Rumour Busted De Goey De Gone - Signs on with Pies until 2020

[Dave]

Bloody hell Eddie is such an appalling hypocrite complaining that the media are going too hard over De Goey.

Eddie absolutely hung us out to dry over the Jay Schulz drink driving charge. He made absol8utely sure the TAC had no choice but to drop us.

What did 'Sarah' think of it?

Was she a passengers?

Mate that's just unfair. Eddie asked her off air if she was really a player's mum and she said yes so he put her on air. What more could he do?

Where was this outrage when Hodge got done for drink driving? Much more of a shit bloke also.

There were a few difference with the Hodge drink drive.

1. Hodge had a full licence not a P player so doesn't need to be 0.00
2. Hodge blew less than 0.095, which means under 0.05 over the limit so different penalties under the law.

Facepalm. And to think you were a Big Footy Mod during the Essendon Drugs case, imagine the stuff that people could have really said without your biased moderating on the issue.

It's not my fault you were geoblocked.

I got what I wanted out of the saga. Which is a lot more than what many "footy people" can say.

 

[Lance Uppercut]

Think people are being harsh, footballers aren’t paid that well and Uber’s are really expensive.



Not defending Jordan’s behaviour, but that’s a whole 0.01 over the majority of western worlds BAC limit.



Agreed.

well, not really... it may be for UK and USA but they are outliers and not standard

http://etsc.eu/blood-alcohol-content-bac-drink-driving-limits-across-europe/

In Europe out of 29 countries a grand total of 2 are above .05. And in any case, .09 is still >> .08.

I know for myself when I'm around .05 because I'm feeling tipsy. AFAIC .09 is severely impaired and when the stakes are so high it's a dereliction of personal duty to drive at that level

 

[MaddAdam]

Look at the Essendon supporters always bringing up the doping scandal.

Bloody obsessed they are.

Is that sarcasm? Hodge got hammered (phrasing) over it, since he's a club captain and also not a Collingwood player so most people expect better from him

Hodge was also a fully grown and mature adult.

He also blew close to twice the legal limit.

yeah nah he didn't.

 

[Frank Gallagher]

yeah nah he didn't.

Did he get the good bloke allowance?

You could add others to that list

He blew 0.068

 

[Holy Rioli]

nah he got a low range offense discount (being under .07 and over 26 years old - 10 demerit points, and as he still had a full allocation of points he still retained his license).

De Goey is 21 year old who recorded a BAC reading 50% higher than Hodges offense (hence why I said they weren't similar offenses). Very lucky the kid didn't do some serious damage. Well on the road anyway, his apartment is another story.

 

[SunshineBoy]

Still over stop trying to justify it hodge should have got done.

Eddie complaining about the press coverage , maybe he needs to look back at his comments about jay Schulz.

Drink drive bloody idiot

Agree , what would the outcry have been if he cleaned a family up?

Never tried to justify it. He wasn't close to being double the limit though.

Irrelevant he was over, should not have got behind the wheel,

Take your brown and gold glasses off, just because he wasn’t double the limit doesn’t make it ok

Never said it was. There is a difference in the eyes of the law between being 0.018 and 0.095 over though.

We got Andy McGrath out of it!

 

[SwampCreature]

How is it possible Tassie supporters are still using the good bloke defence

Was hodge .018 or was he over the legal limit?

Stop and take your brown and gold glasses off, you’re trying to justify Luke hodge who was over the legal limit at .068 by making up a number.

At .018 he wouldn’t have got fined and 10 points
