Why would you? He just rambles on all day and doesn't answer the specific question. He has his own agenda and uses this platform to skirt around the issues. Just get him off the show forever. I'm sick of his rambling
Always fun when two people talk over the top of each other. One who can talk without really answering anything and one who does not stop asking questions that they know won’t be answered. That was hard work to watch.
I don't follow Collingwood but remember way back in the eighties when the Maggies were in a terrible state. Eddie was instrumental in putting them back on the road to success.
@@brettbrett9973 Yehr but really he doesnt have to answer to anybody about anything anymore does he? Dont know why he let them ask him anything to begin with. He's just a journo now!
@@brettbrett9973 hit the nail on the head the way Eddie ducks and weaves the questions. He just has his own agendas to present and will weave them into any and all questions presented to him. Love Collingwood. Can't stand him
Collinwood till he died! Don't care what anyone says! The fans got your back for life eddie you've always been passionate about the club and done so much for club and we all appreciate it.
I go for Collingwood and he can kiss my ass. He rambles on about nothing. He doesn't answer any questions. He just uses shows like this to address his own agendas
@@Marcelo-hf5xl Essendon no way ! They have had a great history with indigenous players ! I know Kickett didn't like Sheedy buts that's only because he was dropped for the Grand Final...
Eddie was crucified. How anyone can interpret him saying he was proud of the racism at the club instead of being proud that the club was actively trying to stamp out racism is absolutely perplexing. The people involved in his demise should be dead set ashamed of themselves. Love ya Edd Tiger supporter
I don’t think anyone thinks he is proud of the racism- we all know what he meant. But the report uncovered systemic racism and a history of avoiding blame by using spin- exactly what Eddie did here. His press conference was the time to apologize and acknowledge not try to turn it into a positive for Collingwood.
@@smallships the "report" done by indigenous activist Larissa Behrendt was always going to find "systematic racism" that's what she dose. When in reality, it's no different to what any other work place or football club has. Harry O'Brien gave himself the nickname chimp and had no problem with it. Until O'Brien had issues with Nathan Buckley not letting him address the players about gay marriage. But she chose to call it systematic racism.
@@so03 Nick name of "chimp" is well known, even Leon Davis has spoken about it. The rest, well anyone close enough to Collingwood knows it was Buckley not letting H address the team about gay marriage, that started this fake racism.
Eddie you should be proud of what you achieved at Collingwood. You have done more for the community, the down and outers, minorities, including races, than most. I was personally inspired by the convening of Christmas dinners, on Christmas day, over many years, which I attended with members of my mothers nursing home. You were there with your sons, leading the way. I salute you.
He still doesn't get it. "How did people take it the wrong way". It's got nothing to do with how people took it. It's about what you said. By having to take the step to have this report made, it does not show that your club is ahead of a seachange. In fact it only represents how far behind you are.
Most large businesses and organisations conduct reviews/reports on the values and beliefs or their employees, including their conduct when it comes to racism and discrimination of any kind. The point Eddie is trying to make is that they are ahead of the curve in terms of AFL clubs conducting such reviews (at least reviews that become public knowledge). The fact that there were instances of systematic racism found in the review doesn’t mean the other clubs are clean of the issue. It just means they haven’t done a review either (hence behind the “curve”). Hope that helps explain what I think he means. Either way, peace ✌️ enjoy the season 🏈
@@mattbrown2211 totally understand this was his intention, but it means nothing when the step was taken in (delayed response) to a number of allegations. Regardless I am happy Collingwood are dedicated to changing their culture. It’ll be better for football and Australia across the board. Enjoy the season mate!
Oh man. Biggest waggler out there. Answer the damn question. I thought he'd be more open and honest now and not full of fluff but it's just the same as usual
Eddie is proud, Collingwood is proud, Im proud to be a collingwood supporter, Do not underestimate our club, and do not underestimate his value to our club.
When he announced the findings of the racism report he said it was a proud day at the Collingwood football club. He didn’t word it all that well and people took great offence. It’s was a mistake and a bad choice of words but ultimately it was a disgrace he had to stand down and they he was treated.
"Proud" - the word is the issue, Eddie keeps using it and why can't he say he stuffed up, easy, yet he is like Fonzie from Happy days, he can't say he was "Wrorrrrrr....", "Wrroonnnn..." Pretty easy to say - "I was wrong" give it a go Eddie, get off the back foot.
