It’s not like cut and dried.If Pendlebury snags a brownlow or premiership captain / norm smith medalist double will that sway you?
As midfielders I would go Pendles. As overall players Bucks.
Although seen as a midfielder Bucks was capable of playing CHB on Carey and beating him or go to full foward half and kick 6 golas in just over a half against Brisbane. He was a jet and is severly underated by the footy community because of their dislike for him as a player.
For me it’s Buckley. He dominated the competition along with Voss and Hird in a stronger way than Pendles ever has. We are splitting champions but Bucks for mine is Colllingwood GOAT.Polite question, guys.
Is Pendlebury better than Buckley? Both great - both killed us a few times (many, actually - including just a few weeks ago). Both won multiple B&Fs.
Pendlebury is such a marvel to watch. Buckley was more your traditional power midfielder.
Interested to know how you guys, who know them better than I do, rate them.
(My uneducated opinion - I would choose Pendlebury. Mostly because I like watching him play).
Pendles probably the most joyful to watch. The time stand still ability is mesmerisingFor me it’s Buckley. He dominated the competition along with Voss and Hird in a stronger way than Pendles ever has. We are splitting champions but Bucks for mine is Colllingwood GOAT.
Pendles and Swanny is the better comparison and I have Swanny just ahead because his best was more dominant and he kicked more goals. On that score Bucks is better than either of them also. Bucks was the most damaging mid of the 3 them Swanny then Pendles
I agree on Buckley.For me it’s Buckley. He dominated the competition along with Voss and Hird in a stronger way than Pendles ever has. We are splitting champions but Bucks for mine is Colllingwood GOAT.

Give wills a runBrown did his job. Plays hard and has great evasive ability. Gotta keep him in the side to keep building.
JT needs to lift and should come under pressure and Obi Wan Degoey does what Degoey does but he needs to compose him self a bit more. Making too many lazy mistakes.
Great win
Pendlebury is a champion, but Buckley was on a different level. 100% agree, amazing how quickly some forget.For me it’s Buckley. He dominated the competition along with Voss and Hird in a stronger way than Pendles ever has. We are splitting champions but Bucks for mine is Colllingwood GOAT.

Buckley is the greatest Collingwood player to ever set foot on a football arena.Curiously, Mick Malthouse has asked the same question last night on the ABC radio coverage.
Guess what his answer was?
Doug Hawkins (Yep, I kid you not)
He then prattled on about a bunch of other players from the 20th century.
But when he was pressed about Collingwood, out of Pendlebury and Buckley who do you think he picked?
Dane Swan (Yep, I kid you not)
With Steele Sidebottom being the most consistent over a long term.
He reckons Buckley was a great player but was compromised because of the hamstrings. And Pendlebury has had a good patch of around 4 years.
Cantankerous git
Pendles probably the most joyful to watch. The time stand still ability is mesmerising
John Greening has to be in there for me.Oh if I had to venture the five best players I’ve seen they are both in that group.
Len Thompson
Phil Carman
Peter Daicos
Nathan Buckley
Scott Pendlebury
