Apart from the Lara Bingle episode, which was poor IMO, most of Fev's harm was to himself. I don't think he was toxic, but he was certainly immature and basically a big baby.
Starting with the 03 season, he never kicked less than 49 goals in a season. If that isn't handy, I don't know what is.
I've never said that he lacked ability, in fact my post which kicked this discussion off described him as a champion full forwsrd.
His weakness was his almost total lack of self discipline, which to its discredit the club tolerated for far too long.
Pagan wanted him dropped the week that he took his boots off on the bench but was overruled by a weak kneed board, which effectively gave him carte blanche and destroyed the authority of the senior coach.
Some would say that it's been downhill ever since.
He should have been shown the door years before he was in my opinion.
