1999 – Collingwood Forever https://forever.collingwoodfc.com.au The complete history of Australia's greatest sporting club Tue, 30 Jan 2024 23:13:09 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.0.21 ANZAC Day debutants https://forever.collingwoodfc.com.au/anzac-day-debutants/ Thu, 21 Apr 2016 09:41:01 +0000 http://forever.collingwoodfc.com.au/?p=10412 By: Glenn McFarlane, Herald Sun journalist and Collingwood historian.

Collingwood has had a rich tradition of blooding young players in finals, with the likes of Len Thompson, Rene Kink and Ian Cooper among a long list of Magpies to play their first games in September.

The modern-day extension has been the annual ANZAC Day clash with Essendon, which rapidly became the biggest home-and-away match of the season almost from its inaugural contest in 1995.

Nine players have made their debut on April 25 in the years since.

Here are the stories of those first-game ANZAC Day Magpies.

JASON WILD, 1995

Jason Wild’s journey took him from a footballer playing in front of a few hundred people at Collingullie-Ashmont, in NSW to a debutant playing in the first and most famous of the ANZAC Day matches before almost 95,000 fans.

That all happened in the space of a few years.

Wild had been drafted by the Magpies as pick No. 39 in the 1993 National Draft, and after Collingwood struggled in the first four rounds of 1995 due to serious injuries, he was a surprise selection for the much-anticipated clash.

Collingwood had lost almost 400 games of experience heading into the game when Gary Pert, Mark Richardson, Brad Rowe and Tony Francis were all ruled out with injury.

Nineteen-year-old Wild took his chance, graduating off the back of some solid form in the reserves.

That inaugural clash ebbed and flowed throughout the match, with the lead changing on numerous occasions. The packed MCG crowd made a cacophony of noise, as loud as most Grand Finals, with few spare spots remaining.

The second youngest player on the field that day behind Aaron James, Wild only had a limited impact on the game, having seven disposals. He kicked a behind and laid two tackles during the dramatic draw.

He would go onto play 70 matches in Black and White, originally wearing No.27, before later in his career taking over Tony Shaw‘s No.22 when he became a close-checking tagger with toughness but questionable kicking.

CRAIG JACOTINE, 1999

Eighteen-year-old Craig Jacotine received a fax (remember them?) from his old TAC Cup team Dandenong coaches when he was named for his first game for Collingwood.

It read: “Jaco, the grass is green, the goal posts are white, so what’s new? We won’t wish you good luck; good players make their own ability. Well done, enjoy the experience. Make it the first of many.”

But this wasn’t just any old game. This was the fifth Collingwood-Essendon ANZAC Day match, and it would be the biggest stage that Jacotine would play on during his short stint in black and white.

Before his debut, he said: “I’m looking forward to it, but I’ll have to try to block it (the crowd) out when I get out there, if that’s possible.”

Jacotine was listed as “lively” during his ANZAC debut as he slotted through a nice goal from the boundary line, which cut into Essendon’s lead. Wearing the No.38 jumper, it would be one of 11 possessions he would have.

The Pies trailed for most of the day – and by as much as 38 points at quarter-time – but they kicked four goals to one in the last term to go down by only eight points.

Sadly, for Jacotine, it was not the “first of many”. He would play 14 games in that wooden-spoon season of 1999 and a further two late the following year before being delisted by Collingwood.

CAMERON CLOKE, 2004

David Cloke played his 66th game on ANZAC Day, 1977 – for Richmond against Collingwood. The match was Tom Hafey‘s first game as coach of Collingwood, having joined from Richmond, and it attracted 92,436 fans.

Twenty-seven years to the day, Cloke’s middle son, Cameron, played his maiden AFL match on football’s most emotional day.

Cloke, who had been selected under the father-son rule in 2002, became the sixth Magpie to debut in 2004, following David King, Luke Mullins, Guy Richards, Bo Nixon and Tom Davidson.

His elevation came off the back of successive losses to Brisbane and Fremantle, and only one Collingwood win from its first four games, as well as the absence of forward Chris Tarrant.

