the compensation needed to trade for the All-Australian forward is far too high, with the Blues requesting a first or second round draft pick along with a rising player.
Blues football manager Stephen Icke told The Sunday Age yesterday that Fevola could still remain a Blue next season.

Is it my anti Collingwood rhetoric or just me but for someone who has captained a side to a 12 goal loss in a Prelim and has one 1 GF in 50 years plus has a player who has a curfew stipulated in his contract and players whose raps sheets are as long as my arm Nick Maxwell does talk alot of poo. Can see alot of teams just sticking it to him. He should just keep his mouth shut. Yep Cloke is coming along nicely dishing off from 30 metres out from one of his four marks per game and so is Reid. Davis is an All Australian who gathers on avg 11 possessions in finals and Anthony will be kicking winning goals every week. The forward line well is as deep as an ocean at the Lexus Centre and they sacked Strauchnie. :lol :rollin :lol

AFL: Ok guys Fev's been a naughty little boy hasn't he??? What should we do??
Blues: How about we blow it out of the water, lie about trading him, put a hefty price on his head so no one will touch him, tell all clubs behind the scenes that he has a heap of baggage, lie to the public and then we can move on with him in the team.
AFL: I am going for dinner now, sounds good!!! :banghead

Sources confirmed last night that Carlton did not wish to trade Fevola to either Collingwood or Essendon - the latter has never been a consideration - unless the deal was outstanding.
While the Blues have placed Fevola on the trading block and are willing to pay some of the full-forward's hefty contract to consumate a trade, the prospect of a backlash from supporters has seen them inform Fevola's management that a trade to Collingwood is unlikely.

Him staying at Carlton might just be best for everyone. If Judd, Gibbs and other players have had enough it might end up a nice little disruption for them.
On the other hand he would definitely fill a void at Collingwood and they would be more potent, especially in September.
-
this is great news.
what i did not want to see is Fev at the Pies. I want the Pies to continue looking like fools for "not being able to land a big fish"
let him stay at Carlton please it would make them look more stupid than they already are.

BRENDAN Fevola's Brownlow night of shame has been revealed as a 13-hour bender that began on Crown's VIP blackjack tables with skipper Chris Judd.
http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/details-of-brendan-fevolas-brownlow-bender-at-crown-revealed/story-e6frf7jo-1225784036569
CARLTON could be forced to keep Nick Stevens on its list next year, even though the midfielder has played his last AFL game.
He has not officially announced his retirement because the Blues are awaiting an answer from the AFL over a request to exclude his contract payout - believed to be about $400,000 - from their 2010 salary cap and instead have it form part of their 2009 injury allowance.
The worst-case scenario for Carlton would mean it would have to keep Stevens on its long-term injury list and lose $400,000 from its 2010 total player payments.
The AFL is believed to be sympathetic to the unusual situation, but is yet to respond.

SEN rumour at the moment is that Bradshaw has failed his medical.
Come on down Fev, goodbye pick 44 and Cleve to Carlton!! :rollin
-
SEN now saying Fev and Bradshaw are happy to move and it's now down to Rischitelli agreeing to go.
-
SEN - Short for SENsationalists. They don't have a clue whats going on, their making it up as their going along lmao.

Rischitelli's manager
one Ricky Olrenshaw (sp?) claimed this morning on SEN that it was quite possible his client might not wont to go to Carlton and that he may chose to stay in Brisbane and back his own ability and honour his contract
I have to say Ricky is starting the sound like the other player manager nmed Ricky who is a pain in the backside.... First his carry on about Brian Lake and now this :banghead
Ch7 news (remember Ricky O is also employed by Ch7 as the worst boundary rider in history ::)) said tonight that Rischitelli was not keen on going to Carlton
-
If I were Carltank, I would have looked at Henderson rather than Bradshaw.

Sydney still a chance to pick up Fev, will offer a player and drfat pick tomorrow. ;)

Would you lay off the smack....... :whistle :thumbsup. They (they Blue wankers) are pricing him out of the market on purpose. If he does not go it was all a big scam so don't be too surprised if he stays a blue girl.

I think Brisbane will play Bradshaw in defense now perhaps using him as a utility player depending on match-ups. Brisbane now have the luxury of moving him forward or back. All of a sudden Brisbane could be a real contender..... :shh
Stripes
-
Or Bradshaw could be traded to Sydney? The Swans have two first rounders to go after a big fish.

