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!

    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 ...

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
