Just went on the Collingwood website to check for the latest news etc when i noticed an ad for our sponsors, Lexus. To cut a long story short, it shows the speedo going from 0-280 odd and says "It's everything you thought we weren't."
Now as a Pies supporter, i'm happy for them to advertise for their sponsors Lexus, but as an AFL club who is affiliated with the TAC as well, surely it's sending a bit of a conflicting message?

Not really interested in hearing any Collingwood bashing, was just pointing it out.

Check it out if you like, it can be found either on the right hand side of the page under the latest score, or else as a banner down the bottom.

*Note* Try waiting a minute and refreshing the page if you can't see it, there are about three sponsors whose messages come up, Lexus, Wizard and some Citysearch or something.

Are Collingwood still associated with the TAC? I thought they lost that sponsorship.

I am sure that they are no longer sponsored by the TAC.
