Multicultural Round has come and gone for another year.
As the AFL promoted the inclusiveness of our game, Collingwood celebrated an ongoing partnership with Melbourne’s South Sudanese community.
Included in this was a nine-a-side curtain raiser on the MCG between the Victoria Police and the South Sudanese Magpies.
After training with Collingwood’s players during the week, the two sides battled it out in front of a crowd eagerly anticipating the Pies’ upcoming round 19 clash with Adelaide.
The best photos of the match can be viewed in the gallery below.