Before the game, Anthony Rocca said Cloke’s inclusion would give the Magpies a shake-up in terms of endeavour as the 19-year-old was a hard-working, sometimes hard-hitting young player.

The Age detailed: “Collingwood will make a small yet crucial demand of Cloke: simply, that the teenager spend his AFL debut forcing the forward-line contests that the Magpies have sorely missed in the past three weeks.”

Cloke tried as hard as he could, but could manage only six disposals in the Magpies’ 33-point loss. His older brother, Jason, fared a little better, having 17 possessions in his 48th game.

Wearing the No.33 jumper that his father had worn, Cameron Cloke would go onto play 21 games with Collingwood – including the following year’s ANZAC Day clash – before other stints at Carlton and Port Adelaide.

TRAVIS CLOKE, 2005

While Cameron Cloke struggled in his Anzac Day debut, his younger brother Travis was named as one of the Magpies’ best players in the corresponding game the following season.

The 18-year-old started the match on the bench, but was thrust into the action early, and didn’t seem to be out of place when the heat of the game was on.

He went on to have 16 possessions in the Magpies’ 14-point loss, saying afterwards: “It was pretty exciting, but a bit of a letdown losing to Essendon.”

“When you’re calling for the ball, the man you’re calling for just doesn’t hear you.

“I didn’t mind the speed of the game, the physicality – I always love that – it’s the decision-making (that is different), you only have a split second,”

The Herald Sun described his debut as “showing all the hallmarks of a future player of note.”

His raking, long left foot kicks were noted by the fans, and he said he hadn’t followed his father David’s questionable kicking action.

“Dad had a double-handed drop . . . it was a bit unusual but the times have changed and the techniques have changed and all the coaches are there to help you,” Travis said.

“Cam’s a lovely kick of the ball and always has been. Jason’s been a bit shaky … We’ve never played all together. I’ve played with Cam before and Jason before, but never all three of us.”

The Clokes didn’t have to wait long to make it happen. All three played in the following week’s game against St Kilda at the MCG.

But Cameron and Jason would eventually be moved on from the club, even though Travis remains at the club to this day.

SHARROD WELLINGHAM, 2008

Before ANZAC Day, 2008, the football world – and many Collingwood fans – knew Sharrod Wellingham only as the young player who cost the Magpies their $500,000 TAC sponsorship after a drink-driving incident.

After Collingwood’s 73-point win over Essendon that day, Wellingham showed himself as a footballer with real potential.

The 19-year-old midfielder had 17 disposals and laid four tackles in the club’s big win as a late inclusion to the young Magpies’ outfit, missing Anthony Rocca and Scott Burns.

Wellingham was one of five young replacements – none of them older than 21 – who had collectively played a grand total of 37 games.

“Eighteen-year-olds were carrying guns and facing enemy fire once,” Mick Malthouse said. “You’re never too young to perform for your team.”

Wellingham’s family had flown in the game, catching the red-eye from Perth, when they had been tipped off about his likely debut.

He had visited the Shrine of Remembrance on the Tuesday before the clash.

“The Shrine is just over the road, it was an opportunity for the players, the whole club, to go and pay their respects and have a little more of an understanding of what ANZAC Day is all about,” Malthouse said.

Wellingham said after the game: “I wasn’t as nervous as I thought I would be. I was more anxious than nervous.”

Two years later, he would be an important part of the 2010 premiership side. But his time at Collingwood lasted only for 92 games before he was traded to West Coast in 2013.

BRENT MACAFFER, 2009

The symmetry was perfect. First gamer Brent Macaffer replaced the injured Alan Didak in the 2009 ANZAC Day clash, and ended up joining the same “club” in which Didak was already a member.

That is, the “first kick, first goal” club.

Macaffer won the nod as the late replacement for Didak ahead of Wellingham and Anthony Corrie, and made an immediate impact early on the match against Essendon.

Collingwood kicked the first goal of the game, via Anthony Rocca, and then four minutes and 18 seconds into the match 21-year-old Macaffer stepped up to score a major with his maiden kick.

