Injuries have hurt them dearly. Their lacking some real pace through the midfield.


Rich is quick... :lol:


He's an inside midfielder, they need some good outside runners.

There are some articles getting about today regarding Fev, and why is not playing this week.
On numerous occaisons poor form has been suggested.

Now tell me how a player in a new club, who is competing with one of the most dominant forwards in the league for goals, sitting 3rd (maybe 4th) on the Coleman medal tally, is in poor form?

Too often players who set a benchmark for themselves, then have an 'off' day, get crucified?
But if an average player pops up for 3 or 4 goals they get accolades?

Did you see his last two games WLF?
I'm a Fev fan, but bloody hell, he has been terrible in the past two.
Particularly the Richmond game. Could've won the game if he was able to kick the ball.
The kicks didn't even have to be straight. He just had to get boot on it which he couldn't on several occasions, despite being under little to no pressure.
I really hope he bounces back though because we really need him to fire in the remaining rounds.

I watched the highlights (or lowlights) and didn't he have a painkiller in the foot that numbed it too far?
So no, i didn't watch the full two games so I guess he must've been REALLY bad.
But surely he shouldn't be dropped?

It is starting to look like i'm not on the money.

Fevola has fallen foul of his team mates after an incident at a BBQ after his 200th involving Adcock & Browny.

Stay tuned...

The controversial recruit has been the subject of several wild rumours this week, none of which appear to be accurate. An email has swept through football circles while text messages have run hot, claiming Fevola has fallen out with the Lions over incidents at a barbecue.

In one version Fevola was accused of running amok at the barbecue at captain Jonathan Brown's home last week where he was alleged to have made inappropriate comments to a teammate's girlfriend.

It was claimed that Brown intervened sparking a stoush between the two men, but the club has strongly denied the rumour.

The Courier-Mail could not find a single legitimate source that confirmed the rumour and it is understood Fevola and Brown spent last week in Adelaide together receiving treatment from leading physio Steve Saunders.
It's all the SANFL's fault.

Word out of Melbourne is that it was Justin Sherman's lady and Fev really got belted by Browny

Yeah lucky for the Blues but not for the Lions who now have too put up with him. His on and off field behaviour is not getting any better.

Browny said the rumour was "bullsh*t" on the footy show tonight.
I'd tend to believe the big fella. Mostly cos I'm scared of him.

Agreed CN. What the big fella says is always right and you can't argue with it, he just hits the nail on the head.

I tend to agree Chuck, because he's not one of these blokes who cliche's every comment to the media. He's credible, hence when he speaks, I listen and tend to err of the side of "believe" rather than "disbelieve". It's refreshing if nothing else.

I've since heard it was Fev and Adcock at each other and Browny turfed them out.
Mind you, I'm scared of Browny too so I would say it's completely untrue..... 8-[

He never said he wasn't injured. He always just says he's right to play.

Browny tells truths.
When being asked if he was injured, he would say he was right to play. Not that he was injured. He is very tactful in the way he answers questions.

When Fev gets in trouble, Browny says the story isn't true. It could be just what part of the story is not true.

If even a minor detail is incorrect, he'll call the whole story incorrect. He's a smart cat.
