Geez wept.
" premiership defender Heritier Lumumba made a cryptic farewell speech at the Copeland Trophy function on Friday night, saying the club played a significant role in making him the person he is today.
Lumumba, who finished fourth in the best-and-fairest, has requested a trade to Melbourne after a successful but at times controversial 10-season, 199-game career with the Magpies.
“Collingwood has allowed me to define my character and also to find the true meaning of my true name ... which means the prince, the one who will have the last laugh, and (who) is gifted,” Lumumba
The 27-year-old said Collingwood had helped to define his character since 2005, saying Nathan Buckley and Nick Maxwell had played key roles in his early football development.
“The thing that I hold greatest to my heart are my values, which are also congruent with the values of the Collingwood Football Club, and the number one most important value that this football club has is community.
“Back in the Great Depression, the Collingwood Football Club opened up its doors to the poorest of people; it gave them hope; it gave them shelter; it gave them food."

I think we should keepit to educate those young and not aware of Collingwoods legacy.
Additionally, the world needs to know about ladumber's status as a prince.

When you name yourself a translation of the word 'prince' ones ability to self rationalize is pretty much not gonna happen.
Precious and tickets on himself. But to most, irrelevant weird an average footballer.
