What you are suggesting is that the comments made by Fev after the Collingwood game in 2007 are disingenuous because he was "on the club's payroll", yet the comments he made recently carry more weight because he is no longer on the payroll.
The problem with this whole premise of tanking, in relation to Fev in the latter part of 2007, is that some people fabricate what they believe to have been the case e.g. Fev was removed from the ground for the last 10 minutes of the game in question because he was winning the game off his own boot (some of the worst liars have suggested it happened against Essendon, even though Fev only had 7 disposals that day & kicked no goals, there are also those who have inflated the number of goals Fev kicked in the Collingwood game), yet as ODN has pointed out on a number of occasions, the reality was he was off the ground for less than 2 minutes against Collingwood & he stated after the game he was experiencing issues with a quad. Fev has tried to rewrite history to generate some attention, as only Fev can, yet some prefer to give credence to what is nothing more than an off the cuff/flippant remark made to draw attention to his book.
There should be no suggestion that a "more thorough investigation" might bring forth some substantive evidence of deliberate tanking by us in 2007. The best anyone has been able to produce, despite regular revisiting of this issue, is still Libba's feeling & a flippant remark made by Fev, years later. Surely if there are others out there who have actual evidence of a directive for us to tank in 2007, they would have come forward by now, because we have turned over a significant part of our coaching panel, playing list & football department since then & you would think there would be the odd disgruntled ex-employee among those who have been moved on in that time.
