Stepping down immediately.

He has made a lot of mistakes when it comes his biases on a whole range of issues.

Nonetheless, it is a shame that someone who has spent 25 years in a volunteer capacity to make his club a success and made such a difference to football is going out on such a low note.

Sure he has feathered his own nest along the way but still he has contributed a lot on so many fronts.

I agree with the sentiment. Unfortunately for Eddie he was a very poor listener.

And he's gone. What a fantastic day for footy. Good riddance 


Say what you will about him.

When we were on our knees, he gave us the gate takings for Queens Bday for more than 5 years in a row..

 

But lets never forget his crowning moment!!

 

 

Absolute witch hunt claims another victim. Don't dare make a mistake or be imperfect.

 

Sad day.

Should have been shown the door after the King Kong comment. 
He still doesn’t get it


Well, at least C'wood now has some chance of developing a culture befitting the 21st century.

Just one little slip-up and everyone piled on.

At least he's still got hosting Millionaire to get him out of the house.

Nope, not even close. Made a massive misstep with Goodes, oversaw a club that was proven to be racist after that, and then called it ‘a proud day’. 

He has lost his ability to read the room. They had no choice but to push him out. 
 

 

 

Its understandable that people will come for Eddie, he is a big boy, he is answerable for his mistakes. I Wonder when the people that he has helped, done a lot for, raised money for, made their life better will step up and go into bat for him. 

Hope they do, because there will be lots of them.

They've been going into bat for him over and over and over already.  There's only so far you can go on the plaudits for being the person sitting in the chair that decides who gets the goodies.

Have Collingwood really been that much more generous than any other club, or have they just done a lot more publicity about it?

Just one at a time.

 


Watch out Albenese. Eddie is comming for your job.

Surprised it took this long. There would have been a queue of sponsors lining up at The Holden Centre demanding his resignation.

That's what's got him in the end and Nike would have been at the front of the queue.

 

Too many mistakes over too many years any one of which would have caused anyone other then Eddie to be sacked.

Has cheapened footy with his numerous conflicts of interest as a caller and commentator and his uncontrolled mouth.

No loss.

That funny Nike's biggest name of all time don't mind redneck buying his air Jordans

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
