Just wanted to say a big thank you to Heritier Lumumba for 199 games at the Mighty Pies. Although sometimes a bit of a quirky character, had the class and respect to attend the B&F even though he knew he wouldn't playing in 2015 with the Black and White.

Congratulations and good luck with the future.

Thankyou Lumumba for your contribution to this club. Always remember the times you get past three or more players and then kick the ball long. Good luck at Melbourne.

Thanks H!! A wonderful player for the Pies at his peak but it's best for both parties for a change. Always welcome back!!! :) He'll be good for Melbourne.


I tipped H to be Australian of the Year 4 years back. Not saying it will be during his AFL career .... just at some point when he finds his niche.

Many fond memories. Not bad for a young bloke who came right across the country to give his best shot with the biggest club in the land.

A different cat with a massive heart. Not many of us have to grow up under the glare of such a massive spotlight. You've certainly added some vibrant threads to the living tapestry that is the Collingwood Football Club.

Seriously underrated around here. Premiership, All-Australian, 5 times in the top 5 of the B&F. People often overlook his on field achievements because of the s**t he pulls off it. Seriously good player in our time with us and its sad he didn't reach the 200 game barrier. He deserved it.
