Geez that's potentially a huge kick in the nethers for DeGooey!

If the filth do not re sign him, them I doubt he'll have many other suitors !

If Collingwood really have pulled their contract offer then I'd expect St Kilda and Essendon to be all over him like flies on a chocolate otter. 

Saints would be a good fit - or Bombers (as others have said could find a good mate in Stringer)

Maybe Mono. The picture might clear a bit when the filth make some sort of a statement about this matter.

Part of what upset Coll/AFL was the statement he put out from Bali blaming the media for persecution of athletes ie of him.  The media did not go to NY or Bali and film him.  It is Jordy allowing himself to be filmed and by the look of it enjoys being in front of the camera.  His statement is typical 'woe is me'.  He just doesn't get it.

It is almost certain that Coll/AFL put in behavioural conditions, whether they end up on social media or not, prior to taking him back after the NY fiasco.  Conditions and trust which appear to have been breached in Bali.  He will be lucky to get a contract from the Pies let alone a long term one on big $.  Even then the contract on the table was 2 years with 'triggers' for 2 years albeit on big $.

If he had been at Melbourne he would have been cut years ago as a 'culture' risk.   Any club with a no DH policy would not take him.   Leopards do not change their spots.

There's a lot of Chris Tarrant the first time round at Collingwood about this. I think the Pies are eventually going to have a gutful.

Double use of 'eventually'. Tired.

Shows how people can develop and mature. Chris is now a successful businessman, developer I think.

It does. Not all is totally lost for him but the guy is going to need to put in serious work on himself. I do hope for his sake he can.

Doesn't seem the new "do better plan " is working. I am at a loss to understand why young people don't get it about filming themselves and the internet. Especially those at an AFL club who would be warned on the dangers constantly.

I think it is more likely that our power problems will be solved first. 


Ginnivan is shaping up to be another 'high maintenance' player.

Funny LH I thought that a few weeks back.

He is still a kid, so there's some chance he'll grow a few more brain cells.

De Gooey on the other hand, appears to be shedding them.

I don't Chris Tarrant from a bar of soap, and he is probably a well rounded, mature bloke.

But, in my experience, being a successful businessman and developer is no guarantee he is not a immature [censored]

Thank you so much for this wonderful euphemism which is a new one to me and shall be filed for future use.

Perhaps we could Orstralianise it.

A chocolate possum, a chocolate ferret possibly. In extreme cases - a chocolate wombat.

I love that word Bbo. “ Orstralianise “ can I use it?

Agree with this a fair bit.

From my understanding the Tik Tok thing is very popular amongst those younger demographic and is quiet harmless. 

All they're doing is no different to what every other 18-20 year old rat bag is doing on social media.

DeGoey on the other hand.. soon to turn 27 and still carries on like he's 17. If he's not going to learn now then he never will.

Not sure that makes this behaviour ok.

They were publicly objectifying girls on the internet. This isn't private locker room talk. These guys are role models.

I am not sure that just because you play in the AFL you have to be a role model. I understand the bit about not bringing the game into disrepute, but being a role model is another level altogether. Even being a model citizen, doesn’t require you to be a role model.

When do we get the angry texts from the Malthouse handover period, plastered across the papers?

  • REPORT: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