That would be the better long term option but maybe with all these trades they are thinking short term. :o

Blues have screwed this deal up. It's clear vossy was desperate to get fev so why did they offload their second pick. Ratts played his hand like a fool. Bottom 8 next year for the blues is a certainty. This has rattled them big time. Cash on the tiges for round 1..you betcha

Brisbane has offered Fev $2 million over 3 years

Now Fev's been traded to Brisbane the media are reporting what happened on Brownlow night.
http://www.3aw.com.au/displayPopUpPlayerAction.action?&url=http://media.mytalk.com.au/3AW/AUDIO/071009_Fevolastory.wma (http://www.3aw.com.au/displayPopUpPlayerAction.action?&url=http://media.mytalk.com.au/3AW/AUDIO/071009_Fevolastory.wma)
The female Herald-Sun journo won't come forward and make a complaint because she doesn't want to be publicly named and lose her privacy. If a complaint were to be made then the AFL will go to town on Fev but the AFL can't act unless there's an official complaint.
-
This was leaked this morning before the trade was done. Thought it was crap but interesting to see where it goes.

Brendan Fevola accused of sexually assaulting female Herald Sun journalist at the Brownlow Medal count
* Fiona Hudson
* From: Herald Sun
* October 09, 2009 3:25PM
AFL bosses say they are taking seriously allegations new Brisbane Lions forward Brendan Fevola sexually assaulted a Herald Sun journalist on Brownlow Medal night.
League operations manager Adrian Anderson said the journalist had not made an official complaint but the AFL would act quickly if she did.
“We have provided support and indicated we are ready willing and able to act as soon as she would like to talk to us,'' Mr Anderson said.
“We have got a respect and responsibility policy that has been in place now for five years now and any contraventions of that policy will be viewed very seriously by the AFL.
“We have spoken to the employer of the woman involved, we have provided her support and access to counselling and we have also made it clear that the AFL is ready to act on any breach of what we expect of our players to behave towards woman.''
Fevola - whose trade deal went through just hours ago - is alleged to have assaulted the journalist during a boozy rampage at Crown Casino.
3AW radio presenter Neil Mitchell today aired details of the September 21 assault by the 2009 Coleman medallist.
Mitchell reported several sources had told him Fevola harassed and intimidated the Herald Sun reporter on Brownlow night.
"I have been told by several sources that he followed her (to) the toilets at Crown [and] physically intimidated her,” Mitchell said.
"One of the reports says … (he was) sort of grabbing at her.
"It was certainly of a sexual nature."
Mitchell said both the Carlton Football Club and the AFL were aware of the allegations, but the journalist in question had not filed an official complaint to the police or the league.
A Victorian rumour website has also posted details of Fevola's alleged indiscretions.
Herald & Weekly Times editor in chief Phil Gardner today said the Herald Sun’s primary concern was for the health and wellbeing of the journalist.
“Our reporter was attending the Brownlow as a representative of the Herald Sun in a working capacity,” he said.
“In accordance with our strong workplace policies and practices, the Herald Sun has provided a wide range of support and services to our reporter. And we will continue to provide this support.
“Herald Sun management has kept the AFL and other relevant parties regularly updated since the incident.”
Fevola's antics on Brownlow night triggered Carlton’s shock decision to offer him up for trade.
In a statement today, Blues president Stephen Kernahan said he hoped Fevola’s move to Brisbane would provide an opportunity for him to continue his career in a new environment.

l dont care how much rubbish comes out about this bloke
It all boils down to the AFL & Crown Casino who was pouring the booze into a drunk Fevola & the security for which it failed to do its job which again goes back onto the Crown Casino.
Fevola was also let into venues after the Brownlow & we have heard so much about the laws of not serving drunken patrons.
They should be held responsible for how Fevola acted on that night as they know he gets out of control when drinking.
We all seen what he was doing at the brownlow on the tables & he should have been removed then being a black tie function.
As the saying goes " Different Rules for Different Fools.
Money is the power of all evil & when you got pockets load they will serve you till the cows come home
-
And is this the place where mountains are made out of molehills and rumours become fact.
The guy behaved like an absolute drunkard, but I challenge you to show me where it is even alleged by the media he was "feeling up" or "touching" the young ladies. He apparently gave one or two a peck on the cheek, but nothing more than that, nothing that is harassment or sexual assault..
I hate Fev and I hate Carlton but this rumour is getting out of control from the night it was, which was a yobbo off his t@s at the Brownlow and loving the attention and the free booze.
i.e. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OWpLKeRYdsk

LOL Fev holding his press conference with Voss at Wet & Wild :wallywink
-
Voss saying that he had the right culture at the club, LOL
Ryan Hooper ring a bell Michael, LOL
Its amazing how all the coaches come out with ""spin "" these days.
Ross Lyon, he is a beauty, wants an "'arm and a leg "' for Ball, but reality is that he is player no 22-25, Cant have your cake and eat it to Ross.
Reckon Knighta will be feeling a bit of a "squeeze"" at Windy Hill, Gets rid of Lloyd and replaces him with Williams, who he wants to play out of the goal square. LOL ::) ::) ::) ::) ::) ::)
Give credit to our new coach though, he hasnt tried to talk up the currency of our players he has tried to get rid of, hard to talk someone up from Zero currency to something. ::)
Would think the Tuck issue will be a reality check for club and player,

Carlton are turning on Fev now that he is gone.
"Really we should have done it a long time ago." Carlton powerbroker Bruce Mathieson said.
"A bloke like that has no respect for anyone, for his mates or for his club.
"I don't think blokes like that ever wake up. He's got so much talent but after he finishes football he's unemployable. Who would want to do business with him?"

