He was there because he wanted invited to the match after being awarded life membership earlier this year. I believe he chose the match because he had coached both.

It's all part of the transition 2.0.Mick is going to take over as senior coach and Bucks is going to take over the job of director of coaching(the job that MicK rejected in the first place) Smile

Tom Browne (Chan 7) now tweeting:


"The Pert / Collingwood parting is amicable. There is no angst. Gary will be a highly sought after executive

significant though. First part of the review. I understand he tendered resignation Friday. Footy the focus over weekend. Announcement today"

AFL website: "Collingwood will hold a media conference at 2pm, where it's expected Pert's departure will be made official."

Why does The Age have the word "resigns" in apostrophes?

Lets hope its the later, cause if it's just the former, than its a token beheading for the mob.
