Totally underestimated - Surprisingly skilled, somehow good when it counted. Unique.

Loved big Jim. Lunatic but effective.
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

I remember saying once that we would never win a premiership with him in the team. Clearly I had to eat my words.

I had a mini-heart attack when I saw this thread next to Ginnivan’s serial killer one and thought this was about the other Manson.

I remember reading that the year before we recruited him, Manson took 17 marks in a senior game. That was what caught the eye of Collingwood.
I term the current Collingwood attack based strategy “Unceasing Waves” like on a stormy and windy day with rough seas. A Perfect Storm
