Jordan De Goey’s manager Ryan Vague believes the off-season drama is now behind them.
The Collingwood forward was ordered to undergo anger management and alcohol therapy sessions and will also be spending time with the Salvation Army, after pleading guilty to a harassment charge in the United States.
Vague however isn’t anticipating any further sanctions to come down on his client.
“We are not facing any (further) sanctions or any more from the footy club apart from the program put around him, the Salvos and a few other things we will work on,” Vague told SEN’s Dwayne’s World.
“He will comply and meet with the AFL, but at this stage, everyone is comfortable with, in some ways, his penance of a stand down and time away from the footy club is enough.
“I don’t see any extra sanctions will come and we have all got to that point (in) agreeance.”
Vague adds that De Goey has been training and keeping fit away from the club over summer.
“We’d love to say we could forget about the last three months, but he has been doing his training,” Vague said.
“He wants to have a big 2022 and I still believe the best version of Jordan De Goey is going to be this year upcoming.
“He is completely committed to that, so I hope he can go from strength to strength on the back of last year and really prove himself.”
De Goey has flashed huge upside across his career, but hasn’t yet put all the pieces together.
Vague says his client still hopes to become one of the best players in the competition.
“I definitely think he wants to be. Jordan can be anything Jordan wants to be,” he said.
“He has shown brilliance, but (his) consistency probably hasn’t been there, but I wouldn’t put a ceiling on it.
“I would love to have a situation mid-season where you say, ‘He’s flying and in Brownlow contention’, but he just needs to work hard, put it together more consistently.”
De Goey has played 118 career games for Collingwood since being selected with pick five in the 2014 National Draft.
