De Goey rejects Collingwood contract offer over behavioural clauses



Jordan De Goey has rejected a contract offer from Collingwood, saying he will not sign a new deal with the behaviour clauses the club is demanding.

De Goey told coach Craig McRae and football manager Graham Wright at his exit interview last week that he wanted to stay at the club but would not sign the new five-year contract offer with the existing behaviour clauses.



His manager Ryan Vague reaffirmed that position with Wright on Sunday and Monday. De Goey has agreed to some extra clauses in a new contract but believes the clauses Collingwood wants are too broad and arbitrary.

It is now with Collingwood to decide whether they can reach a compromise on the clauses. A club source said the Magpies had not given up of re-signing De Goey and remained hopeful that a deal could be reached.



The club will require some protection in a five-year deal for a player who has been involved in several off-field incidents. He was arrested over a drunken incident in a New York nightclub in October last year, later pleading guilty to a downgraded charge of harassment, and the Magpies withdrew an earlier contract offer after he was filmed making lewd gestures with a woman in Bali during the mid-season bye round.

St Kilda remain interested in De Goey, who is a restricted free agent.

If De Goey were to exercise his free agency rights and seek a move to St Kilda, Collingwood would only receive a compensation pick tied to their first round selection - currently pick 16 - in November’s national draft

That should get JDG over the line

The Collingwood board could overrule their football department. It is now essentially a board decision now.

That would be humiliating for a lot of their employees. And would cause ructions internally.

De Goey has whacked the ball right back in Collingwood’s court. I reckon he’s happy to walk to Saints now.
 
I feel as though the afl allowing salary dump trades is a slippery slope to allowing teams to trade cap space for draft picks.
I.e. Saints take on 750k of another teams cap space for draft picks alone.
It's a little bit like the luxury tax concessions in the NBA.
Can potentially lead to strong teams staying strong and weak teams staying weak. Hope it doesn't happen

Pretty quickly the narrative has shifted to St Kilda being careless to go after a player with behavioural issues who doesn’t want to agree to certain behavioural issues.
What does it mean? It means he didn’t like the clauses they put in place, not that he wants to continue to misbehave.

yeah, they can change the clauses and he can sign with them. that's what will probably happen.

He says he wants to stay at Collingwood, but he doesn't like the behaviour clauses. I believe the Pies will work through the clauses and get him signed. We are still a their fall back and JDG manager is just using us to pressure Collingwood. It obviously all comes down to how calcentrat they are.