AFL would have 'no hesitation' suspending Fev
By Katrina Gill | Fri 16 October, 2009
AFL FOOTBALL operations manager Adrian Anderson says the League is ready, willing and able to take action against new Brisbane Lions’ recruit Brendan Fevola should the woman at the centre of an alleged sexual assault choose to come forward.

l'm sure Fevola would use in his defence that the AFL & Crown casino just keeped serving him ;D hence why they were prosecuted & fined :rollin
Demetriou should be sweeping this under the carpet :lol

This proves how gutless the leaugue actually is
Take the alleged incident with the female journalist out of the equation
This idiot Fevola was at an officially convened meeting of the AFL.
The Brownlow is an official meeting.
He behaved in a disgusting manner during the meeting. Surely he should face suspension for bringing the game into disrepute for his behaviour during the sanctioned meeting.. THE AFL's BLOODY MEETING for crying out loud.... they don't need the "assistance" of a 3rd party for that
Gutless morons = AFL

Willy P, technically a meeting in reality a dinner or an end of year catch up/pee up. Have you ever been to a brownlow?
I'm not defending fev but he is far from the lone ranger of excess and idiocy at a brownlow medal count

Understand all that Y&B but the AFL are saying they will do something if the lady in question comes forward
All I am saying is that stance by Adrian A and the AFL is a major cop out. If they really wanted to do something they could but they are chosing not too becuase they are gutless
-
And for just another example of the double standards read the post below. If Cousins had done this it would be the end of his career - I'm still waiting for someone, anyone, to explain the difference in Cousin's behaviour to Fevola's and justify why Cousins was deregistered for a year yet Fevola was/is not touched. Remember the key point here - official AFL function (nay, showpiece) attended by a large media contingent and televised around the country.
Hi all,
Had dinner last night with a mate who is an AFL umpire and he told me some funny stories about Tucky.
He said that he lives in his own world on the footy field - always talking to himself, yelling at himself or telling himself he's going ok depending on how the game is going. He said that his team mates are always screaming at him as he never plays to plan and that he has a verbal argument with a team mate in most games he has umpired. He said Tucky commentates on his own game and can be heard saying 'Good Kick Tucky' and things like that - good and bad.
.....NB: EDITED = for an explanation of why this post has been edited see below
PS - umpire is heading to New York for the New York Marathon and has a mate already there training and he has met up with Richo and Nathan Brown. Richo is running in the US and is keen to play on. Brown is too, but evidently no one wants him. He said he will probably retire and get into his clothing business. Richo is very fit evidently.

Edited: Unfortunately due to the nature of some of the allegations made we have had to edited this post.
Without trying to be heavy handed please remember that all allegations about what Fevola did whether true or not are at this stage still heresay and gossip and if any of it isn't true it could get OER into trouble if these allegations are posted here.
Whether they appear on other sites is not our concern - our priority has always been and continues to be OER
Cheers

I hope your not holding your breath on this smokey, cause it aint gunna happen. These double standards just cannot be justified. In the same way that Cousins was de-registered, yet has never failed a drug test, while others have reportedly failed drug tests, and in some cases twice, without even being named, let alone any disciplinary action taken. The cynic in me would say these players are probably Carlton or Sydney scum.
He said that his team mates are always screaming at him as he never plays to plan and that he has a verbal argument with a team mate in most games he has umpired
If this is correct, then it sheds a bit of light on why Tuck fell out of favour. Could never work that out - sure his disposal at times lets him down, but he has a few partners in that crime, most of whom don't go and get the hard ball like he does.

Edited: see above for explanation
So it was the beef curtains. Think ox deserves credit for breaking this story with such specific detail.

The AFL needed to be seen to be tough on (illegal) drugs at that time. Whereas drinking until your an off your face imbecile at the Brownlow and especially at the afterparty has almost been a footy rite of passage to boast about over the years. Street Talk at the Brownlow lives off seeing footballers "under the weather". Society's double standards.

