Looking forward to the oppo “of course he gets off because Collingwood” melts
Yep they’ve arrived. The response would be that Jason Cloke And Anthony Rocca are the last 2 players to be suspended for a Grand Final and they both played for Collingwood. Yet Barry Hall and Trent Cotchin got off and were free to play on in a granny.

02 & 03 was just before my time and yet it still gets under my nerves 😂
 
Collingwood champion Scott Pendlebury could wear a gold No.10 on the back of his famous guernsey if, and when, he passes Brent Harvey’s AFL games record of 432 matches this season.

Pendlebury, 38, is closing in on Harvey’s decade-long record and will play his 428th match against the Giants at Marvel Stadium on Friday night.

The Magpies have put months of planning into making sure Pendlebury’s milestone match is one of the biggest celebrations in the club’s history.

If he doesn’t miss a match across the next month and a half, he will equal Harvey’s games record on Anzac Day against Essendon, and potentially push through to 433 games against Hawthorn in Round 8 at the MCG.

If he misses a game, the milestone could happen in the Round 9 away game against Geelong at the MCG. However, this masthead understands the home side, the Cats, have agreed to ensure the pre-game Pendlebury tribute receives the full treatment it deserves.

South Sydney’s Alex Johnson became the NRL’s biggest try scorer earlier this month, and he wore a gold number on his back.

The Magpies are looking into doing a similar thing for Pendlebury, with a specially designed logo ‘SP 433’ complete with a silhouette of the veteran to be used on all the Collingwood players’ jumpers for the night.

The club is also planning a range of other activities to honour the Magpies superstar, who made his AFL debut back in Round 10, 2006.
 
If he wears a golden 10, I'm completely done with this club

please stop using every available opportunity for revenue raising which this will turn into

let the champion run out wearing the same guernsey he has for 400+ games

just let this happen organically and let it be a magical night not a cringe fest

There's speculation that the West Coast game is being penned as the game he breaks the record

Makes the most sense

  • Home game at the G
  • Interstate team so we can really try and turn it into a true cauldron
  • Makes it a bit easier to get tickets

Just means he'd essentially have to miss 3 games to get there

We can probably squeeze 2 out of his injury (I say squeeze, because Pendles generally rarely misses more than 1 with most injuries) and then I guess we "manage" him for one of the interstate trips
 
Bit slack recently!

Updates made after the timeless Anzac Day performance and everything is back on track except for the crowd stat which I need to interrogate. Key points:

1. Obviously the big one is the games record which will fall soon
2. Moved into 3rd of all time for wins. Chasing down Burgoyne next and then will need to play until 2028 for any chance of overhauling Michael Tuck as the GOAT
3. Has moved into 4th of all time for inside 50s. Next up is Gary Ablett and he might need to play until 2027 if he wants to move onto the podium.
 
Surely Pendles must be tracking well to having the most wins over Carlton and also Essendon ... ?

Has beaten Carlton 26 times and Essendon 24 times.

Kevin Bartlett beat both Carlton and Essendon 25 times each.

Michael Tuck. Carlton 23 times. Essendon 26 times.

I only got down to Travis Boak in the all time games played list, but it's possible he has the Carlton one outright 😂
