I encourage everyone to watch the spirit of Collingwood documentary hosted by Lou once more before tomorrow's game. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=n3T5Wy1pqV0

Just such a unique person. He was Collingwood but also all of football at the same time. He was passionately melbournian, but was beloved by all Australians. Northern states only knew him thru wide world of sports with Tangles but they loved him. Such a fun loving cheeky bloke. Loved the club but never shied from poking fun at the club either.

Lou and Ron are back together again no doubt... rest in peace
It was excellent. Really worth watching.
Yes a good watch but last time I checked it needed to be uploaded again with the correct aspect ratio. Surprised actually as Gezza has tonnes of great stuff.

League teams is great too but IIRC the youtube vid has none of the actual match footage. The 2x DVD is cheap as chips - well worth the modest outlay and you get to watch some old school footy.
