Jordan De Goey is interested in signing with the Blues, per

"Carlton’s interest or capacity to get him isn’t crystal clear at this stage."

bahahaha hope it's true

 

So much posturing. De Goey and Oliver's management trying to drive up their prices.

As far as I'm concerned I'd be paying Oliver want he wants.

If he wants to jeopardise our cap by taking more than we think we can afford it'll mean he plays in a weaker team than it might be if he took a bit less.

I'm confident we'll do the right thing by him and he'll do the right thing by us.

I wonder how St Kilda will go managing their list after their finals appearance this year.

After ours in 2018 we saw TMac and Harmes' statures rise, both asking for bigger dollars than they would have received pre-2018, and they got them.

I don't know which St Kilda players are OOC this year but there'll be no doubt IMO that some will be on average/poor deals and will be arguing they deserve more.

according to footywire:

obviously their new recruits like jones aren't actually out of contract - weird that they're listed

Agree A F and I'm kinda splitting hairs I know, butDe Goey doesn't currently have a manager.  His father is helping him with negotiations.  

While I can see Oliver's management doing what manager's do about trying to get the best deal for their client (and it's an unknown how serious said player's intentions are in terms of moving clubs) for De Goey it really is all about 'show me the money'.   

As Nathan Buckley said he doesn't have an issue with players testing the market and that it's almost a given in modern footy, but he expects De Goey to re-sign because he loves the club and the playing group.   Whether that is true or not remains to be seen.  Sign on at Collingwood with your mates and the club that has stuck by you or jump ship for extra $.  There's no doubt he will be well-remunerated if he stays as will Clarrie. 

I have no doubt there's a lot of destabilising being done by rival clubs and managers that forces clubs to prioritise their TPP and makes fans nervous.  As a fan all we can do is stay strong and have confidence that there's enough cultural pull (like there was with Jack Viney) to make players want to stay with the club to achieve success... if they don't  - like the old saying goes the club is always bigger than the individual. 

Is De Goey's future in football certain?

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

  • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