The Magpies led the game by 15 points at the first change, but scores were locked together at half-time after an Essendon second-term rally. The Bombers opened a 17-point lead 20 minutes into the third quarter before a late goal to Leon Davis cut the margin back. It was a nine-point deficit for Collingwood heading into the last term.

Collingwood kicked four of the first five goals of the quarter, and when Davis kicked his second goal, plus three behind came from Leigh Brown (two) and Martin Clarke, the margin was 14 points at the 24-minute-mark.

Goals to Leroy Jetta and Ricky Dyson kept the change of a miracle Essendon revival alive, and that’s what happened on a greasy, wet afternoon, as David Zaharakis chimed with the match winning goal at the 30-minute-mark.

Macaffer (11 disposals) had experienced one of the biggest moments of his career only to have his first rendition of Good Old Collingwood Forever snatched off him at the death knell.

KIRK UGLE, 2012

In AFL football, there is a fine line between elation and desolation. For Collingwood debutant Kirk Ugle, the last 45 seconds of the 2012 ANZAC Day match stands as testament to this.

The time was ticking down on Ugle’s first game, and with less than a minute remaining in the game, Collingwood was clinging gamely to a five-point lead after holding a slight ascendancy for most of the clash before 86,932 fans. What happened next was pure theatre.

Brent Stanton put the Bombers in front with a snapped goal with only two minutes and two seconds left on the clock. But just as the game looked headed in Essendon’s direction, it was left Collingwood’s Jarrad Blair to get the ball onto his boot in the goal square. A goal review confirmed the decision was the correct one.

Only 80 seconds were remaining, and Ugle could almost taste his first success as a Magpie.

But when Kyle Hardingham sent the ball into the half forward zone, Ugle found himself in the right place at the right time. He took the mark and then took his time getting the ball back into play.

The roar of the crowd meant he couldn’t hear the umpire call play on, and he was run down from behind. For a fleeting moment, it appeared as if that moment might cost Collingwood the game.

To his relief, and the relief of Magpies fans, the Bombers were unable to capitalise on the mistake in the time remaining, and Collingwood still had a one-point advantage when the final siren sounded.

He celebrated in the rooms with his mother, and three sisters, as well as his partner and daughter.

“I hadn’t played in front of a big crowd like that before,” he said. “The biggest crowd I’ve played in front of would probably be just over 15,000.”

And the Herald Sun captured the moment when the 172cm Ugle hugged 200cm ruckman Darren Jolly in the afterglow of the victory. He only had five touches, but held his spot for the following week, but would play only three matches for his career in Black and White before being delisted at the end of 2012.

MASON COX, 2016

Making your AFL debut in an ANZAC Day game is a big story. But when you’ve come from the other side of the world to do it, the story gets even bigger. And when you then goal with your first kick in the opening quarter, well, … it’s just the stuff of fairytales.

And that’s the way it turned out with our giant American import Mason Cox, who stole the show on ANZAC Day 2016. The 211cm Cox had only picked up a football for the first time two years earlier (he’d been a basketballer at Oklahoma State before then), and his rapid acclimatisation to the Australian game had become one of the great footy stories of the decade.

He started the ANZAC Day game deep forward, and less than two minutes later had latched onto a mark after a pass from good friend Darcy Moore. He duly went back and slotted truly from 20 metres out, sparking wild celebrations. 

That was Cox’s only goal for the game (the Magpies cruised home) but it started a career that few would have thought likely back in 2014. The high point remains his dominant performance in the 2018 preliminary final when the Magpies overcame hot favourites Richmond.

JOSH SMITH, 2016

You have to feel a bit sorry for Josh Smith.

The hard-running Queenslander would normally have been the story of the day when he made his senior debut on ANZAC Day in 2016. But with Mason Cox grabbing all the attention that day, Smith’s similarly significant moment passed with far less fanfare.

That wouldn’t have worried Smith, for whom quiet efficiency became the trademark of a career that would eventually lead him to 32 games with the Pies and a further couple with West Coast.

