No doubt De Goey is a good player but do we sell the farm for a controversial serial offender ? I suppose it comes down to how desperate are we to take advantage of a situation that might actually give us massive bonus . I honestly don't know but I MO the latest incident is a storm in a tea cup .

Free agent so comes at no cost except salary cap space and reputational damage to the club if he fks up ..... on the positive side our forwardline could be absolute dynamite and near on impossible to contain .... if our young mids keep developing and we can add more experienced midfield depth

It is quite the gamble isn’t it.

It could be brilliant or a disaster and you live or die by the result.

In most instances, these gambles don’t pay off. But clubs that swing and succeed win premierships. Take this St.Kilda… add a fit and firing Amon and DeGoey whilst bringing in another promising kid.

Could be the master stroke move
It could. It also depends who else we could get instead.

Doing the same old stuff every year has never worked.

1 flag in nearly 150 years. I think our reputation is safe.

I’m somewhat inclined to agree.
The sweetener is the free agent part… makes the deal distinctly different to the Lovett situation.

It reminds me of the Ben Cousins situation that we didn’t risk. Personally I reckon that would have been the difference

Personally, I think I’d rather take the risk and fail rather than as you say, try the same old stuff

Yes he is for free. So is Amon. Grab both of them and delist players to fit them into the salary cap. Then use all our picks at the draft


St Kilda should never trade with Essendon and Sydney ever again!!!

Free agent or not he is still going to cost us a lot in match payments if the quoted 800k for 5 years is correct.

@saintkid totally agree re Lethlean should not still be at St.Kilda neither should Hannebery in my mind..
Another year on our listed with zero impact .
But alas body will be right after another good pre season we have heard it all before.
Amateurs looking good for Hannebery when he comes right with Lethlean on the boundary yellng i told you so

What did DeGoey do in Bali that was so terrible? I saw footage of him partying in a club.

Was he eating a person in the background or something?
He attempted to expose a young ladies right breast on camera whilst she was intoxicated and then posted it to social media

Then he followed it up by eating someone in the background
Ok so it wasn’t just feign outrage then.

Thanks for clarifying
Turns out it wasn't him after all.

Dan Hannebery is currently on 800

How about using his contract to secure DeGoey

I believe Collingwood have about 14-15 cups, and were a bee's d*ck away from getting another one with him a couple of years back.

I think St Kilda’ co-dependents (i.e. the AFL, and associated staff that now work with us) and cancel culture in general (i.e. Who was the one responsible for bringing him to the club?) have agendas that don’t necessarily align with success on the ladder.

Otherwise, I would be focusing on his injury record. We don’t need another 26 year old with bad hammies, back problems etc.


You're quite brilliant Shane, yeah..terrific!

We couldbecome a rehabilitation club for misfits. Get Gooey, charm Toby, beg Dusty, offer them all greater anonymity within a club packed with other miscreants unable to bend to the whims of the virtue signalling mindset corrupting victoria and the afl. Offer them some relief from the hypocritical bullying of the holier than thou brigade that dominates modern mainstream and social media.

My leaning is a hard no, but mainly because I can't stand him. T but on the other hand, he is exactly the player we require. And what I can't stand is more so his profile, as I , like most, don't know him.
There are plenty in the league who have done much worse, drugs , jail, time etc. Hell we even have a high profile commentator convicted of sexual assault and hitting a women in the face with a glass! No problem there!
All seems to come down to the spin doctors in marketing.
If it's say Stengel and Geelong- nothing to see. Saints and Degoey- front page stuff.

De Goey is not going to make up for the talented kids - the 3 or 4 dynamic midfielders and playmakers - that we overlooked in the drafts, who have now become genuine stars.

But, if Hannebery's salary pays for De Goey .. . then, why not?

We are paying for our poor drafting ... and poor recruiting in general.

Is De Goey a good kid from a good family ... oh, that doesn't matter now, hey? :| :|

St Kilda midfielder Dan Hannebery has decided to enter 2022 on a significantly-reduced contract after renegotiating the final year of his deal, which was guaranteed until the end of next year.

He’s only 26 - hardly been injured

Danger went to Geelong at that age

Mate, I don’t give a rats if he f***s chickens if he helps us win finals!!!

Similarly to the treatment he orchestrated against the cricketers during the sand paper event, he is an authorised bully and needs to be called out for it.
Speaking of out… I’m wondering when Gerard will come ‘out’ of the the closet

Gerard is such a drama queen isn’t he?
