Well, by now everybody knows about Collingwood’s political uncertainty.
Mark Korda is the incumbent. Jeff Browne would seem to be the challenger. 40-year member David Hatley is spearheading a petition that will trigger an EGM and spill the board.
The last time I recall such a thing happening was in 1982, when the New Magpies challenged the Collingwood board. The incumbents were traditionalists. Their purse strings were tight. The New Magpies wanted to spend big, recruit big and haul the club into the new age to compete with clubs recruiting heavily to buy success.