Hear what you're saying MT but can't buy it. Cousins never got done for drugs but copped 12 months for "bringing the game into disrepute". Fevola has publicy crapped in the face of the game time and time again and even after the latest and most public embarrassment Demetriou still finds he has no case to answer to the league, only the club. Not disagreeing about society's double standards but Fevola is fair and square a shining example of the AFL's double standards.

I'm not agreeing with it either but that's the only reason I can think of for the differing treatment of Fev and Cuz. Cuz's drug habit was also having an affect on his footy life during the season plus the run ins with the cops hence he was sacked by the Eagles. Fev seems to still have sympathizers because his moronic behaviour occurs in the off-season while under the influence of (legal) alcohol. So everyone will call him a tool until the footy starts again and he gets off the booze. The media will drool over his next bag of goals and all will be forgotten and forgiven until Mad Monday next year when he gets back on the booze, stuffs up once more and we go through all this again groundhog day style. Being now in up Brisbane in a non-traditional AFL marketplace will also make the AFL reluctant to deregister Fev if he's bringing the crowds through the gates. Money talks.

Thats what I cant understand, do they have a different salary cap to all others. They will still have to accommodate Judd, Murphy, Gibbs, Kruz, Waite and many more that will come along. How they will be more cashed up under the salary cap is beyond me??

Well they don't have Fev on his backended contract or Nick Stevens either, two pretty big salaries to lose from the TPP
I'm sure with pay rises for their young stars that amount will shrink, if they are throwing around cash to land star players next year then they run the risk of not giving their own players the pay they deserve and will find them walking out on the club

Looks like it'll be the Blues with the jungle drums drumming on and off-field next year :pray.....
OUSTED Blues president and aspiring TV host John Elliott is excited over his on-screen prospects for 2010, but holds fears for his beloved Blues in the wake of the Fev exit.
Elliott, popular with Channel 31 viewers, is disappointed Carlton sent spearhead Brendan Fevola packing for such a "meagre return'' and told us he had already expressed his concern to some leaders of the club.
"I told them that if the Blues don't do as well or better than they did this year, there could be unrest,'' Elliott said in shock-jock style.

Elliot and Carlton deserve each other. The fact that Elliot is not a Richmond supporter shows that God does not hate RFC

Fevola issue exposes AFL's sheer hypocrisy
Caroline Wilson | November 8, 2009
The gifted but wayward forward is the league's whipping boy - and key promotional tool.
THE unfinished business that exists between Brendan Fevola and the AFL is starting to reek of hypocrisy.

Good article by Caro!! It is business though and they are always going to seek the biggest profit margins. The same was done by the TV networks building up our West Coast games this year. Everyone loves a bit of theatre being involved in a game.
Having said that, profiting of an alledged sexual assualt doesn't sit well with my moral compass.

Fev has the known intellect of a 10 year old for taking and sending out the photo to every tom, idiot and harry in the first place, but you've got to love the rep. of Woman's Day last night saying it was okay for them to publish the Bingle photo because it was already doing the rounds in footy and cricket circles. Then NINE news dob in Dylan Howard as the one who gave the photo to Woman's Day. Apparently Howard had a falling out with Hutchy who of course works for NINE. Class acts all round ::).
-
For what it's worth, a couple of posters on BF reckon these pics are a couple of years old.
Although Fev may have took the initial pic, he only needs to have sent it to one person and that person could have been responsible for sending to a wider audience. Doesnt excuse fev for doing that in the first place but no knows for sure his intent was for it to go to as many people as possible

Mike last night on 3aw said the pic had been around for 3 years apparently. He said something along the lines of someone else (not Fev) must be trying to embarrass Bingle by bringing up the photo now. Somehow linked to some public dispute between Bingle and Michael Clarke allegedly at the cricket here before the Aussies headed over to NZ. It was just gossip so I wasn't paying too much attention to what Mike was saying. It's hard enough paying attention to Mike when he's talking about footy let alone other goss lol.

Fev claims the phone was lost at Newy's place......
Bingle has claimed the photo was taken without her consent. Fevola, questioned by the AFL's new manager of integrity Brett Clothier, claimed she agreed to it and had not asked him to delete it.
The 27-year-old also claimed the mobile in question - not his main telephone but a pre-paid phone - was lost after being left at the home of his friend and fellow footballer Richmond captain Chris Newman. There is no suggestion Newman had any involvement in the saga.

I have heard that as well al. If the affair was a couple of years ago, the photo must be that vintage as well.
Now that it's been brought into the public eye, I reckon every second person has it on their mobile now.

The AFL had their chance to punish Fev after the Brownlow incident. No point them being angry now behind the scenes because all they can do now is ban him from a Lions promotional video.