He was actually slightly more impressive than Cox on debut, grabbing 23 possessions and nabbing a goal as well. He was a smart player and a neat user of the ball, but ultimately lacked the killer weapons needed to eke out a longer career at the highest level.

Collingwood Cult Figures: Rupert Betheras https://forever.collingwoodfc.com.au/collingwood-cult-figures-rupert-betheras/ Wed, 30 Mar 2016 01:45:04 +0000 http://forever.collingwoodfc.com.au/?p=10331 By: Glenn McFarlane of the Herald Sun As Collingwood charted a pathway from easy beat to unlikely premiership contender in 2002, a new chant spread its way through the Black and White army on match days. The catchcry was ‘Ruuupppeee … Ruuupppeee” and it grew voice whenever the club’s industrious midfielder-forward Rupert Betheras went anywhere near the ball. It was unconventional, and out of the ordinary, just as Betheras was. Many Collingwood footballers who have had longer and more productive careers have not had the same sort of engagement with the fans as Betheras had in much of his 85 games across five AFL seasons. But somehow he seemed to touch not only the supporters who admired the way he embraced the contest, but also his teammates who respected his honesty and commitment to the cause. Even he couldn’t quite explain it: “I suppose if it can get everyone fired up, that’s good.” 160330_betheras01 A reflective Betheras at the St Kilda Sea Baths in 2002. Photo: AFL Media. Nathan Buckley acknowledged in Betheras’ first AFL season, 1999, that the new player wearing the No.49 jumper “was always going to get him a bit of attention (because of his unusual name), if he got a kick.” Fortunately, for Collingwood, he could get a kick, even if his pathway into the AFL came from an alternative route. He had shown good potential as a junior at East Malvern, though he was a late developer, highlighted by the fact that X-rays when he was 15 showed that he had the bones of an 11-year-old. He had two seasons with De La Salle in the VAFA before heading off with a girlfriend on a surfing sabbatical to Western Australia. Betheras drove across the Nullarbor Plain – with no spare tyre, mind you – with football the furthest thing from his mind. But a chance meeting with a mate on the beach at Margaret River changed the direction of his life. That mate invited him down to train at East Perth, where former Magpie Kevin Worthington was coaching, and he impressed from the outset, and wound up playing every game of the 1996 WAFL season. Such was his form that he was rookie-listed by Fremantle, though he never won a senior call-up. A move back to Melbourne followed and he sent a video highlights package to a host of AFL clubs. One of them was Collingwood, and the Magpies reserved a spot for him on its supplementary list for 1998. By the end of that season he was almost part of the furniture, acting as the reserves captain and winning the best-and-fairest award. He shouted ‘Go Pies’ into the microphone when accepting the Joseph Wren Memorial Trophy on Copeland night. That further endeared him to the faithful, and saw him rewarded as pick 76 in the national draft. Betheras debuted for Collingwood against West Coast in round three, 1999, in the penultimate match at Victoria Park. He would play 16 games for the year as one of the few illuminating characters in a season of darkness. His first six games resulted in losses, including one to Adelaide that he almost secured off his own boot, only to be penalised for a push in the back in the dying moments. A week after that near-miss, he played “the game of his life”, according to one newspaper, against St Kilda, having 27 disposals, kicking the sealer goal 21 minutes into the final term and having Nathan Burke assigned to him. “When you haven’t played in a winning team before, you don’t look at those things (the goal) as sealers …. I’ve always had to fight pretty hard for my position,” Betheras said after the breakthrough win. 160330_betheras04 Betheras takes control against Melbourne during his debut season, 1999. Photo: AFL Media. He was happy to take on difficult roles, playing on seasoned midfielders Mark Bickley, Todd Viney and Daryn Cresswell in his first season. The more arduous the role; the more he seemed to thrive on it. “I always had the belief that once I got a go, I’d play all right,” he said. Betheras finished in the top 10 of the Copeland Trophy, winning the Harry Collier Trophy, as best first-year player, as well as highly-regarded ‘Wrecker Award‘ in that debut season. He barely missed a beat the following year, under new coach Michael Malthouse, playing all 22 matches, finishing sixth in the