Better get a lawyer, son. You better get a real good one. Could be game over for de goey and his mate, he’s 25 it might take some time to get to court and then there’s a possibility of time with bubba as a cell mate. He‘s really going to need some luck, might help if his mate takes responsibility but who knows what went on. Very, very glad he’s not a saints player it doesn’t seem to matter how hard clubs work on the off field stuff there’s always one.
 
The old 'Don't you know who I am?' routine as an AFL player doesn't work quite so well in the States.

Jordan, your contract is up end of year.
Here is your next contract.
$400 000 per year for 4 years, which includes the $300 00 per year payable to this young lady to convinces her to have the charges dropped.
Your alternative is we leave you there hung up to dry.

First thing, Collingwood will be paying the girl to not press charges.

UPDATE FROM THE AGE.....

Leading lawyer David Galbally, AM QC, told The Age that De Goey was facing jail time if found guilty of indecent assault. In Australia, indecent assault can carry a jail term of five years, while gross indecency can be more than 10 years. “If it’s any form of indecency, in terms of indecent assault, it carries a jail sentence. I would think judges have discretion, but they will want to send a message, he being a footballer, they will want to send a message, loud and clear,” Galbally said.

“The police will get every detail about him, every bit of background … and they will run it in court.”
Galbally, a former Collingwood board member, said the Magpies needed to find De Goey strong legal counsel.
De Goey, who has frustrated Magpies officials through the years by not keeping in shape during the off-season, has spent time during his official leave period training hard at The W Training Facility in southern California under his Monster Energy partnership.
The match-winning forward-midfielder is off contract next season and is expected to be one of the hottest free agents on the market, hoping to land a contract of more than $900,000 a season. However, Galbally said the Magpies could have grounds to sack De Goey, regardless of whether De Goey was found guilty.

“They would have grounds to terminate his contract if convicted,” he said.
“They would probably need to wait to see what happens in terms of what he does, if he pleads guilty or fights it, but, yes, this would be regarded as gross misconduct ... although with his past history, they could go ahead and do it and he would risk having everything aired if he was to bring a breach-of-contract claim. It would all be aired publicly. “If he said: ‘You [Magpies] couldn’t terminate my contract, you had no right to do it,’ they would say: ‘Yes, we did, for the following reasons’. Then if he issued legal proceedings and it went to court, Collingwood would run every indiscretion he has had. He would be made a public laughingstock, as it were, just to coin a phrase.”

Are you using double-quotes the same way the rest of society should?
