#2 Jordan De Goey
Moderator: bbmods
I don't think anyone doubts De Goey's talent. People take differing views of how tolerant we should be of his "indiscretions".
He has played 2 senior games since he last stuffed up off field. Let's just wait and see how his attitude plays out. At the moment, he's well short of being an "out and out star of the competition", although he certainly has the talent to be one. The question is whether the talent will be realised.

I am perfectly relaxed. I just don't feel the need to label everyone which appears you do. Stop watching Channel 9 and and you might learn a bit about the world or even better visit it.E wrote:I don't have any frustrations. I think you might be too judgmental. Maybe people in Australia got a little sick of that. Probably better to be in a country where your tiny bit of money talks so you don't have to. Feels to me like you need to relax a little pal. sad.ronrat wrote:No but I am one of "you all all" knock one knock all. You mentioned biundoora, not me.

Go to a girlie bar, you might get some of your frustations out.
Annoying opposition supporters since 1967.
Too funny. You claim you don't label everyone and then you label me as someone who hasn't traveled (which itself is laughable).... Hard for old people to become worldly, no matter how much time they spend in Thai brothels.....ronrat wrote:I am perfectly relaxed. I just don't feel the need to label everyone which appears you do.

E, how does quoting a discussion about Hodge's non-suspension by the Hawks have anything to do with your claims?E wrote:RonRat and K. Take note.K wrote:^^^
What other clubs do with their drink-drivers (and their presidency and CEOship, and their pokies) is their own business...
For the record, Hodge record 0.068, which is much lower than 0.095.
And his "punishment" was a victory for expediency over principles. They simply could not face losing his football skills for that final.
The majority of discussion in this thread centred on whether our club was justified in handing out its penalties (which had nothing to do with delisting, and, as some tried to point out in vain, did not necessarily mean missing any games).
This quoted comment chain has nothing to do with delisting either. It doesn't say anything about penalties or list management. The whole chain merely mentions and gives a video link to the broken promise JDG made when he was drafted.E wrote:RonRat and K.

I worry about the direction he's heading in. ...
At around 2:05.
I'm not worried about where he's heading. I'm worried about where he's already arrived.

de Goey or De Goey ?
Of the first 14 posts in the GB Medal thread, 11 got his name wrong. 11.
It's de Goey.
Well, I did check the CFC website. Turns out they were wrong.

If you read his player bio, it says "De Goey" apart from the title which says "de Goey". I understand it's a Dutch surname, so it's likely spelt as 'de Goey' which isn't uncommon.
However, why does it matter how people spell it if we can already understand what everyone means when the name is mentioned.
