Banned by the game, shunned by Collingwood but still standing strong: The forgotten story of Ron Todd

"...But there was a legendary player that football deliberately and systematically attempted to obliterate from the game and its collective memory. This was not because of any gross act of immoral or criminal behaviour. Rather, it was because he thumbed their noses at the iron fisted rulers of Australian rules football. That player was Ronald Walford Todd."
