well yes, we should trade him for high valuePick in the low thirties (second round from a competing club) doesn’t guarantee a good player.

If a club was to offer 2 first rounders for Henry, I’d sack the club recruiters, coaches and all from the President down.If a club is willing to offer us two first round picks for Henry, I'd make that deal.
Took only one drunken outing for many to call for the sacking/trading of a Collingwood Premiership player, All Australian player.How many drunken outings would it take???
So… the last game wasn’t “good footy”?We should aim to play good footy first. Jordy’s contract is the least of our worries.
Look it’s risk v reward. You sign him now and potentially it’s a big win for the clubLast game was great but let’s not start swinging dicks yet.
So we just block it out?All i ask for is that this be assessed and treated as a football matter -- no hand-wringing about the past, no moral posturing, no projecting about the impact on the club's brand.
Essentially, yes. He's paid / is paying his dues for past issues. To the extent there's a risk of repetition, you cover that with a broad good behaviour clause in the next contract, if there is one.So we just block it out?
Okay
Firstly he is bloody lucky not to have been convicted of criminal charges twice and have his football career taken away from him.
Secondly he is the classic hot and cold player - when he's on look out but when he's not where they fck is he?
Thirdly at his best he is sensational and it's the coaching staff's mission to get him near his best much more often.
I don't think there will be trust - essentially there have been too many incidents.Essentially, yes. He's paid / is paying his dues for past issues. To the extent there's a risk of repetition, you cover that with a broad good behaviour clause in the next contract, if there is one.
I don't see how trust can be re-established if past transgressions are held over his head going forward.
Everything else is for assessment on a football basis.
If you are at or near the top contributors of a particular player thread, and your sentiment is to get rid of said player, it's probably time to question your life choices.I think it's hilarious that the same posters who were so intent to get rid of him, just won't let it go, no matter what the evidence.
How he is considered "lucky" not to be convicted of two fabricated sets of allegations/charges (that were dropped) is a mind boggler.
It seems more that he is unlucky for them to have ever been brought in the first place and instead he got some vindication when they were later pulled. I wouldn't call that luck.
You also have to laugh at the numpties on here that were posting that he's worth $400k a year.

He hasn't gone missing in a single game since he reappeared in the midfield last year.My issue with Jordy is that he keeps finding himself in sticky situations. Regardless of whether he did or not, he should never have been in some of the things he has been. The problem with JDG attached to your brand is the media just pump out crap. Other issue is he goes missing. At his best, he's great. At his worst, he's barely noteworthy.
He was better.He hasn't gone missing in a single game since he reappeared in the midfield last year.
Please be trueJordan de Goey to GCS. Calling it now.
And despite all the talk about him being a wasted talent due to his off-field exploits - the consistency is because he's done a heap of work voluntarily in the last two off-seasons. He's ready to be one of the league's dominant players.He hasn't gone missing in a single game since he reappeared in the midfield last year.
