Fact is, this is the second incident and it’s only a few months after he was cleared by the court for the first one. I know alcohol make people do dumb things, but he should have known better. Especially after oh I don’t know facing court for assault charges in August, and just getting a new manager for his contract year and getting prepared and professional to be a four-quarter footy champion.

The dream of one controversy-free preseason shattered again. They are as elusive for Collingwood as premierships.
JDG travelling to the States with what sounds like a tool of a mate was always going to end in trouble. What was the club thinking?

Could have traded him for huge value 1 maybe 2 first rounder next year....SIGH the warning signs hve been there for years and the club has just given more and more rope.
Lesson learned i hope Collingwood

What a f*** wit! Why do we tolerate this idiot and everything he does. Let's face it, he's a half-arsed footballer with a lot of potential talent who refuses to put in any effort to better himself and help the team. Always has. Always will. Ask yourselves why he's always injured or takes longer than expected to recover from injuries?? That's right, he doesn't do the rehab.
Instead he pisses around and gets by on his so-called reputation. Time and time again he gets himself into stupid situations involving alcohol thereby bringing unwanted attention to himself and the club. I hope he's charged and they throw the book at him, but I'm sure all his money and lawyers and club and the club's lawyers will bail him out - again.
At what point do we say enough is enough and just tear up his contract. We're talking about a guy who, before this, was literally playing for his career. Now, he'll be lucky to still have one. We should have traded him this year and cut our losses. He won't be getting a million dollar deal now that's for certain - at least not with us. Best to just let him go at the end of next year and get the compo pick and trade for whatever we can in return. A deal involving King from the suns would be good.

Well time to focus on the positives...get him off the list and free up caps space for a talented player who actually wants to play AFL and make the most of thier ability. We also have the money to keep Moore.

This should come as no surprise.
It is common for athletes to go to the US to train hard during the day at these boot camp type set-ups, but then party just as hard at night. Being in another country where they are not recognised seems to make them feel they can do as they please.
Personally I hope they throw the dickhead in a cell with Bubba for a few nights. "Who do you want to be - the husband or the wife?"
That might shake some sense in to him.

Partying in New York with your tattooist. What could possibly go wrong?
