He's a former premiership player. 1968. Played 149 games. Imagine that's the reason.

Ian Collins wore number 19 and presented it to Sumner.
Geoff Southby wore number 20 and presented it to Lachie Plowman.

He used the club to further his career when it was on it's knees. Promised the world, got what he wanted and moved on. Didn't even bother to show up to the handover. He's as un-Carlton as you can get. A walking dogs act if you will.

Could not agree more.

Because collo is a premiership player, brilliant carlton administrator and former president. ...if trigg and the judge had any sense they should be chewing his ear getting up to speed with carlton and how to run the club properly...

Probably not given how it ended and how he left our club but we did play in 5 Grand Finals during his era for 2 flags. I'd take that.Led the club brilliantly for a decade or more, fk'ed it up big time at the end.

Collo kicked out elliott who had to be removed. For that collo saved carlton. ..we were insolvent under elliott and mathieson wanted to hand the keys back to wipe off the debt but collo sent us to etihad for the cash we needed to stay solvent..collo told the players to take a pay.cut to save the club....note.pratt was no where to be seen during this point. ..
