"Lethal" Leigh Matthews.
1990
1989 - 1990 was the transition from VFL to AFL. The Collingwood football club won the first AFL premiership in 1990.
Collingwood is personally my favourite AFL team. And for shore Collingwood was formed in 1892.
3, 1953, 1958 and 1990.
The Collingwood Aussie Football League team does not have a mascot and is just called the Collingwood AFL team even though some refer to them as the "Pies"

In this season, 2010, Collingwood has won only the one Premiership in the past 50 years - that being in 1990, under Lethal coach, Leigh Matthews. However, Collingwood are certainly set for finally breaking through in the Grand Final this season - for their 2nd Premiership in the past 50 years. Next week will tell.
1977 had a VFL Grand Final Draw - Collingwood and North Melbourne. North Melbourne prevailed the week after. There has not been one in AFL before. (VFL became AFL in 1990)
collingwood will win the afl premiership for 2009?
Due to the AFL ladder it proves that Collingwood is better
Hawthorn (who defeated Geelong).
