The answer is 5, it was Albert Collier wearing no. 7 in 1930, not Harry

As we all know, there was a 3 way tie in the 2003 Brownlow involving a Collingwood player. In what other year was there a 3 way tie involving a Collingwood player?

Carlson was dubbed "The Night Football Specialist" after playing well during the Escort Cup era of mid-season night competition played at VFL Park circa 1978-1981.

OK here's my question: What were the lyrics to the alternate Collingwood Football Club theme song that existed around the mid-eighties? I believe it was sung by Mike Brady, as opposed to the Fable Singers that sang the original theme songs.
