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.
It may very well set an unhealthy precedent in Pieland, for someone else‘s indiscretion in the future
 
If the AFL was an 80s teen movie and Bowes was the rich kid who's just walked into a nightclub wearing a white suit over a black T-shirt and his sunnies on.....

The Saints would be the dowdy chubby girl with a heart of gold and the home made prom dress.
This post will probably get me banned...I think you're wrong.

The Saints are the hot one with the running mascara that just got railed by the premiership midfield in the dunnies.

We're a sure thing.
 
How good is the media bias towards Collingwood? This is clickbait stuff - big star teetering, about to head off to a new club but no one in the media actually can get their heads around the idea that he would leave to go to a smaller club, so we get mentioned as 'waiting in the wings' in about the 15th paragraph. Never change, media.

Pies all of a sudden setting the standard.. amazing stuff

Geelong would be the hot older camp coordinator with big boobs that all the boys lust after.

Melbourne would be the bitchy rich chick that is really only there as a MacGuffin.

Collingwood the sporty girl in a tracksuit but gets a make over and everyone can't believe she was so hot all along.

Carlton are the the nerdy plain girl that does a similar makeover but then the guy *s off with her best friend in some shock twist at the end of the movie.

GWS and Goldy are the characters two best friends who are just their to make the protagonist look popular.

Essendon are the dodgy racial stereotype Russian girl that gets her comeuppance when she tries to cheat on the math test.

Sydney are the Swedish foreign exchange student with blonde pig tails, booty shorts and tight white T-shirt.

Hawks are the geeky girl that needs a make over but ends up doing well for herself and everyone that picked on her grew up to work in fast food restaurants and servos.

Port Adelaide are the poor girl that tries really hard at her studies but falls in with a bad crowd and goes off the rails.

Adelaide are the rich popular girl that is so pissed off about missing out on being left out of the cheerleading team that she sabotages her teammates.

West Coast are the spoiled ruthless daughter of the richest guy in town that would do anything for their little girl.

Freo is the the black-sheep daughter that the same cruel family don't really love for being a bit plain.

Bulldogs are the working class girl that can dance, the whole movie is made up of montages that show her working an industrial job then dancing in the rain inside an old factory in headband, leggings and a leotard.

Richmond are small town country gal who made it in the big city, she worked hard but it looked like it would never get her anywhere until she got a lucky break when she met some rich guy with his own company called Dustycorp.

Brisbane are a woman in in her early 30s, she made it big early in her career but fell on hard times.... but through grit and a bit of moxie she's back.
How much hand lotion did you manage to get through on your day off? You were "busy" you reckon. Worrying signs here. A peek behind the curtain and into the mind of a mad-man.
 
Bloody hell
Get in there will be a fire sale


Sharp isn't a bad option either if we miss out on Bowes. I've seen a couple of their games where he looked a good player. Seems to be on the outer and they're talking of pushing him out.
 
What doesn’t get spoken about, is that contracts aren’t worth the paper they’re written on to Collingwood.
Even without the clauses, what’s to stop the Pies from pushing him out the door in 2-3 years anyway.
Exactly what I wrote a few ( hundred) posts ago.
“Acceptable behaviour” is a very grey area.
Have they listed every possible infraction in acceptable vs unacceptable columns.

They can use anything they want to justify it when they decide they want his salary off their books as they chase someone new and sparkling in two, three, fours years time.

JDG just has to look at Treloar, Stephenson and now Grundy as perfect examples of what could happen in his future.
