Chapter 1: What is the Magpie Nest and how does it help the community?
But this Saturday, Collingwood's magpie nest is back at the G, and I'm looking forward to speaking to Geordie about what this is about and raising awareness for Collingwood and the cafe looking after some vulnerable people that need it. Jordan Ngoi is his name. Thanks for your time. No worries, guys. Good to be on.
Can you tell us a little bit about the nest and what you have done in helping provide meals to those that need it over the years, Geordie?
Yeah, well, I've actually been lucky. I don't know about lucky enough, but in the past I've had a couple of suspensions and it's ended me up at the magpie nest. To be honest, it's been one of the best things for me. It's just understanding that other side of life and There's people going without at the moment, so this game's a great opportunity to raise some money.
you know, it's going to a fantastic cause and it's putting meals on the table, which is the most important thing.
Yeah, so they're going to host 500 of the cafe's clients at the game against Port Adelaide on Saturday. Provides a meal and a place to watch the footy. 119,000 meals were served last year, Kingy. So just a $10 donation provides a meal to someone doing it tough. Check that out on Collingwood's website. Hey, let's talk some footy because you yourself are in pretty sparkling form.
The body looks good and You're in good shape.

Chapter 2: How is Jordan De Goey performing this season?
Yeah, I feel like I am at the moment, which has been nice. Obviously, you know, it's been a fair while since I've had a good little sin of footy that I've put together. So for me too, it's a bit of confidence base. I feel like my confidence is back up. I feel like, you know, I can run with some of the best now and and that's about doing it week in, week out.
So it's turned into a bit of consistency, and that's what I want throughout the rest of the year.
Geordie, it's great to hear. We don't hear a lot of you speaking publicly, and I think it's quite refreshing, actually. I've read a couple of things about you lately, how you don't tend to take in the outside noise like maybe you did a few years back.
Yeah, definitely. I think, you know, when you're young, growing up, all you want is the fame, and you want everyone to know your name, and then... The older you get, the more settled you get and you're just happy doing your thing and winning because obviously you're playing the sport to win.
So, yeah, for me, it's, you know, I'm a bit more settled now, a bit more mature, just happy to do my bit and support what the team needs. So, yeah, it's definitely changed in that regard.
This is always the discussion when we look at players like yourself because you don't necessarily dominate for 120 minutes, but the 20 minutes of domination from players like you in that role you play separate games. How do you describe how you play? Are you a forward that sometimes goes on ball or are you an on-ball that can play forward?
It's a million-dollar question. I think everyone wants to know this. But I think, to be honest, a lot of people in my position are probably – also confidence-based footballers. So the more opportunities to get your hands on the ball earlier makes it a lot easier. So for me, it's probably on ball, then go forward, get a few touches in, start to get that confidence up.
And then once you go forward, you feel like you're ready to make an impact because you're in the game. But obviously, this year, it's been a bit scarce going forward. So when you do go down there, you've got to definitely make use of your chances.
It's been an interesting year because you're maximising what you've got, but it's leaving you just short. You've had the buy. Did you catch up as a group in terms of what you want to achieve out of the year and how you're going to go about, I don't know, trying to push for, I guess, a wild card berth, Geordie?

Chapter 3: What is Jordan De Goey's preferred position on the field?
Oh, for sure. He's a class player. He's done some amazing things at Brisbane. So, yeah, I don't know if he'll enjoy the Melbourne weather, but other than that, I think he'll fit in nicely.
Do you have a role to play in that? How far does it go at Collingwood? Is there a time where they say, hey, look, can you get on the phone or can you make contact? Do you have a role in any of that?
Not particularly on my end. I think, you know, there's... There's a couple of blokes, probably Nick's probably one of them. He's probably talking to everyone, ringing everyone, you know, trying to offer him contracts himself. But not on my end. I think, you know, at the end of the day, you know, players pretty much know either if they want to come or they don't want to come.
So, yeah, but definitely he'd be a great fit. So lucky for listening, mate. Come on, get on down.
Yeah.
just one final one from me you're you're out of contract i think at the end of next year um and there was some sort of rumors about trade stuff but are you sitting down with the club looking to extend now not many players go into that last year of their deal and player in your position wouldn't usually do that is it have those discussions started uh not that i know about um obviously uh my brother-in-law is actually my manager so
We speak briefly, but it's honestly not about that. For me right now, it's just playing the best footy I can because that's how I can support the team. And what happens after that will happen after that. So, yeah, I'm just going to continue to keep trying to contribute to the team and play my role and hopefully get some more wins.
Is it Collingwood for life for you or not?
Yeah, obviously, that's the plan, mate. Like you said, I started at the club. I would love to finish at the club. But, you know, the footy world is a strange landscape at times. So I'll just do my best for what I can for the team, and that's all I can do.

Chapter 4: How does Jordan De Goey handle external pressures and media scrutiny?
How many times have you watched that goal from the centre bounce at the end? The goal that won you the grand final, the handball over the top from Dacos to Degoe from 50. How many times have you watched it?
Personally, sitting at home by myself, not too many. But... Come on. You can see it, don't you? I don't look up, you know, Geordie to go, he's going grand final. You're clutching at shores if I'm doing that. But I do see it a fair bit, you know, in highlight packages and stuff like that.
So it's always nice because I was saying to someone the other day, it's all those little moments in a footy career where, you know, you're putting in the work that no one sees and doing all these little extra things for a moment in time just like that. So, you know, for me, it's just gratification. I was stoked to be able to
nail that goal in that particular time and obviously be a premiership player.
So there's that one and then there's the other side of the coin. King's birthday, you have the chance, the set shot to take the lead late. Do those sort of things sit with you for a bit or are you able to just step through, okay, skill execution gone wrong, move on, turn the page?
Yeah, no, that one stung. I felt like I'm pretty good in those moments throughout my career and I was just disappointed. I, you know, went through my goal-kicking routine and just got it wrong, and I pretty much, you know, watch the vision after the game. I know exactly kind of what's happened. So, you know, I prefer to be in those situations and miss and not be in those situations at all.
So I'm giving myself the opportunity. I know what went wrong, and this week's all about rectifying that and getting it right.
Hey, mate, thanks for joining us on Fireball this morning. Come on again, Geordie. You were brilliant. Cheers. Thank you. Collingwood's magpie nest is back at the G. So good to hear him, actually. As you said, doesn't do a whole lot of media. Donate a meal and double your impact. Visit Collingwood FC's website. Collingwood doing good for a lot of vulnerable people. Three changes for them.
