I'd love to get De Goey but it's hard to see him leaving Collingwood when they are playing great football and finals in front of 90k crowds at the MCG.
What do we have to offer him apart from more money? A chance to play in a dysfunctional forward line under Ratten in front of 30k crowds at Marvel.
That's the thing. Everyone would know that he joins us only for the money, there would be no other reason. Can we live with that? What message does that send the group? I don't know the answers, just throwing it out there.
