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.

If De Goey was a regular 2s player he would already be gone.

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.

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]

Perhaps we could Orstralianise it.

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

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.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
