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.

We could certainly use him fwd of the ball.  Him and Trac changing over would be a tough match up

but you know.... he is a [censored]

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 ...

  • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

    After kicking the first goal of the match the Demons were always playing catch up against the Saints in Alice Spring and could never make the most of their inside 50 entries to wrestle back the lead.