best-and-fairest award and winning the Darren Millane Perpetual Memorial Trophy as best clubman. A blue-collar worker who was more of a pure footballer in a time where many clubs were chasing athletes, Betheras was described by Buckley as “very much team-orientated, (always) about doing the right thing, and working hard to earn your stripes.” A guernsey number change to 10 came in 2001, but he managed only 14 games that season, finding himself out of the senior side late in the year. But his most influential season was to follow, as he played all but one game of the 2002 season, contributing to Collingwood’s run through to a Grand Final appearance against Brisbane Lions. His impact gave life to the chant, notably in the round eight clash with a seemingly invincible Brisbane at Docklands, a game in which he kicked three goals and had 22 disposals. Asked after that breakthrough win over the Lions why he had rapidly become a Collingwood cult figure, Betheras shrugged his shoulders and said: “I don’t know”. 160330_betheras03 Betheras celebrates as the final siren sounds on Collingwood’s three-point win over Brisbane in round eight, 2002. Photo: AFL Media. But the real explanation was that Pies fans loved the way he attacked the ball and the way he had a capacity to provide a spark when it was required. They were also intrigued by his story off the field, and how this one-time street graffiti artist had taken to painting. For a time he had even taken up the disused press box in the Bob Rose Stand as his art studio. Betheras played a significant role in Collingwood’s spirited run through September, kicking two goals in both the Qualifying Final win over Port Adelaide and the Preliminary Final win over Adelaide. He had 14 disposals – including nine contested ones – in Collingwood’s nine-point loss to Brisbane in the 2002 Grand Final, throwing himself into every contest as if his life depended on it. In the rooms after the game, he spoke of how the pain of narrow defeat could hopefully lead to something better. “We thought we could win the game, showed we could, but we didn’t,” he said that night. “It’s an opportunity lost and it doesn’t come around every year.” Collingwood would get its chance the following year, but would fall short again. Betheras wasn’t there, having lost his spot in the senior team late in the season. Ever the team man, he did play in a premiership that year, with Williamstown – Collingwood’s aligned side at that time – in the VFL sharing the moment with a young Nick Maxwell and Dane Swan. Betheras was only 27 when he was delisted at the end of the 2003 season. He did pre-season training with Richmond one summer and with North Melbourne the next, but never got another shot at it. Sadly, his AFL playing career was over, but his influence on the game wasn’t. Betheras would go on to play a key role in unearthing Liam Jurrah and helping to put him on the pathway to becoming the first indigenous player from a remote community to play AFL football, albeit with Melbourne. He would continue to work with indigenous communities, assisting many young sportsmen and women and artists along the way. Betheras was a good footballer, but in many ways, he was never solely defined by the game that he played. Maybe that’s what endeared him to Collingwood fans so much when he was wearing the Black and White jumper. 160330_betheras02 Crashing into Justin Leppitsch and Chris Johnson during the 2002 Grand Final. Photo: AFL Media. ]]> The coaches: Tony Shaw https://forever.collingwoodfc.com.au/the-coaches-tony-shaw/ Mon, 20 Oct 2014 23:52:38 +0000 http://forever.collingwoodfc.com.au/?p=9332 Coach: 1996-99 Games coached: 88 When Tony Shaw finished his playing career in 1994, he stood among the greatest of Magpie players. A club record 313 games, two Copeland Trophies, a Norm Smith Medal, all-Australian and Premiership captain. Footballing CVs don’t come much better than that. But as sad as Collingwood fans were to see him leave the field, there still seemed to be much to look forward to. Most observers thought he would make an excellent senior coach. He’d made the most out of his natural ability, had shown football ‘smarts’ almost from day one, and had demonstrated a great capacity to inspire those around him. Carlton certainly recognised the potential, and offered him a position as assistant coach under the highly regarded David Parkin. ‘Shawry’ was seriously tempted by the offer and was all set to sign, until a meeting with the notoriously vocal Carlton President John Elliott made him think twice: could he actually work under a bloke like Elliott? While Shaw wavered, Collingwood swooped – offering him a