I don't judge De Goey but whatever allegations that have been made against him whilst overseas, but I do question his judgment in going overseas in the first place. The timing of those trips screams of lack of professionalism, as it seems that football is a means to his lifestyle. 

Personally, I think the "No DH Policy", is a load of rubbish. Martin Pike was seen as the ultimate DH when at Melbourne, and ended up a 4-time premiership player. Roos admitted that we had the chance to get Toby Greene, but he was seen as a DH. As long as players abide by whatever the club require of them, I couldn't care less what they're like off the field. Although I might draw the line if they love Rap music. (A reference to all the TISM fans).

I always call Trent Rivers "He'll never be an old man river" but it hasn't quite taken yet.

A mate who is a huge Collingwood supporter puts this failure squarely at the feet of Nathan Buckley. As you point out Axis of Bob, they had a great young list that never reached heights it should have, particularly 2012-15. 
My mate is getting great satisfaction watching them play now under McRae . He also thinks De Goey should go and Foxtrot Oscar

No offence to your mate but I hope his satisfaction ends soon.

I believe @Colin B. Flaubert is hoping to come to Aus from Japan for that very gig.

I've still got the first TISM single that I bought back in the 1980s, the title of which would not pass the censors on this site (initials are "D.O.M.F.").

It's a 7" single that came packaged in a 12" cardboard sleeve that was glued on all four sides, so you had to break into the packaging to get to the actual record.  Those wacky funsters!

De Goey and Tobey Greene rather support a no DH policy.  They are often missing and are very high maintenance. 

Pike is alleged to have been exported for a specific unforgivable act at Melbourne which need not be mentioned or speculated at this late date.  Whereas as far as we know, he just generally got on the turps elsewhere.

Hear me out..

What if Brayshaw goes ( and i believe it is really 50/50 at the moment) and Jackson goes.

Leaves us with about 1.5mill to spend.. we get an end of first round compo for Angus..  get 2 first round picks and lets say a player like Meek, a ruckman that we actually need.

leaves us with 3 first round picks.. id imagine somehow we get a top 10 pick from Freo and there original first round pick.. maybe 14/15 plus pick 20 for angus after possible priority picks and FS picks (if there are any, im not sure this year)

DeGoey would have to be a thought, it would cancel out Angus pick and yes not many like him, but he can play.. and would play mainly forward i reckon. 

or we bundle pick 20 and pick 15 to give to some club for an earlier pick and aim to have 2 picks inside top 10.

SO many possibilities.

Pies are chasing McStay as well, so they won't get free agent compensation if De Goey leaves.

This is classic Demonland.

Someone revived a thread that’s 4 YEARS OLD, and now it’s splintered into 3 extra pages of people screaming No, a side argument about when forgiveness should and shouldn’t be given, and a thread within a thread about an 80’s alternative band.

Bless you all.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
