[StillAtLarge]

Reminds me of this treasured moment

 

[reubski23]

Systems and Processes are racist!

What systems do Collingwood use? Do i need to get rid of XLS & PPT?

Reminds me of this treasured moment

Can't like this enough.

 

[Boxhead_31]

Going to be a textbook case for future training on how not to run a press conference this one.

"Proud to be here"
"Our sponsors are real happy with what we are doing" but they don't want the visual of them behind us today.

 

[Mofra]

Noted proud campaigner is Eddie, the hat fits

He does look like a Proud Boy

 

[Saucery]

Got to wonder if Collingwood deep state elites did this to unseat ED the Head and destroy any chance of his cronies protecting him from the wrath of the AFL being dragged into court by the big H, which will cost a small nations income in out of court settlements.

 

[Strange Cat]

He does look like a Proud Boy

I wonder if he will snitch on Buckley now

"Our Guernsey black and white stripes coming together is a powerful image"

LMAO

then saying those who feel sleighted need to get over it? (Not sure if I heard that right).

"This is a play for humanity" calm down m8.

 

[Jimmybob]

Sorry Ed, there's already clubs leading the way on these issues! Maybe you should follow their lead and learn a thing or two from them when it comes to tackling racism and empowering the indigenous and all other cultures.

 

[Woody15]

Haha * me. What a load of overdramatic wank, Eddie

 

[MC Extra Dollop]

Sorry for considering the motives of who is conducting the review.

I'll say five Welcome to Acknowledgement of Countries as penance.

Pies will be pumping them out this season.

FTFY... assuming you aren't a Traditional Owner.

 

[tandino]

How does an organisation in 2021 trip over the racism bar.

Its such a low hurdle to get over.

 

[Richard Pryor]

A caution to "Think of the racists" is a weird note to end the presser on.

 

[Strange Cat]

Being serious for a moment , how could you possibly think that with a leaked report about systemic racism at your club would be an appropriate time to wheel out a press conference to say how proud you are of the report...:just can not grasp why Eddie thought he could spin it that way

 

[Obeanie1]

Collingwood is not the only club where this has occurred, we are the first to acknowledge it. Would have happened at the majority of AFL and NRL clubs.

How many other clubs have ex players taking them to court over systemic racism?

Stop being an Eddie and deflecting the facts that we know with 'fake news' you are making up.

 

[Boxhead_31]

Whole lot of words spoke by that panel during that presser and none of them addressed what was in the report

 

[Richard Pryor]

Old mates left his camera on

 

[Beerfish]

"Our Guernsey black and white stripes coming together is a powerful image"

LMAO

 

[Satan]

Who the fu** is Collingwood’s PR advisor. Aside from the actual realities of the last few months, they couldn’t have played them any less brainless. The stupidity in their hopeless spin attempts is laughable.

what a chance for kayleigh and her folder to get a new gig

 

[Byron_Clanger]

There was a whole lot of patting on the back for being found out that there's systematic racism going on at the club...what the hell was I even watching...

 

[Colonial]

My AFL club's president has Golliwogs in his (private) office

In another post I pointed that out.

Collingwood is not the only club where this has occurred, we are the first to acknowledge it. Would have happened at the majority of AFL and NRL clubs.

Think you'll find a lot of other clubs have already acknowledged it and have taken steps to correct it.
All without a former player taking the club to court over their inaction to improve

And I thought the mid-season, post-camp press conference featuring the now sacked Brett Burton
