Collingwood’s 2016 season will officially come to an end on Friday when the 89th Copeland Trophy is awarded to the Magpies’ best and fairest player.

The Palladium at Crown will play host to the lavish annual event, with past and present players, coaches, board members and a select number of Magpie supporters in the room to celebrate the season that was.  

Collingwood’s Copeland Cast will also return in 2016, with viewers provided exclusive and free access to the club’s night of nights via the club’s official Facebook page as well as collingwoodfc.com.au.

It marks the first time members and supporters will be able to watch the event on Facebook, offering fans the ability to comment on proceedings as the night unfolds.

From 7:30pm (AEST), Collingwood Media will take audiences inside the Palladium as Brian Taylor hosts the event and introduces key speakers.

Prior to hearing from the winner, Collingwood Media will take Copeland Cast viewers around the room during the ceremony’s intervals as hosts speak exclusively to past and present players.

An email will be sent to all members and supporters on Friday morning with further details and the link to the Copeland Cast live page.