Bingle's side of the story is she didn't know at first that Fev was married until she heard Alex and Fev's kids in the background when she rang him 4-5 weeks into the affair. Given the Fevolas were in the public eye (hello Footy Show and past Brownlow nights) it's kind of odd she didn't know.
Bingle's selling her side of the story to Woman's Day for $200k btw ::).

If the phone was lost at Newy's place maybe Jordie could be implicated as the culprit and action taken by the RFC to sack for bringing the game into disrepute

No one here probably cares lol but ACA tonight says Clarke has split up with Bingle.

I got on the computer when that came on about them two.
They are just like a lot of people splitting up.

Nothing most would not allready have guessed.
On SEN this morn Derm had an interesting story of when Lara quizzed him about Fev and Derm pointed out Chins missus and Miss Bingle was unfazed.
Wouldn't touch that filth ...... actually hmmm! Then I would kick her out onto the street :shh

it's possible that a photo taken of Ms Bingle when she was screwing someone else's partner/husband, may be playing a part in the break up of her own relationship.
Don't want to lay any judgment , though I can see a certain irony to it.

what about the ""duck "" giving Fev advice.

Brendan Fevola's $50,000 weekend betting binge
Phil Rothfield
Sunday Herald Sun
December 12, 2010
AFL bad boy Brendan Fevola allegedly lost $50,000 in a gambling frenzy that included 224 bets over a weekend, according to emails and text messages.
The betting binge was among some sensational details revealed in the email log.
The star footballer's gambling addiction cost him his marriage, almost his football career and left him more than $200,000 in debt.
At the height of his addiction, Fevola would bet tens of thousands of dollars an hour - all on credit - on anything from major horse racing meets to suburban greyhound races.
Fevola is still being hounded by bookmakers chasing debts, including one man who threatened to use a Gold Coast standover man to extract payment from him.
In emails seen by the Sunday Herald Sun between former Brisbane Lions chief executive Michael Bowers and a commission agent, it's alleged a corporate bookmaker in Sydney had enlisted the "well known standover man" to collect $20,000 he was owed.
The agent, who was owed $4000 by Fevola for a bet he placed on the footballer's behalf, also corresponded directly with the Lions forward. In one email to Fevola, the agent wrote: "I believe he will cop 20k if paid urgently, otherwise he will try to collect the 100k or so he says you owe. I need to speak to you about him.
"Don't mention my name to him as I have a mate (a heavy!) talking to him about the debt."
It can now be revealed that on one weekend in February he took 87 bets via text message on the Saturday, then 137 bets by text on the Sunday - and lost $50,000.
Copies of text messages between Fevola and a Sydney betting agent detail his two-day punting marathon.
Text message records show:
"Hey peter.. Brendan fevola here ... just spoke to rossco he said I might be able to open up un account with u today? What do I do just text u through bets?"
And then the betting started.
Fevola: "Syd r1 number 4 1k win. Doomben race 2, $5k win. Adl 3, $5k win"
And so on and so on. By late afternoon he was winning a bit over $16,000 and started betting on the dogs, trots and twilight race meetings.
Fevola: "$5k on the 4 at Singapore, $5k on the 1 at Bulli, $2k on 1 Medows, $3k on 1 toomba."
The Sunday Herald Sun can reveal Fevola owed money to at least seven corporate bookmakers and commission agents totalling more than $260,000.
Many were willing to significantly slash the debts in order to recoup money owed by Fevola.
Another commission agent, Peter Wilson, sold debts of $46,750 to Neil Hunter who would accept $23,750 from Fevola.
Michael Bowers confirmed he had received the emails from the commission agent, who cannot be named for legal reasons.
He said the club had acted in the interest of protecting Fevola from the threats.
"We took all appropriate action. I did say to the people who sent those emails, 'It's good that you sent those emails because if anything happens to him, this will be one of the first things the police see'," Mr Bowers said.
Fevola's manager and former Brisbane Lion Alastair Lynch said the troubled player was paying off the debts.
"Brendan has been working through all his debts and he's committed to paying them off," he said.

