Fevola [merged]

[Francois Jackson]

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

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

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.

WELL WELL WELL TA, what do you think now!!!!!!!!!

LOL Fev holding his press conference with Voss at Wet & Wild 

[Jackstar is back]

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?"
