    It's a lack of self-control and judgment which reflects poorly on him as a professional sportsman. I would not want him at the club, and most certainly not for the ludicrous deals talked about this morning involving Jolly, O'Keefe or our first-round pick.

Apart from that I see no point in the argument that he will help the youngsters. He will attract the ball away from them. Twin towers like White and Fev,Buddy and Roughhead,may work however. I feel we are not ready for a flag challenge and by the time we are Fev will be gone.If the current team was 2 years older recruiting Fev if he was 29 would be a stroke of genius.Now? No.it won't work!
        Boy I wanted Lockett. Plugger was just not that professional, and ocaisionally thuggish, with a reputation for always getting reported or injured / unfit

        But he was not a legendary @@@@@head like Fevola

        I mean who cares he tried to skewer Eddie Mcguire with a crutch, wouldn't anyone want to?

          You just answered my question. I thought there was a difference in the "bad" part of "bad boy", between Plugger and Fev. If I recall Plugger and Hall were both goose's on the field while Fev is just an all round goose who can kick goals.

            Fevola

            Please Swannies say it isn't so. Do we want that animal as part of the Bloods. Not sure I would sign up again if he came north.

              I really honestly can't make out what point you are trying to make?

                Would love to have Fevola. All Australian full forwards don't grow on trees.

                There is plenty of room in the forward line for Fevola and White (who is still 2-3 years away from potentially being a gun). Would free up Goodes as well.

                    He acts like a tool when sober.
                    Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.

                      Locket, Hall and Fevola - all labelled 'bad boys'
                      Locket and Hall - 'bad boys' on the field only(?)
                      Fevola - just a bad boy all round.

                          There is plenty of room in the forward line for Fevola ...:
                          - to throw his arms about when he doesn't get the ball delivered on his chest.
                          - to go and sulk and not chase when things don't go his way.

                            best forward in the game with a very strict set of conditions in his contract in an environment that has been very successful with extracting premierships out of idiots?

                            yes please.
                            then again, i think it would be worth trying 15-16 players on field so what would i know

                              GET HIM! I thought we didnt go hard enough in getting him last year, if anyone can straighten him out, it would be kirk! He would be great on the small SCG, sure we can develop jesse white and wait a few years, but unfortuneatly the club simply cannot afford to finish in the bottom 8 for a few years running because of fickle city sydney! Offer a second round selection and a player, I heard Jolly could be part of a three way deal with the doggies and carlton, hence our interest in Mark Seaby maybe. Who knows what to believe at this time of year

                                As soon as he kicks his first bag (of goals), all will be forgotten.
