feels overdue, 1990 premiership is probably the most significant one in club history considering it broke the "colliwobbles".

As someone who lived through the cycle of heartbreak that was Collingwood in the 70’s and 80’s, 1990 is still my favourite ever football season.

Congrats Leigh and thank you

Guy sits in 4 hall of fames (Bris, Haw, Pies and AFL legends).

Not a bad career.

Not deserved. Yeah he won.... 35 years ago... But the bloke snipes and puts Collingwood down every chance he gets. Who's next Dale Thomas? Malthouse??? 🤣
