Prefer this kid to Grigg. Had courage, skill and poise.

Geez a classic case of a legend growing after they leave if there ever was one.

Being preferred to Grigg would hardly bestow legend status...

Courage skill and poise were not words I associated with Collins. Ordinary footballer.
FWIW Grigg is a better player no doubt.

Collins was a better class of dud than Grigg. Both failed at Carlton. Collins broke his leg, Grigg had no such excuse. Would've been delisted eventually had the Hack's Santa Claus aka Richmond Football Club not decided to come down Carlton's chimney.

I listened to the local radio coverage of the grand final for a little while and even the commentators there were questioning his ball use.  :lol

With their tanks and their bombs,
And their bombs and their guns.
In your head, in your head, they are crying...
