I'm not really back, just wanted to read some people's opinions on this and there was no thread, so I'll make one then go back into my cave.

We need to erase him from the club. I literally mean removing all references to him and removing him from 2010 paintings etc.

Tell him we shove our review where the sun don’t shine.

Let’s start by keeping this forum quality and not mention the person

I guess we won’t be getting Lumumba Junior as a father-son pick in future then?

Maybe the club was wise not to issue the apology Harry and the media demanded? It's probably easier to sue someone for failing in their duty of care if they've acknowledged fault.

I have mixed feelings about this. Part of me is why not, part of me is yeah sure, part of me is why Collingwood (again) so I don’t actually have a position because I’m not clear that I fully understand all the issues from his perspective.

One can’t be subject to racism if that’s what it is in a workplace. No way and none of that would be supported by any of us. This is 21st Century Australia.

Whether it’s opportunistic or not is another matter but if it is shown it did occur / there was an unsafe working environment then as employers there is a responsibility to the employee to provide a safe working environment.

Didn't he threaten the Melbourne football club at one stage about a payout for the last year of his contract that he wasn't able meet?

Full if self interest this bloke.

Something doesn't sit right with this bloke.

However if he wins, Collingwood FC will be in financial trouble again like the times past.

All true but there has to be corroborated evidence for any chance of a win in court. Some Advocates say that these are the hardest matters to prove beyond reasonable doubt. Good luck to Harry if the allegations are proved to be correct. The thing I detest most in life is any form of racism towards anyone, irrespective of who they are. Totally infuriates me no end.
