And the 'real' Lion King

Kimba the White Lion,
 
They’ll match the offer. We’ll have to trade.

Doesnt mean we'll have to or need to trade De Goey.

They wont want to be signing Lynch for three+ years when he wanted out. It would be idiotic. They will only match if they know they can trade him immediately.

As per the Adelaide/Geelong deal for Danger, they might match it (or threaten to) to get a better trade than compo would provide but still less than market. The buyer (hopefuilly Collingwood) should have the upper hand in negotiations
 
The club is concerned about some of his off field choices if the reports of the past are true and he missed the start of last season because of a poor decision.

de Goey has form and I dare say this wasn't the mix up the club are spinning it as (what Hocking made the same mistake also) and Hocking who was also a bit of a rogue himself I'm sure when young was most likely counseling de Goey and giving him some sage advice.

Big year for de Goey as he remains a tease and entering his 4th year it's time he starts consistently displaying the talent he has within if he wants to have a successful and long career.

Given that channel 7 is the only news service / media outlet to pick up the supposed story I’m guessing that the facts are much closer to the Club’s version than to channel 7’s. Given how much all the media outlets love to use Collingwood for click bait if there was anything too it would have been everywhere.

Long career? No doubt he will play for 10 years, that's a long career in the AFL. How successful though will depend on the team's success. He may be destined for individual success, but he won't be recognised in the broader world unless he earns a premiership medallion. It's a long time retired without achieving team success, just ask those blokes who ran around in the Hafey era, they would swap any medals they achieved over their career for a premiership.

That's really it in a nutshell.

If there was any legs the sewer dwellers would for all over it. They'd love swimming in that kind of Collingwood stuff.

Might really be as simple as sewer seven noticed no de Goey asked where JD was someone says, who the hell knows maybe he's .... blah blah blah ....
Off goes sewer seven trying to get the "news" first without checking the facts.
In this case the reporters name is quite apt.

(That, or the club covered it quick and well.... but unlikely because these things seep out. And not a peep was hird)

I appreciate that some campaigners set up vanity threads like 'Ben Reid Player Claim' and annoy us, but you would easily have the material to sustain a pinned blog.

(God I have just unthinkingly scoffed a bag of stale garlic papadums while reading BF - better go to work)
Work what is that exactly, is it necessary in life.

I certainly can't agree with that. Bob Skilton won 3 Brownlow Medals, but played in just 1 finals game (for a loss). Robbie Flower was a fabulous player, he played for 15 years, yet played just 3 finals games. Of course they're "recognised in the broader world", despite not being Premiership players. They are champions who will be remembered for a long time after their careers ended.

These days we have an 18 team competition, with a salary cap and draft, designed to keep the competition as even as possible, and if a club wins a flag every 20 or so years it's pretty much on par. No doubt some people would agree with you, but I think people need to have another look at what they consider "success". If we finished second next year I'd consider it an amazing achievement and absolutely a success story, yet some wouldn't because we didn't win the flag!
 
Seemed like you were agreeing with him?

About JDG, no. About Ed, yes. I don’t exactly see what your issue is though? I’m here to discuss footy so if the likes of TG and even BJ make points I agree with I’ll acknowledge that. It doesn’t change my opinion that Coventry-Tateson is amongst them in terms of pot stirring and flat out lies on connections!

Ed has a plan

Let’s hope he keeps it to himself :thumbsu:

Personally I find it difficult to agree with a poster who uses lies to prove his point.

It has to be a stunt to get exposure for his failing radio show surely? They tried to bring in Rita Panahi on his show to get some of those ratings back. He's a dinosaur

Look I’m tired of these arguments with you because they go nowhere. For context though this is the only post of his I quoted. I’m all ears as to which part in particular is a lie? I don’t listen to McGuire’s shit radio show so how can I verify the Panahi stuff? He’s also right that Ed’s a dinosaur!

The rest is simply speculating on a theory a few other people had that it was a ratings grab. Get over your love of Ed it’s boring!

Bucks would too but he does likes the individual accolades or he did early anyway. Things have moved on for him and for the better IMHO

Apologies if I have you confused with other posters. There were a few drinking Rohan’s bath water.
 
Two of my all time favourites were no Saints off the field, Dane Swan and Darren Millane. JDG deliver on the field and live your life off it.

Couldn't agree with you more mate, like them 2 I was also a fan of Dids and am a strong believer that if you perform on the field and providing that your off field habits don't creep into the club, then go for it and live ya life.