similar role at Victoria Park, under Leigh Matthews. Shaw said yes, and when the one-time ‘coach for life’ Matthews was dumped 12 months later, Tony Shaw took on the role as Collingwood senior coach. Unfortunately, the next four years turned out to be unhappy ones, both for Shaw and the club. But the early signs were actually encouraging. Shaw promised “changes and new ideas”, and he delivered. The new game plan was much more attacking, and players were encouraged to take the game on wherever possible. There was also a far greater emphasis on structures and how the team would function at set plays, an approach that turned out to be ahead of its time. Even while trying to adapt to Shaw’s new game plan, the team started the 1996 season well but then fell into what would become a disturbingly familiar mid-season slump, losing eight games in a row. The Pies ended up in 11th place, one place lower than 1995 but with one more win. An extra win came in 1997, though with a percentage that was the sixth best in the competition, a reflection of Shaw’s attacking philosophy. The team would often kick reasonable scores but still wind up on the wrong side of the result. Two years outside the finals convinced Shaw that he needed to rein in some of the more adventurous elements of his team’s style of play. But he admitted later that he over-corrected, tightening up too much and hampering the attacking play that had been the Pies’ strong suit. The results weren’t pretty, with Collingwood finishing in 14th spot. That result prompted the most unedifying moment of Shaw’s reign, when it became public that the club had secretly approached former Geelong player, and then Sydney assistant coach, Damian Drum to replace him. But Drum knocked back the offer, instead choosing to take the job with Fremantle the next year, and news of the approach leaked, leaving the club red-faced and Shaw severely embarrassed. “I thought I’d seen it all with everything I’ve been through in 17 years of footy, but that was the hardest thing I’ve experienced,” Shaw said later. “I’m not going to lie. People see you as being hard when you’re a coach, but that was probably the hardest three weeks – really it was six weeks – of my football career.” This was a traumatic time for Collingwood, with the first bloodless coup in Magpie history when Eddie McGuire took over as President. And he, too, was mortified by what had happened to Shaw. It was actually one of the final catalysts that prompted him to take the top job at the Pies. “I came down here that night…I remember going back to work [afterwards] and feeling really disappointed by the whole thing,” McGuire said later. “We had Shawry almost in tears on the front doorstep, so emotional …I thought, well, what’s gone wrong?” In the end, the club honoured the final year of Shaw’s contract and gave him one last chance to prove himself. But it didn’t work out: the team finished bottom of the ladder, and Shaw’s last game as coach was also the last game the club played at Victoria Park. So he was in the unique position of knowing that the game would be his last in charge, and also knowing that his pre-match address was being televised live to hundreds of thousands of Magpie fans. The crowd was silent as he delivered his final instructions to his players. He gave one last plea for the team to play with passion. More than most, he knew what the history of the place meant to the fans. He named some of the players who had carried the hopes of Collingwood. “Just go out there and know that there are 30,000 people out there who would love to be in your position today,” Shaw said calmly, but with purpose. “They would do anything to be in your position today.” The speech was inspirational, but it wasn’t enough. The damp squib of a performance that day put a full stop on the Tony Shaw era. And even though history doesn’t judge those years kindly, it has to be said that Shawry didn’t necessarily have a great playing list at his disposal. It’s also worth remembering that future stars such as Simon Prestigiacomo, Chris Tarrant, Paul Licuria, Anthony Rocca and more all got their starts during that time. Tony Shaw might not have had a successful stint as Collingwood coach, but it wasn’t for lack of effort, or passion for the club. Nothing that happened then changes the fact that he is, and will always be, a Collingwood legend.]]> Wooden Spoon https://forever.collingwoodfc.com.au/wooden-spoon/ Sat, 23 Aug 2014 11:03:18 +0000 http://forever.collingwoodfc.com.au/?p=7948 1976, Collingwood finished last for the first time in its history under coach Murray Weideman with six wins, more than any previous bottom side.