Brisbane to sack Fevola
Caroline Wilson
February 19, 2011
BRISBANE Lions will sack troubled footballer Brendan Fevola within the next few days. The Lions could make the official call as early as Monday, having held high-level talks yesterday at AFL headquarters.
Contrary to recent reports, the AFL yesterday confirmed it would use its discretion to relieve the club's salary-cap woes by spreading Fevola's seven-figure payout over two years, as it did with St Kilda last season when Andrew Lovett was sacked.
A Brisbane Lions contingent led by club chairman Angus Johnson, acting chief executive Steve Wright and football boss Dean Warren yesterday met AFL bosses, including Andrew Demetriou and Adrian Anderson. Although Fevola was not the only topic on the agenda, when the talks broke up no one was left in any doubt regarding Fevola's fate.
Fevola's manager, Alastair Lynch, said he had not received any official word from Brisbane but agreed that the longer the stalemate lasted the worse it appeared for Fevola, who remains in a rehabilitation facility and has no meeting scheduled with Lions coach Michael Voss or other club chiefs.
Lynch said Fevola would remain in care until he knew whether or not he had a future with the Lions - the club he joined last season after Carlton terminated its star full-forward, the 2006 and 2009 Coleman medallist. The Age understands that special arrangements would be put in place by Lynch's Velocity Sports to help Fevola rebuild his life after leaving Brisbane.
Under Fevola's generous three-year deal, he is due to earn at least $1 million this season from the Lions, along with $100,000 from Carlton. With the Lions looking to settle with Fevola to the tune of at least $1.2 million and potentially up to $1.5 million - he was contracted in 2012 for about $400,000 - the AFL is believed to have approved spreading Fevola's payout over two seasons.
Anderson, the AFL's football operations boss, last night confirmed the league had discretionary powers to spread any termination settlement over more than one season, although he refused to discuss Fevola specifically.
With significant six-figure gambling debts, Fevola - a confessed gambling addict, depressive and binge drinker - is expected to return to Melbourne in a bid to rebuild his life.
The Lions board had reportedly planned to reach a decision on Fevola next Wednesday but was awaiting an official recommendation from Wright and new football boss Warren. Yesterday's talks are understood to have significantly speeded up the proceedings.
Fevola was suspended indefinitely by the club after being arrested for being drunk and disorderly in Brisbane in the early hours of New Year's Day, but even before that incident the club had looked at cutting its losses and terminating his contract.
It had hoped to release him at a less significant financial cost after a woman alleged he had exposed himself to her at a community function last September, but Fevola was cleared by police of those allegations.
Fevola then flew to China to join the club on a post-season tour which included an exhibition game against Melbourne, where his poor behaviour was witnessed by AFL officials.
The New Year's Day incident involving a clash with police proved to be the last straw for the turbulent but talented full-forward.
As costly as Fevola's payout will be, the decision to recruit him - led by Voss and his then football boss Graeme Allan - has already proved devastatingly expensive for the Lions. The decision was approved by now departed chairman Tony Kelly and then CEO Michael Bowers, who was exited from the club late last year. The decision never went before the board and led in part to the resignation of director David Liddy.
Premiership forward Daniel Bradshaw quit, disenchanted, for Sydney, and at the end of 2010 Michael Rischitelli and Jared Brennan left for bigger money at the Gold Coast.
Despite Fevola's increasingly highlighted off-field issues, the view from Brisbane is that the club is not a rehabilitation facility and the fortunes of the Lions' playing group had to be placed ahead of Fevola the individual.
It was not a difficult decision. His mood swings were proving a massive distraction to the youth-led path Voss has been forced to take, and influences like Fevola - who can lead the pack on his charm as soon as shun it - were damaging. The club was also mindful that having sacked the errant Albert Proud, it would have been sending mixed messages by keeping Fevola.
The problem was that the latter was much costlier and layered with complexities. Lynch's comments regarding Fevola's well-being, desire to play again and his recommended need for the disciplined structure offered by football placed more pressure on the club. But in the end it was not enough to retain an unfit and unpredictable 30-year-old.
And with some finessing from the AFL, even the payout became a secondary concern. As costly as it will be to sack Fevola, the Lions knew it would have been costlier to keep him.

:lol
He'd get more money from someone up there to play than down here. Either that or one of the sides down here will bring out the brown paper bags so they don't go over the cap :shh
We should sign him. stuff Miller off and bring in Fev :santa

Lions to get smashed in at the bookies for the spoon now.

The next question this raises
Will Voss see out the year ;D

why dont they AFL look at the Saints and stay out of the Brisbane/Fev thing.
Fev may be a drunk, who peeed on a wall, and sent pics of bingle around, but last time i checked he doesn't go around banging 16 year olds or getting charged with rape.
He is a far better person than half those Stkilda losers and now you have to ask yourself what brings the game into disrepute more.
What Fev did or Ricky the sissy Nixon "allegedly" did when walking out of a 16 years olds hotel at 7am
What a joke. the AFL are a complete rabble. Next you will read in the AGE that Andy D and Demetriou were spotted at the hotel bending the girl over in a double tag team effort with Gillan mcfuc-kwit taking footage
-
Wouldn't surprise me if the Fat Controller has gotten himself a bit of the school girl. She's probably working on some sex tapes as we speak.
Love her :-*
Fev's brilliant

I agree that when it comes to Fev the AFL hate him but for 'some reason' love the saints. What annoys me more is that is the media.
If FEV farts to loud the media is downwind exposing the smell. I mean what's wrong with hitting a baseball into a car window by accident whilst helping out a new Brisbane baseball team? If you listened to media reports at the time you'd think he murdered someone.
But anything about the saints and for 'some reason' they don't want to release the FULL details. I don't understand this. Even now with the peddo Nixon, apparently the herald sun have tapes and video. Let's see it. I'm sure if it was FEV it would be all over the place.

