THE sale of historic medals won by Bulldogs champion Jack Collins has sparked a bitter family feud.
The former spearhead's goalkicking medals will be auctioned on Thursday week unless legal action stops it.

Collins' son, John, says the medals were bequeathed to him after his father gave him clear instructions not to sell his precious awards. But Collins' second wife, Desiree, has handed the medals over to Charles Leski Auctions, with minimum bids set at $18,750. They could sell for $30,000.

Those two options, that's what Jack would've wanted.
