Former Carlton forward Brendan Fevola in demand as gun for hire in local football leagues across Australia

HE’S big, he’s bold, he’s Fev. And he’s yours for a day if you’ve got at least $10,000.

Cobra #25 Brendan Fevola and Lyndale #36 Shannon Schofield.

BRENDAN Fevola might have retired from AFL football four years ago, but you could argue he’s never been playing more footy in his life.

The former Carlton and Brisbane forward has become something of a country football nomad since being sacked by the Lions in 2011, playing here, there and everywhere and earning a tidy dollar for doing so.

While anchoring himself at Yarrawonga Football Club in Victoria’s north, on away weekends you might find him anywhere across Australia, kicking bagfuls against hapless local players who would have been wiser to call in sick on that particular day.

In his most recent outing, he snagged eight goals for the Sandown Cobras and is understood to have pocketed $10,000 for his efforts.

Depending on who you ask, the ex-Blues spearhead is believed to be making anywhere up to $25,000 for a one-off appearance, though many of his ‘clubs for a day’ cash in big time, with thousands of fans piling through the gate and spending up on booze and food.

Many clubs report that Fevola delivers more than just on the field, and almost always hangs around the club for hours after the game, having a few beers and talking footy with anyone and everyone.

It’s even rumoured that opposition clubs have paid the big man to play against them.

Here’s just a sample of Fevola’s travels since he finished up at AFL level:
