COME on down. That's the message from the VFL to Brendan Fevola as he ponders a possible return to football through the second-tier competition in 2011.

VFL clubs have to finalise their playing lists by March 14, with the potential for further tinkering in certain circumstances up to June 30.

THE Bendigo Bank Bombers have ruled out chasing embattled former AFL star Brendan Fevola.

The enigmatic full-forward is in football limbo after he was officially sacked by the Brisbane Lions on Sunday night.

Fevola has indicated he wants to continue to play football in a bid to regain a berth on an AFL list next year.

NEW Geelong VFL revelation Ben Johnson knows exactly who to turn to in the locker room to draw inspiration.

As much as the support comes from every angle at Skilled Stadium, his story has plenty of similarities to James Podsiadly's.

Johnson had given up on his AFL dream after missing out on selection in the 2006 national draft.

Instead, he was plying his trade as a carpenter in Melbourne during the week and playing suburban footy with his mates for Bell Park in the Geelong Football League on Saturdays.

"AFL was probably the furthest thing from my mind," Johnson said. "I still loved playing footy but, back then, if you missed the draft (as a teenager) you tended not to get drafted after that."

THE Bendigo Bank Bombers have added further firepower to their list with the signing of last year’s VFL leading goalkicker.

Matthew Little was the standout forward in the VFL last year, booting 84 goals in 20 games for Williamstown.

However, in a recruiting coup, the Bombers yesterday announced that Little had signed with the club for the 2011 VFL season.

The addition of Little follows the signing by the Bombers last week of Kangaroo Flat’s Bendigo Football League century goalkicker Justin Maddern.

Little has spent the past three seasons with Williamstown, during which he has kicked 178 goals in 55 senior matches.
