Saw him with Eddie in the Pies' rooms after the match. Does anyone know if he's at Collingwood in any official capacity now?

Paul was a sensational player for us, and a genuine star. He was a mix of speed, skill and toughness. I can't remember the circumstances of how we lost him to Sydney, but seems crazy looking back that we let him go. Nice to see him back at Pie-land, even if it was for a visit.

i thought he and Nathan Buckley didnt get along and he refused to play in the same team as Nathan (see, everything literally is Nathan's fault - even the decision to persist with Maynard when everyone else thought he was a dud!).

Seriously, we used him (and Mal Michael) as part of the bait to land Clement, Holland, Molloy, Steinfort, and pick 37 (Guy Richards). Here is the details of the multi party trade:

Paul Williams was traded to Sydney for pick No. 8 and No. 39. Pick No. 8 was then on traded to Fremantle for Brodie Holland, James Clement and pick No. 22. Mal Michael and pick No. 22 was traded to Brisbane for Jarrod Molloy and pick 44. Pick 44 was then on traded to Geelong for Carl Steinfort. Ricky Olarenshaw and pick No. 39 was traded to North Melbourne for pick No. 37.

He was interviewed before the game, just probably brought back for the night as a past player.

He chased the money and went north rather than Collingwood getting rid of him. I know someone who said very early in the year 2000 that he would be leaving for Sydney at the end of the year. They believed he did a deal when we played in Sydney

Did anyone see the Paul Williams highlights video on Collingwood media.

The first one at the Gabba when Bucks kicks it in and he goes straight up the middle and it lands just before the centre off hands out the back Williams crumbs the ball and takes a couple of bounces and kicks a goal from about 60m.

It was a 2 kick coast to coast goal................Aahhhhhhhh they were the days.

2 kicks these days and we are still in the back pocket looking for a switch back to the other back pocket.

One highlight of his that I recall was that he gave the finger to the very slow Tony Liberatore as he ran away from Liberatore with the ball

I saw Chris Tarrant in the cafe at Holden Centre last Thursday, so maybe the plan was to have a few ex-Collingwood players back at the club before the Hawthorn game.

Chris Tarrant is working at the club, probably why he was at the cafe.
Both he and Ben Johnson have roles but I am not sure what they are.

At 3/4 time of home games, our sponsor United Petroleum have a competition where a Collingwood supporter has a chance to win some cash if they catch a handball, mark a short kick and mark a long kick. The person handballing and kicking is an ex player. Willo was the ex player on Saturday night. Daics was the ex player at the Carlton home game.

If they want to make this more challenging for the contestant you can get Adams to jog out of the huddle and kick the ball.

The scuttlebutt regarding Paul Williams and Buckley allegedly involved a woman. Allegedly Buckley advise the club to make a choice and said it's either me or him.

Good to see Shane Morwood's name there.

If Nick's had been around in the late 80's he would have been the whipping boy on the board at the time, given the abuse he used to cop from Pies supporters in his first season or so with us. He became a gun and had the last laugh.

Yes! Gold!
If Adams was kicking, you'd probably need to win a car if you mark it.
I thought for a moment you were going to say it's Paul Williams in the "Mr Pumpy" suit.

Did you think Gold was a bad example?
