Premier Jacinta Allan reveals new home for ‘Brass Fev’ statue

The mystery of Brendan Fevola’s statue, which went missing from from Flinders Street Station, has been solved — and Premier Jacinta Allan is behind it.

The mystery of the missing Brendan Fevola statue from Flinders Street Station has been solved with Premier Jacinta Allan revealed to be behind the sudden “disappearance” of the famous “Brass Fev”.

In something akin to a captain’s pick, the Premier decided the famous “Brass Fev” should be moved back to Narre Warren, where Fevola grew up, and be installed at the new Narre Warren train station.

Allan revealed her project Fev plans last month to the former Carlton great and his Fox FM co-hosts Fifi Box and Nick Cody.

“Fev, we are going to take you home, we are going to take you (the statue) to the new Narre Warren station as your new home,” Allan said – and she was not mucking around.

Three days later, on July 26, the statue was removed from the front of the Clocks bar/club on the Flinders Street Station concourse, wrapped up and trucked out to Narre Warren, where it was bolted to the floor inside the station gates.

The Premier even stopped by to pose for photos with the Fev statue in its new home, with the moment captured on video.

“I am here at Narre Warren station. Check out who I have bumped into. It is Fev,” Allan said. “We have brought him back home. It is good to see you in Narre Warren, Fev.”

For the record, Allan is an Essendon supporter.

But it may not be the last move for the statue.

It could return to Flinders Street down the track, or a second Fev could be created to keep Flinders St footy fans happy.

The statue of the big Blue became a late-night magnet for Carlton diehards, who used to queue for a selfie with the life-size Fevola in his footy gear when it lived outside Clocks.

Blues supporters were left bewildered by the sudden disappearance of their beloved “brass Fev”.

The statue was originally unveiled in March this year in Webb St, Narre Warren, as a Fox FM radio promotion.

The statue took up residence outside Clocks in April.

It was so popular with often tired and emotional footy fans it needed security.
