Barry Hall is our chosen one...

It's Hall over Fevola for the Bulldogs, says Eade (http://www.afl.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/208/newsid/85577/default.aspx)

WESTERN Bulldogs coach Rodney Eade has reaffirmed his club's commitment to Barry Hall despite the sudden availability of Brendan Fevola, who has fallen out of favour at Carlton and will be traded.

Though Fevola, who is four years younger than Hall and is the reigning Coleman Medallist, could appear the more attractive option, Eade said the Dogs were too far down the road with the former Swan.

"We are committed to Barry and he has said that he is committed to us, or that he would like to come to us," Eade said from the NAB AFL Draft Camp in Canberra on Thursday.

"That (Fevola situation) hasn't changed our thinking at all."

Eade also acknowledged the club's stance in its negotiations for Hall, which have hit a snag due to the Swans' demands of a second-round pick for the 250-game player who will be 33 by the time the 2010 season kicks off.

"We think it's probably a bit of an ambit claim at the moment, but having said that we're certainly prepared to go to the [pre-season] draft and so is Barry," he said.

May not mean much but I thought it was good to hear Eade say Everitt is required, and that he hasn't indicated he wants to be traded.

I like this! Hall should fit in better.
Lock in Lake, slot in Bazza, everyone head down & bum up and shoot for two front running seasons. Give us a cup or two and I'll be contempt with some rebuilding years after that?????

I would much rather Hall than Fev.

I think there is a bit more to us wanting Hall than just simply being a power forward. I also see him being used as an assistant coach, but without the title. Who else at the Bulldogs has any experience as a tall forward who could coach? Nobody. Not one person. No-one who can show our young talls how to play as a tall forward. In Hall we would have someone that could be listened to, learnt from and respected because of what he has achieved.

Hall would be a better tutor than Fev I would suggest.

Gary Hall Jnr, Anthony Michael Hall, hell even Jane Hall would probably be a better tutor than Fevola.

You know what i reckon, if Bazza comes to the Doggies. He would definetly be in contention for the Coleman Medal next year. We're 1st in Scoring and Inside 50's i think, this extra edition will definetly give us a much needed BOOST! Work your magic bazza and dont get injured or smack anyone, its not worth it.
