Apparently 1929 was scandal free

Before we were awash with TV —Social Media there may well have been drunk driving footballers—and pub brawling footballers but they were not highlighted

Today you cannot run nor find a place to hide—you will get found out

Sadly that just will not change so it’s what we are stuck with it as the $$ is king

Let us —no !! More important let the whole club focus on what we all want

For me it’s less about Eddies speel on how great we are to the community
cos Joe Average want a premiership—that’s it IMHO

Pretty sure everybody associated with the club in any way wants that. Unless our community activities are somehow detracting from that goal, what's the problem?

I asked young Joe, a 91-year-old neighbour of mine, if he remembered. And he said he did, we had an "incident" free pre-season way back in 1942 because the war was taking up all the papers. Joe said in the 1942 pre-season the lads got up to unbelievable shenanigans and mischief that would make your hair curl, but thanks to Adolf and the Japanese, they didn't make the papers.

It also wouldn't be a Collingwood pre-season without the media and a player manager discussing a star Pie's potential move to a rival club.

I'd say despite the media trying to create clickbait, 2020 has been incident free.

I don't count Beams bingle as an incident, just an accident.
