Goodness me.... that is tremendous news.5:11pm wrote:The club has conceded ground on the ‘behavioural clauses’ in the contract and Degoey has signed for 5 years.
I wonder if the club backed down in light of the intervention of the AFLPA??
I assume that the club now does not have to 'trade' to get McStay to retain our compensation pick for De Goey (whatever that would have looked like).
Retain Henry and Grundy and this will be a good period for the Pies..
Interesting to note that zero has come out about Grundy heading off to Melbourne (or anywhere else) now...

Serious question: Have there been any incidents that invoked said contractual behavioural clauses for any individual players, that were deemed so detrimental to the reputation/image of the game,Deja Vu wrote:The standard AFL contract contains behavioural clauses. There is zero need to have additional ones in there. What do St Kilda do at their club that they’d be prepared to take the risk? Clubs back their culture to turn around recidivists, why would we be any different?
Clubs have shown time and time again that they can’t be trusted when it comes to dishing out punishment for off field discretions. That’s the AFL’s job, just like they deal with on field discretions through the MRP and Tribunal.
If the off field incident is egregious the league will deal with it. Everything else is just jumping at shadows unnecessarily.
that the AwFuL actually took the punishment decision process away from that player's club, and imposed a sanction or termination over such a breech?
Perhaps it's poor recollection on my part, but other than a couple of drug related issues with Cousens, W.Rioli etc, and the Essendoping scandal, I'm drawing a blank?

I think Lovett got sacked by St Kilda after he was alleged to have committed and illegal act between the time he was traded by Essendon.
I seem to recall a Magpie draftee never played for the club after an alleged assault on a police officer.
Only two that come to mind.

Sounds about right now that you mention it...Deja Vu wrote:Cousins is the only player that I know of that was deregistered.
In terms of the AFL stepping in and administering a punishment, they did it earlier this year when Bailey Smith was given 2 weeks for the video of his drug use.
That would be Jonathon Ross, who we secured from Adelaide late 1996, and was promptly sacked by Shaw before the pre-season had even concluded.warburton lad wrote:I seem to recall a Magpie draftee never played for the club after an alleged assault on a police officer...
Think Hotton got sacked over same incident, and nearly took Mark Richardson down with them...

IS this fact, for just fantasy, I have not heard or seen anything to support this, of course, I hope its true.
