Footy legend Brendan Fevola calls for drastic change at Carlton - 'the board is just there for themselves'
AFL legend Brendan Fevola has called for fresh faces at Carlton following the club's horror 50-point loss to Port Adelaide on Thursday night. The Blues faithful showed their anger after the Power belting, vandalising the club headquarters early on Friday morning in protest of another failed campaign. Fevola, much like the vandals, took aim at the board more so than under-siege coach Michael Voss. 'Something is wrong, something is going on, the board needs to go, I've been saying that for ages, the board is just there for themselves,' the Carlton Hall of Fame forward said on Fox FM's Fifi, Fev & Nick show. 'Get new people in; get old Carlton people in. 'Everyone is saying, 'Sack Vossy, Vossy needs to go', and I'm like, 'No, I don't think that's the go'. 'It gets to a point where you go, 'I don't think the players are playing for you, mate'. If you're playing for a coach, you don't put up what you put up in that first half. 'They're putting up nothing, they didn't kick a goal for the whole first half. 'They don't look like they've got a system; but they do have a system, they train and they train hard. They are just not performing.' Carlton were in second spot on the ladder in round 19 last year - but have won just seven times since. 'They have the players; if Vossy and the assistants were coaching West Coast, you'd go well, they just don't have the cattle,' Fevola said. 'Carlton were premiership favourites at the start of the year (and) they're not even going to play finals, their season is over. 'I (also) don't know what's wrong with Patrick Cripps. I would just put them all on ice and say you're done, get your body right for next year.' Fevola also took aim at out-of-contract ruckman Tom De Koning, who has been heavily linked to St Kilda on the AFL's most lucrative deal. 'The problem is they have Tom De Koning, who is in our top three players. He's been offered $12million to go to St Kilda and Carlton can't match that,' he said. 'If he's going, don't play him; say to him he needs to make a decision now and if he can't answer that, you're in the twos – get some young kid to play. 'If he doesn't want to stay, just be honest.' Voss' men need to win six of their remaining eight games to qualify for finals - but after a pedestrian performance against the Power, that is highly unlikely.

Mia Fevola confirms she is single after two-year romance with boyfriend Bass Miller
Mia Fevola is back on the market after officially confirming she is single. The social media star, who is the daughter of AFL great Brendan Fevola and beauty mogul Alex Fevola, is about to debut on hit reality series Dancing With The Stars Australia on Sunday. Speaking to this week's Stellar about her stint on the show which has already wrapped production, she revealed that she'd hoped to keep dancing after filming, but hadn't found an opportunity - or partner - to practise her new moves with. 'I'm single at the moment, and I'd like to keep it that way for now,' the 25-year-old told the publication. The Aussie influencer went on to detail her busy schedule in the wake of the show and her lack of time for a relationship. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. 'I've got a lot to focus on. And I've gone back to uni – I've finished my business degree and I'm now doing psychology. 'So, while I'm open to [a new relationship], I'm really not looking for anything at the moment,' she confessed. Mia was previously linked to Bass Miller, whom she started dating in July 2023. Last year, the couple made headlines when Bass called the model his 'New Mrs' on Instagram, prompting speculation he had proposed. However, Mia told Daily Mail Australia at Flemington Racecourse that she is not engaged and the post was referring to the new hair-do she received at the time. 'I don't know where that came from. It was directed at my hair because I was blonde and then I dyed it dark,' Mia said of Bass' post. She explained her beau was only referring to her 'new look' and not accidentally revealing they were engaged as previous reports suggested. 'He was like, 'New Mrs,' saying that I dyed my hair. New look. I was shocked to see [the reports],' she added. The social media star, who is the daughter of AFL great Brendan Fevola and beauty mogul Alex Fevola, is set to debut on hit reality series Dancing With The Stars Australia on Sunday When pressed about whether she and Bass had any engagement plans for the future after almost two years together, Mia said she was uncertain. 'Who knows. We're just enjoying our time at the moment,' she explained. 'Everyone keeps saying 'new romance' but we've been together for nearly two years now. It's gone so quick.' Mia will appear in the 22nd season of Dancing With The Stars Australia, following in the footsteps of her famous parents Alex and Brendan, who featured on the show in 2010 and 2012 respectively.
