Carey: Time to bring back Fev

In his weekly BPL Vidcast, Wayne Carey admits he was wrong about Essendon. All through the year, Carey has said the Bombers wouldn't make the finals. But now it's clear they have, and a contrite Carey says: ''I was wrong ... and we have to take our hats off to the Bombers. They've been great.'' The dual premiership captain discusses North Melbourne's lame capitulation to St Kilda at the weekend and said talk in the North changerooms after that match was about the 2012 pre-season, so the club is already focussed on a much-improved performance next year. Looking ahead to Friday night's Collingwood-Geelong game - the highlight of an otherwise pretty lacklustre final round - Carey says he expects the Cats to rebound after their shock loss to Sydney, and reckons they should opt for Cam Mooney and his experience over Tom Hawkins in the forward line. And finally, the seven-time All-Australian urges clubs to have a look at reformed and in-form full-forward Brendan Fevola. "It's time to bring back Fev,'' he says.