The world has gone mad and there is no turning back inregards to this insanity that is regarded as the" new normal "...people are being thrown under the bus for thinking and speaking as people with their own thoughts and convictions..in my opinion Eddie has always spoken with conviction no matter the politics of right and wrong..very very sad state of affairs and even more dissapointing that people take offense to someones personal views...More to say but i wont..
Carro needs to allow Eddie to finish giving his answer to her questions. Very bloody annoying how she went about this interview and I'm not too sure what her motives were. Didn't she like the answer Eddie was giving?
A great man hung out to dry. The AFL system is good at this. It is more interested in virtual signaling and woke politics than its great servants of the game.
I think most clubs would be lucky to have a bloke hang around for 23 years and put in as much time as Eddie did with Collingwood. Id imagine that is increasingly rare. As usual, it was a media beat up. So over the media these days. Waste of space for the most part.
Eddie still doesn't get it. It's not for him to say "people took what I said the wrong way". The point is to be aware of how your comments could be perceived and adjust accordingly- you know, thinking outside of yourself a bit. I like Eddie in a lot of ways, but he has been too much part of the casual racist culture that he cant extricate himself from it.
Then who can say that? That sentence makes absolutely no sense. They're are bad actors (journos) who get paid to spin what public individuals say, he has no control over that. Maybe your the racist douchebag.
Its time footy classified got rid of all of these old fashioned reporters including Eddie we are all over them and have a look at the ratings nobody watches them any more including me
Caroline is so fixated on HER version of events. why is she still on air??? so many supporters despise her totally. always interrupting to sell her version. like Eddie said... I was there at that meeting.... but still she goes on and on... pls dump this witch of the AFL!!!
I like Eddie and Carolyn...well not so much. More about creating drama than dealing with the issues. It is easy to turn anything in drama if you try hard enough.
He's a pie till he dies is he ? He's from Broady I doubt when he was growing up he could find Collingwood with a map a compass or a Tom Tom. His brother is more honest he barracks for Essendon which is a bit closer and more familiar than collingwood.
You think he went because of one slip? I'd say it was one to many. He lasted 23 years, that's a long term. Guy has cocked up a lot, especially the last year.
@@charlesbawden5924 so you get some of what I mean, it wasn't one slip, it was many. The fact you may not see them as slips yourself and dismiss it as woke culture is irrelevant, in the greater scheme of things they are slips. He has also served a very long term with little on field success. I think he has been great for the club but it's time to move on. If we need a woke president to succeed then that's what we need to do, you can't take an eagle to a pigeon race and complain when you get kicked out. I agree woke sucks, but you roll with the times or get left behind.
@@charlesbawden5924 Get out of the 1950's, every work place is like that and not just in Australia but around the world. If you've survived in your workplace with that mentality then you've been lucky. RESPECT is all anyone asks for in their workplace, a joke here and there is OK until it goes too far. Under Eddie's and Buckley's watch it went too far.. unchecked. In most workplaces this incident would've been dealt with in an instance and not even made it to HR. It seems you like to throw the word WOKE around a fair bit.
@@hoofhearted244 nah mate, its his messaging is a joke, the direction of the game has passed him, I don't like the things he says, I didnt like him having a TV platform and also being a GM for a club it unfair to the rest of the clubs. I think he has a rough relationship with his coach, and they have lost good players because of him. He's not good for his club or the game generally.
Eddie man-speaks throughout this.
Any chance journalists could wait for their subjects to answer questions these days??

Eddie was proud of the clubs intention to work on this issue. When the other 17 clubs have done a similar report, then criticise.
They don't need to they haven't had complaints!
Unlike Collingwood aka KKK
St Kilda was deemed racist same goes for Essendon & Hawthorn.

Racism at Collingwood and Eddie stuffing it up - what a shock.
Shut up Carro!!!!
He was proud that the initiative was taken. Not proud about the contents of the report.
Eddie just seems like a decent guy. He's just passionate and proud of his club
Decent ?
Caro cops some heat but atleast she doesn’t pull any punches. Good on Eddie for taking ownership and making himself available
Shock early departure after 23 years. Journalists too busy trying to sensationalise they forget to check if the sentence makes sense 😂
Geez he could talk & spin McGuire.... bloke should go into politics
