Eddie would be the last person I’d listen to given how he intervened in getting Beams back to Melbourne and given his perceived racist and sexist remarks. To me it’s about throwing stones in glass houses. To Jordan if he’s reading this, I hope you enjoyed yourself in Bali and looking forward to seeing you back on the football field. And if there are any Collingwood board members jittery at Jordan’s behavior in Bali, can we please have another AGM where we can vote for a new Collingwood board.inxs88 wrote:Jordan has 1980's sensibilities in a more scrutinised 2022 environment and whether that is fair or not isn't the issue.
As Eddie said a couple of years ago in regards to Travis Cloke in that "if you want the big bucks and long-term contract,you have to handle ALL the that comes with it".
So Jordan, party on man, be a flog, embarrass the club, act like a misogynist and extend your wrap sheet however please: "don't dare via your flog brother-in-law agent, have the audacity to ask for more than $600,000 or 3 years"!!!
You cannot have it all!

Just out of curiosity, did any other Pies players head overseas this past week?
Also, I’m glad the club let him go to Bali…. My guess is they wanted to see how he conducted himself after NY. Sometimes you have to set someone up to fail to find out a little more about them.
The club would be forming opinions and validating them along the way. This is another small piece of validation when it comes to decision time at the end of the year.
He won’t last beyond this season at the Pies.

Well said burnsey,
I’ve no idea what will happen but I’m betting the club are not as forgiving as some of the posters here, wether the club ever admits it if not!
You cant fix stupid, turns out you cant quarantine it either!

The club did the right thing. They showed trust in their player. They knew it had potential to turn pear shaped.
Two things could have happened…. He could have gone and returned without any issues or what has happened could have happened. But they wouldn’t have known unless they let him go.
Trust has now gone… and so, I’m guessing, he also will be gone.
Send him to North for a couple of first rounders and he can join his mate Stevo over there playing in front of 12,000 and finishing last.
We’ll use his picks on a key forward.

And if he plays in a winning Premiership side against US, kicks the final goal, and we lose another GF by a point, i guess you will shit your pants then hey ?? Unreal, so bloody naive, unreal this joint at times.

Give the bloke some space and let him find his way with the coaches. Plenty of gifted people struggle in the focus and self-control department, smart and dim alike. Meanwhile, if the club can't cope with a bit of media excitement then it's simply not resilient enough. We're talking about a sport involving young men, not a congregation of Mormons.
In the end the rain comes down, washes clean the streets of a blue sky town.

Forgiving of what exactly TP? For being stupid. And yes the youngest 2 of my three kids are boys. Men now actually, 23 and 19. Both are very respectful of women to my knowledge, as am I. But I have made poor judgements at times when I was younger, particularly when on the grog. But I think I’m still a good person. Jordan De Goey probably is too. He also lives in a world that is totally different to mine so I keep an open mind before deciding that he should be banished.think positive wrote:I actually Lol!Pies4shaw wrote:I'm so looking forward to the third-round draft pick we get for him.

By the way, he’s a match winner. That’s all I care about. They don’t grow on trees so you don’t throw them away.

We need a LIKE button on here. We can search for a replacement and might end up with Horne Francis or Smith!! What then ? DeGoey did nothing wrong as far as I can see, I've seen no video evidence of him drinking, the arm in the Groping video is quite clearly not him, he was giving some muppet the finger for filming him and DANCING!!!With a GIRL!! Who later wrapped herself around him and stated there is nothing to see here. Hopefully some of the negative posters here have no influence over other peoples children is all I can say.Piesnchess wrote:Pies4shaw wrote:I'm so looking forward to the third-round draft pick we get for him.

Or do you think we’ll only snaffle a 4th rounder for him?
Absolutely. It’s important that we all pile on with the abuse - because that’s an adult response.mudlark wrote:We need a LIKE button on here.
