TUESDAY, 18 jUnE, 2024 The 1940 Albert Collier Trophy has been rescued from the Tip Shop and donated back to the Hobart Football Club recently. “We are extremely grateful to Samantha who rescued this amazing find from the local tip shop and donated to the club,” a club representative said. Cananore Football Club was the Hobart Football Club’s predecessor from 1901 to 1942. The 1940 Albert Collier Trophy was named after Collingwood Brownlow medallist and Cananore’s coach for 1931-32.
