Marvellous news. Congratulations to the pies for the difficult and necessary work in the “truth telling and listening” as part of the “Do Better” investigation/report assisting our Indigenous players and assisting all of us. Magnificent to have Leon Davis and Andrew Krakouer back in the fold.

Go Pies

I hope H sees this that the club wants to work with them, not against them, and it paves the way for reconciliation. Long way to go still but it’s another big step to a better present and future for indigenous and Players of Colour. I’m rapped to see Leon back at the club.

Great to see both Leon and Andrew back in the fold and great to see the commitment toward implementing the findings from the Do Better report.

Neither Andrew or Leon would have agreed if they thought this was a half arsed process.

This is such great news.I’m so glad that they’ve settled their differences with the club and agreed to work with the club on such an important issue.It’s the best possible outcome for everyone involved,

To the mods, understand about copying the story from the club site, I received the full text in an email from the club. Can I post a copy of an email?

Fabulous to have Leon and Andrew back at our club. I'd also like the club to get them involved in some skills sessions with our players.

Great news, welcome back lads. So, i guess this kind of leads that stirrer who now resides in Los Angles out on a limb now, on his lonesome.

I believe Collingwood Football Club is a totally different place

Different people at the helm
