    And if we aren't going to trade our first pick, what/who are we going to give up for him?
    It would make sense to the marketing department.

      Hmmm because Rugby League fans will relate to Fevola's behaviour?

      Kick him out of the sport. Game's bigger than this clown, he's a liability

        Hall to Bulldogs
        3rd rounder + ROK to Carlton
        Fevola to Sydney.

        It will probs be something like that.

        They want Fevola to help White and Johnston develop this year.

            Even thinking about recruiting Fevola would be sheer lunacy. Lunacy.

              Short and sharp isn't your usual analytical style Liz...would you elaborate a bit?

                He's 29, he will cost us pick 6 and one of our best young players at a minimum, and even with him in our lineup we still wouldn't be a top 4 team.

                If everything goes well, we are still a couple of seasons away from being a genuine contender by which time Fev's output will be declining

                  This time of year is interesting. I have just heard a rumour that Jolly really does want back to Melbourne explaining why we are going so hard on Seaby.
                  Hawks are interested which is why McGlynn/Kennedy are up.
                  I have no idea if this is genuine.

                      Help White and Johnston to do what? they want him to handball to them? What on earth could Fevola teach a young person that would be of any value?

                        Hope this isn't true or it will set us back a few more years. I doubt he will go given he's got another 3 years on his contract and I doubt that the Hawks would have the salary cap room for him (and Burgoyne and Gibson!).

                        If so we would want a top 10 pick plus a talented youngster in return

                          Of all the rumours and whispers I have heard on this forum there is none I dislike more then Jolly leaving Sydney. I couldn't bear to see his pulled up socks sporting any other colours.

                            Don't know if you've heard, but ROK signed a FOUR YEAR deal with us at the beginning of this year.
                            Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.

                              Not wanting to support such baseless and IMO silly rumours/ideas, but the fact that a player has a signed contract does not preclude him from being traded.

                                Still, ROK won't be going anywhere.
