As usual I’m totally disillusioned with Collingwood as the latest news suggests that St Kilda is likely to be the destination for JDG with Collingwood’s blessing. I give up being pissed off with them strengthening other teams with our stars and totally ignoring our coach’s wish to keep JDG
I term the current Collingwood attack based strategy “Unceasing Waves” like on a stormy and windy day with rough seas. A Perfect Storm
What maker you think they are ignoring the Coach's wish? Naturally, the Coach would love to have a fit, focused and firing De Goey in the team every week - but maybe he'd just like Taranto more?
Of course, that's all assuming he is actually going (and I do think you're jumping the gun) - at the moment all Collingwood has done publicly is take the 2+2 contract offer from the table. Who knows, perhaps they'll change their minds and decide he isn't a liability?

The club doesn't want to let him go, it will all come down to the price.
I think we will offer him what we think is a fair, probably incentivised contract, some other clubs may offer him significantly more, no strings attached. he'll make the choice.

Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

BTW, There are numerous other clubs interested in Taranto so it’s not like we have some guarantee of certainty. I don’t like it but let’s see what happens and I’ll let it go now. Getting highly apathetic

ha ha. Looking forward to watching the Reds again. I'd love to get to Anfield one day, but for now I'll be glued to my tv.LaurieHolden wrote:11 days until the season opener Rudey, have you secured tickets?RudeBoy wrote:Yeah, I agree swoop. However, if his manager tries to bend us over for a monster contract, then I suspect we will let him pursue that elsewhere. He deserves to be very well paid as he is a great player and a genuine match winner. However, he certainly has not delivered to the expectations of our club or himself, in terms consistency or of being one of the absolute top players in the AFL. After all, he hasn't come close to winning a Copeland yet. Nevertheless, he is a very important member of our team and I hope he decides he wants to stay and help us win premierships.
Correct weight stui. While I'd love to keep Jordy, as he is one of our very few genuine big game match winners, I think the club is also keen to signal all our players (after the silly monster contract we gave Grundy) a new approach to player contracts. A Premiership winning culture requires a club's top players to sacrifice some salary they could get elsewhere, in order to win flags. Let's hope Jordy is on board with this. If not, then that's a shame.stui magpie wrote:The club doesn't want to let him go, it will all come down to the price.

We cannot win a Premiership without him, next season, and that is a fact. He knows our Premiership window is just opening now, the Saints are a loose cannon, not a great side going places, he knows this, surely. My take is he wil stay , he seemed rapt post game v Port, very happy indeed.

St Kilda - one pathetic flag by virtue of an extremely lucky behind. If JDG goes there, all the commentary about him being immature and making bad decisions in Bali makes sense. Facts speak for themselves.

I’ve got a friend who’s a big LFC / EPL fan. I thought I’d pick a club so we had additional things to talk about. So I picked Newcastle cause they’re the Magpies too.lazzadesilva wrote:St Kilda - one pathetic flag by virtue of an extremely lucky behind.

He said nah, don’t do that mate, they’re a shit club. Won nothing, done nothing.
And that’s what I feel about St Kilda.

I think it boils down to whether Collingwood honestly wants JDG there or are merely going through the motions to give the impression that they are trying when deep down they have already made the decision to trade JDG out and trade Taranto in. My gut feeling is the latter. Only Wrighty knows.
