Welcome aboard Alex.
I called you some awful names once or twice.
Well its all changed and your a blueboy now. Go out there son and makes us proud.
Carna blues !!!

 

[PrinceCharles]

Don't think he's a good fit or suited to the modern game. BUT i wish him all the best and hope he proves me wrong.

Fasolo McKay Polson
SPS Charlie McGovern

Looking a dangerous forwardline.

SPS is not a forward pocket.

 

[The Blueseum]

Scott Freeborn, only played 40 odd games

48 games - strong perfromer 2000 / 2001:

I agree. I've put him on the HFF. McKay is FF.

 

[Opine]

SPS is not a forward pocket.

I read the same line up your referring to as SPS being at HFF.

Long time lurker. Just popping in to say he still has a very punchable face.

Think its been done before

 

[Lace_Out]

Looking forward to the dynamic he adds, hopefully Russell helps him get to another level he never knew he had.

Every team needs at least one or two.

We need characters almost as much as we need skillz.

 

[CrazyJoeFevola]

His last 35 games or so have been at about 2 goals a game. In pretty ordinary sides too. Great pick up for a side like us struggling to hit the sticks. Always good to see an Italian in the navy blue too. Kick their arses Fas!

 

[pinot]

Looking forward to his input - think he is a great get.

 

[ferrisb]

I hate to post Collingwood Media vids, but this is entertaining



Steele interviewing him ahead of 100 game I assume he's obviously hamming it up for the cameras, but obviously got a bit of strut about him. Should be good for the group.

 

[ferrisb]

Who was the last decent magpie to play for us who actually excelled?

Scotland.

Wanted to say Scotland, but already taken.

So I will instead note that the rest of our Collingwood recruits usually resemble a Heath; a dry, arid, infertile patch covered in useless vegetation.....

 

[Blue Bawls]

he still just looks so Collingwood, even in the Carlton jumper

I reckon with 44 on his back, he'd look very Carlton.

 

[RedmanWasHere]

Fasolo has 6 letters.
Fevola has 6 letters.

Fasolo is descended from Italians.
Fevola is descended from Italians.

Oh, and they're simply Fas and Fev respectively.

Carlton has its new cult hero.

Zac Fisher, another F with 6 letters, can keep his number.

 

[chelseacarlton]

Has the right name,is only 26,can take a pack mark,can do the spectacular in around the goals,big body and he will want to pay the pies back!!
Love it
Welcome Alex,lose one gain one
You’re too smart SOS

Needs a tan.

We got the best out of Hotton.

 

[MileHigh]

Not sure if its been posted yet but very interesting read on Fasolo opening up about dealing with depression. Incredibly honest read. Terrific to see hes still at it and I get the feeling hes going to enjoy being one of the more senior players and help the kids develop not only as players but as people -

[The Blueseum]

Scotland

Too many Pies / Blues crossovers to list - particularly in the early days - but Scotland would clearly be the pick of the last 30 yrs. Full list below but a summary:

Craig Davis
Ohlson
Peter McKenna
Barry Mitchell (+Swans)
McGuane
Hotton
Scotland
Bryan
C CLoke
Russell
Cam Wood
Of course Dale Thomas
