Do you live with your ex wife? 

That must make it difficult on so many levels.

That's fine he doesnt have to meet your ex wife either she or him can stay away from social functions. She is not allowed to go to training (like you) and around Finals the Clubs are going to be in Covid style Hubs or bubbles. Jordan has smaller $$$ contract with performance bonuses!

    I recall D Martin at the zenith of his 'bad boy' era trying to find a new home and receiving zero interest. None of us wanted him. He went on to become a three time Norm Smith medallist. I'm not saying that De Goey is as good as Martin - or that I want De Goey at the club - but he has some rare talents and any club that can get him to settle down and focus on footy could be getting a matchwinner. This seems more a question of whether or not we could get Jordie to reform himself, buy into our club values and become a better human being, rather than whether we like who he is, what he has done or his current values.

    He's 27 in March! He should've settled down by now.....I don't think he's going to.

    The Age is reporting De Goey has refused Collingwood's behavioural clauses in the proposed contract.

    Gutsy move.

    Very interesting. My mail was St Kilda are in with a huge shot at luring him and Ben King this off season.

    He’s a criminal who refuses to change. I hope he ends up where he belongs. In jail.

    Makes sense AF. They've been sorely lacking in the human detritus department since Jake Carlisle retired.

    If culture is important at Melbourne, we shouldn’t give him a nano seconds thought!

    We don’t need eBay Petracca. We have the real one.

    If deG leaves the Pies, would that change their thinking re Grundy? It would certainly put a spanner  in our bargaining power if the Pies are now not having to fork out $3.5m for deG.

    Obviously intends to mishave otherwise why would he be worried about behavioural clauses?

    Clubs will have to decide if he's worth the hassle. Perhaps a club with a strong culture can keep him on the straight and narrow. I doubt St Kilda is that kind of club. 

    Buyer beware

    It seems like an odd public relations move. A player with very public behavioural issues publicly declares he’s not interested in a contract with any behavioural clauses? Doesn’t that make it almost impossible for any club to put a contract to him without publicly acknowledging they don’t value their culture?

    Surely disagree to your manager and just put the feelers out to other clubs quietly?

    Unless of course that’s already happened and this is being leaked not by the player, but by Collingwood. In which case they may be trying to reduce his value in the market and teach him a lesson.

    That makes sense

    If I were Collingwood ( thank god I am not) I would say there is the contract sign it or move on. There will be very few takers and who ever there is screw them for the best value. The guy is disaster waiting to happen, he will stuff up it is as sure as the sun rising in the east.

    We are dealing with a guy who has proved time and again that he is far from being a rocket scientist.

    heard it was not the existence of such clauses but the wording being too vague and open-ended

    they'll work it all out

    I just want to see the Saints keep pushing up the $'s collingwood has to pay him to stay. I am also keen to see if collingwood has the integrity to stand behind the behavioral clause requirement or they fold as they need him.

    I'd like to see TISM, but I'm too old for festivals.

    I used to play in an 80s cover band. Our drummer was a mate of one of the members of TISM (Sean Kelly, same name as the Models guy, but a different person). He got us a gig once.

    He wasn't the Ron Hitler-Barassi member of TISM ...

    • NON-MFC: Round 12

      Round 12 kicks off with the Brisbane hosting Essendon at the Gabba as the Lions aim to solidify their top-two position against an injury-hit Bombers side seeking to maintain momentum after a win over Richmond. On Friday night it's a blockbuster at the G as the Magpies look to extend their top of the table winning streak while the Hawks strive to bounce back from a couple of recent defeats and stay in contention for the Top 4. On Saturday the Suns, buoyed by 3 wins on the trot, face the Dockers in a clash crucial for both teams' aspirations this season. The Suns want to solidify their Top 4 standing whilst the Dockers will be desperate to break into the 8.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

    • REPORT: Sydney

      A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.
