I don't understand how this is even an issue, all he did was grab him on the cheek. Happens in all walks of life, would obviously be different if he did it to a female or someone he didn't know but it's his team mate for christ sakes. Blokes do it, females do it to each other if they're friends. The media need to stop trying to get a story out of anything and everything
This is classic Collingwood. Proves zero leadership at that joint still. Collingwood came straight out and denied the player had done anything wrong. NOW it will be a story. All Collingwood had to say - "not a good look and will try and make sure does not happen again". Give the press their bone and the press will leave you alone. Eddie of course clearly still runs the media department. Collingwood itself has given life to this story, by a denial of wrongdoing. It is actually a 100% NON-EVENT, waste of time in media and reporting.