Fev might still have the "'trump card" ;)

Voss is another Wallett.
Full of it in every way. Came to the club with short term fixes and it has now blown up in his face.
I'l tell you know Hird will be 100 times the coach that Voss is because he didnt chase the quick dream.
Tigra is 100% right the way Fev got crucified for that baseball hit was unbelievable, and this fiasco with our very own Hey Dad mr Nixon well the AFL will just wash it down the toilet

not just the AFL but more frustrating that sections of the media hide it. It takes guys like Neil Mitchell and Derryn Hinch to expose the hypercritical. If it's a story then tell us what's going on. Why are the saints such protected citizens?

Why are the saints such protected citizens?
Perhaps deep down in this statement the answer is buried ?
"We were told that if things went well, consider yourself a Saints person for life,"
Former Brighton Sen-Det Scott Gladman in relation to claims he was pressured to drop the milne rape case.
http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/st-kilda-players-in-shock-sex-cover-up-claim/story-e6frf7jo-1225882432318
"You better make this go away. You better do the right thing. You better make sure that this is done properly."
Mr Gladman claims the police officer called him twice more.
"I was left [with] no doubt in my mind that people have long memories in the police force and that if I want to go far, or want to get on, then I have to do the right thing here," he said.
He said he could not leave the brief of evidence in his desk at night because he couldn't be sure it was safe.
"I couldn't understand how something like that could become so big, and allowed to become so out of control," he said. He found part of the transcripts of the players' police interviews on his office photocopier, he said.
Recordings of their interviews had also vanished from his desk for up to seven hours.
The former officer said he learned that someone had shown people at St Kilda the woman's statement, revealing her identity.

Fev is gone just watched the media conference on sky news
-
leave Crazy Vossy in Brisbane. :rollin
-
When this trade was first done. I thought it wasnt the greatest but now they've fired Fev after the little amount of games he played they basically just gave pick 12 and henderson away for nothing. :lol
-
would have been much funnier if he stayed at carltug
-
Fev has just signed up with Casey Scorpions in the VFL.
-
The Dees aren't happy. Even forgetting all his personal problems Fev will take a spot up in the Casey forward line that could be used to develop a young Melbourne tall. Basically the same reason Hardwick gives for wanting Richmond to go it alone with our own VFL side.
-
No wonder the Dees are less than thrilled. Good luck with that one Casey!

I hope he does well and proves a few people wrong.
He is a better person than Nixon and a few of those low lifes down at moorabbin.
Wow he peed on a wall
Ooh geez he hit a baseball on a car.
So he told a cop where to go. Big deal
We need guys like him playing the way he does, or the game would be very boring

Put a barman in a headlock in Ireland.
Followed a female journalist into the toilets at the Brownlow among causing general chaos.
Is alleged to have flashed his ol mate to a woman at a function.
It goes on. Who knows what has been covered up.
Better than Nixon? lol setting the bar high there Dan.
Fev might be a half decent bloke if he didn't drink.
That's his only chance IMO.

so no one here has got in a disagreement at a bar/pub have they. How is that different to what Brogan did at the airport.
All football players do it. Most of them are not good role models. What about Didak and his efforts. Give me a spell
Fev was made a scapegoat by all concerned, media included. There are PLENTY in the AFL who have done what he did and thensome.

Longer than most who would have lasted half as long for the number of indiscretions due purely to his ability.
He should stay off the pee or he'll fu again no doubt.

BRENDAN Fevola was today asked to leave Crown Casino before midday this morning because of his addiction to gambling.
The wayward former footballer arrived at Crown around 10.30am and began playing poker on his own.
But he was later asked to leave by a casino staff member.
Crown spokesman Gary O'Neill told the Herald Sun: "As soon as Crown was made aware that Brendan Fevola was in the poker room, he was approached by a responsible gaming liason officer, who is not Crown security, but a person attached to the Crown customer support centre.
"And he was told: 'In the circumstances Mr Fevola, Crown believes that it would be better for you not to be on the gaming floor'. He understood the point we were making and he left of his own volition.''
Mr O'Neill said the conversation took place after a third person asked Fevola to speak with the Crown officer.
"We didn't speak to him until after he left the table. We explained it to him once and he got up and left. It was all very low key,'' Mr O'Neill said.
Fevola has been paid an estimated $30,000 for a tell-all interview on tonight's Footy Show.
The Herald Sun is attempting to contact Fevola's management for comment.

