FEVOLA / Tigers take a nibble at Fevola

[{X}]

Actually Tony (Mike's son) Sheahan was linking fev with Richmond again this evening of Ch 7's news

i think if fev goes anywhere it will be to us, many tigers fans will bag teh idea and wont like( remember polak) but just liek polak, tigers fans will jump of teh fevolution wagon within weeks. he is a goal kicking matchwinner, best kick for goal in the afl and i reckon he is a great player to be there when richo decides to hang it up

I'd take him - BUT two provisos - depends entirely on what we would have to give up, and imho it would have to be not very much.

In addition, you would have to find a place for Richo, who has maybe 3 years left? If you were to squeeze Richo out or to compromise his value I wouldn't do it.

difference between polak and Fev is that Polak had a possible 10-year career ahead of him. But Fev probably only has half of that.

[Hellenic Tiger]

Assuming we are after Fev and a trying to manufacture a Sarge and Fev swap we need to get Sarge into the Seniors for the last 9 games to at least get him into some sort of reasonable form to at least get other clubs interested because if he plays out time at Coburg no Schulz for Fevola no Schulz for anybody else if anything does crop up in trade week.

This is the deal being offered.
Fev and either 1st and/or  2nd round draft picks for Judd.
Carlton spoke with Judd over weekend

gees jack, u know it all but u still cannot back up everything u say its all 

gees u must have a foot in every clubs door or a finger in every clubs @rse, you are either the town bike or afl clubs advisor!

Mate. only telling you what i was told .

We've told Fev to retire

Ramps, throw in another player and a 3rd rounder and let's get this baby running 

Ok just chuck in Danny Meyer since he doesnt wanna be here lol.
Lets assume Adelaide pick is 10

Adelaide get - Brendon Fevola (Carl) and Danny Meyer (Rich)
Carlton get - John Meesen (Adelaide) and Jay Schulz (Richmond)
Richmond get Adelaide p10 overall and Carlton pick 35 overall.

leaving us with 1, 10, 17, 18, 34 and 35 - 6 picks in the first 35 picks.

That may get closer- but still no deal i reckon...its a hard task.

[one-eyed]

Mike Sheahan reckons Fev is worth a first round pick plus assorted extras.

Both the Age and Herald-Sun have the Doggies (Eade), Eagles (Worsfold) and Sydney keen on Fev. The Crows (Ricciuto) don't seem interested and think Fev will be too costly.

Exactly.  Do you think Fev would want to play second fiddle to Richo or vice versa?

I'll pass on that, we get seriously stuffed over.

I don't care that they are yet to perform but the picks used to get them and the talent that both possess are certainly not worth a pick 10 and pick 35, especially in a draft that will fall away after the top 25 IMHO

[Rodgerramjet]

The only way I believe we will get Fev is if we are prepared to trade our first round draft pick, or something in the first round. At this stage i hope we don't do that, but having said that, it is possible I may change my mind closer to the trade day. It must be remembered that Fevola is an 80 goal a year player, that's the equivalant of 4 of our mediums kicking an extra 20 each, thats a lot of goals.

Fev appears to have a lot of downside, but also remember he has been playing in a crap side and a crap club since he was 21, yes he is a lout but I think this has it's plus points as well as its downside.

Reports are that he is looking at Richmond and based on the happenings of the past I don't doubt that this is taking place, Newman is one of his best freinds, he almost came to us 2 years ago or there abouts, there are people in our club who like him and want him, but it is only early days. There is a lot of water to go under the bridge yet.

On a side note people keep mentioning Newman, without having met the bloke seems down to earth and an honest goer - I Don't get how he can be mates with Fev  ???

they were mates before being drafted.

Both came in the same draft and from the same club Dandenong U18

Unfortunately  Bluey, clubs dont pay on what the original clubs paid, they pay on what theyve seen and the truth is Schulz and Meyer have shown basically nothing...all they have is potential.

True, but you are going to sell yourself short if they do reach their potential but at another club.

If they fulfil their potential

Schulz + Meyer >>>> the 2 picks you are suggesting we get

The top 10 pick may be good but I am doubting the quality of talent you will get at 35
