Love it Tippy, and loved the Cripps bonus.
Look forward to the weekly updates.

If he doesn’t miss any games he’ll probably break the record in Round 19 against Port or Round 20 against Carlton.

Brilliant, thanks.

Table updated!

 

[Pie 4 Life]

Would be cool to have a column with overall leader and number just so we know what the benchmark is too.

Good idea, I’ll add it

This is awesome.

I don’t want to jinx him, no buts..

 

[OniAu]

Awesome . love this . He really is going to be a decent holder of some of these total stats. Impressive

 

[manicmagpie]

I‘m just going to point out that the AFL Tables website which lists Pendles as being 900k behind Fletcher for crowds doesn’t include games from 2020 or 2021.

Pendles played in front of 614,313 people in those two seasons, so his total is actually 18,999,412 and he is only 298,632 behind.

 

[Pistol Night]

Great thread

 

[76woodenspooners]

Great thread!

Pedantic, but probably need an asterisk in the catch-up column for Oldest player / longest career given Shannon Huron is still playing and no chance of Pendles catching him until he retires.

Also, IIRC didn’t Pendles recently break some record for games played at the MCG?

 

[RedmanWasHere]

Useless fact about Pendles.

He's now 55 games in front of Tony Shaw.

Thanks Manic, I was going to get back to you about the discrepancy. I’ll update it to include the missing numbers

 

[jimmy35]

That’s awesome work mate, well done

 

[Daics35Marvel]

I can't believe that Pendles has only had just over half the number of kicks as Kevin Bartlett! That is one record that will never be broken.

 

[BEEG]

I approve of this thread.

The only time KB ever handballed, it was to himself when tackled.

 

[Pie thon]

Great post

Bruce McAvaney would be bringing up everyone one of these records the instant they fall

Pendels would have to play for approx. 3 more years and loose every match to catch up.

 

[gouki88]

4 more years! 4 more years!

 

[sideswipe]

Pendles 143 losses
Kade Simpson 215 losses

Pendels would have to play for approx. 3 more years and loose every match to catch up.

Losing Kade's record will take a lot of beating. Special mention to Todd Goldstein who will enter the all-time Top 20 this weekend.

 

[Tarkyn_24]

Pendles 143 losses
Kade Simpson 215 losses

Pendels would have to play for approx. 3 more years and loose every match to catch up.

Genuinely concerned he’ll earn this unwanted record if he continues playing for the next fifteen years (as he looks like he could)

 

[beerbandit]

Wow KB really did never handball.