Media better not go harsh on Fev for being asked to leave crown.
He done nothing wrong Crown just know his got a gambling problem and don't want bad media attention.
-
What a fool. Who's the chump on this site that wants us to draft him?
-
No one will draft him and his baggage. He's finished as an AFL player.
-
Does anyone know, if Crazy Vossy hadn't of traded away Brisbanes future for Fev, were Carlton going to keep him or were they going to delist him?

Richmond captain Chris Newman says Brendan Fevola has unfinished business, can make AFL comeback
* By Jon Ralph
* Herald Sun
* March 18, 2011 8:57AM
Richmond captain Chris Newman says Brendan Fevola has "unfinished business" and believes an AFL club will risk signing him next year.
The pair are close family friends, with the troubled full-forward staying with Newman's brother, Shane, since his return to Melbourne.
Fevola is set to return from the United States to sign with VFL side Casey Scorpions, but Newman says if he wants to play AFL football again he must lift his game.
Newman says only if Fevola shows AFL clubs he has changed will one extend him a lifeline.
"I think it is important for him, and he feels like he has got some unfinished business," Newman said.
"The ball is in his court. If he wants to play, he has to conduct himself in a manner good enough for an AFL club to pick him up. He has to get back from overseas, knuckle down and train hard."
Carlton captain Chris Judd did not rule out Fevola returning to the AFL but was more concerned with his overall welfare.
"(He should play again) if that is what he wants to do," Judd said.
"It would be great for him to find some happiness next year, and if that's playing AFL, VFL or just being a dad, whatever makes him happy would be best."
Newman said Fevola was spending some time with his (Fevola's) brother, Jason, in America and trying to "get away from the media circus, which will no doubt be waiting for him once he gets back".
"He was staying with my brother before he went overseas, and Shane is doing him a favour housing him," Newman said.
"Shane has been a pretty big influence on our lives growing up. I think he's in a good place at the moment.
"I am not sure of the living arrangements going forward."
Newman believes Fevola's career is not dead.
"A year is a long time. As long as he's doing the right things, perception can carry a lot of weight," he said.
"He has to play team football, which AFL teams want to see.
"I think I doubted it. I thought he was finished, but I think now he can make a good go of it. He just needs to make a good decision and stick with it, and work really hard."

Frankston is probably his only other option but seriously until he gets his life sorted outside of footy then he's only going to continue to spiral downwards.

What's worst for him is neither do those who know him. It's all very well to blame club and AFL culture but at the end of the day you're responsible for your own behaviour. It's not as though Fev is an impressionable teenager or a young footballer still living the high life.

Agree MT that he needs to take responsibility for his own actions (been saying it for yonks) but his ex was right as well, the culture of the AFL & particular the CFC played a role. Facts are top players get special treatment
For 10 years Carlton allowed him to get away anything & everything and as for the AFL why they didn't punish him for his pathetic behaviour on that Brownlow night still beggars belief... so there is no doubt they can share in some of the spoils of the blame. ;D
To hear Lloyd on SEN & then Darcy on "One week at a time" last night saying it has NOTHING to do with "Culture" was laughable. Especially after LLoyd admitted that Essendon did treat their top liners differently when dealing with poor behaviour over lesser name players. When asked by Maher "what did you do about it?" Lloyd said "er Nuffink, I had not say".
-
I'd doubt we'd even contemplate it given Fev's history at two clubs but this was posted as a comment in the Herald-Sun ....

For mine Fevs best fit would be Richmond, Jack needs some support and another big target would help him to impove his own game. Dont know how the party boy and Hardwick would pair but might be the best thing for him and look at the service the Dogs have got out of Hall at an older age than Fev!

Given Brendan grew up mates with our captain, our recent history of giving a 2nd chance to Cousins, I see this as adding to the proposition that he plays for the Tigers.

BRENDAN Fevola has developed the blood infection golden staph after being taken to hospital with a suspected spider bite.
The former footballer confirmed yesterday he had contracted the bacteria, which can often be resistant to antibiotics and is related to surgical procedures and wounds.
"I got a spider bite that got infected. Just got the blood results back and I have staph, not good," Fevola tweeted.
Staphylococcus aureus, or golden staph, is a common bacteria that lives on the skin or in the nose, but which can be potentially life-threatening if it enters the bloodstream of vulnerable patients.

Not sure how often people get infections from bites don't hear of it very often. Hope Fev recovers though some of though's superbugs can be nasty.

Alex was bitten as well
