We got the rub of the green early from the umps but geez did they make up for it in the last.



Bullshit mate. As soon as his name was called the booing got worse, as it did when he was talking.

Classless losers.
Lol everyone was booed. Hamish McLachlan, Buckley, Pendlebury, the Collingwood theme song, the umpires.

It's because of the standard of the umpiring and not just because of Pendlebury.

Pendles wasn't necessarily booed. The booing never stopped. Siren went, boos started. CFC song played, boos continued. Song finished, boos continued. CFC song played again, bood continued. Song finished, boos continued. Pendles awarded, boos continued.
Yeah sure. They could see him trying to speak.
Not really adding to the conversation here but there were some absolute howlers today.
The Hooker one on Cox was the worst.
Grundy push in the back on Guelfi wasn't much better.
Feel for the umpires really.
They're clearly as confused as the rest of us.
What are the sodding rules AFL?!!?
you catch the Langdon holding free?

I don’t get it. Boo’ing in a regular game, and boo’ing a player on the podium receiving the ANZAC day medal, are two COMPLETELY different things.

This day is about the ANZACS. That award ceremony? To award the player who best encapsulates the ANZAC spirit on that day.

To boo during that? It is disgusting.

And I found Robbo’s comment to be spot on (for once). Its not the time.

The awarding of the ANZAC Day medal is NOT about you essendon supporters... and how you feel about the result or umpiring. It is not even about Pendlebury.

I can’t see how anyone can defend that booing. Grow the **** up.

Nonsense. Umpires did their utmost to keep the Bombers in the game to ensure a close finish. Pies won in spite of the umpires.Collingwood by far the better team
You do realise your comment suggests that there was a conspiracy among the umpires and the AFL to keep the game close for entertainment value. Do you have any evidence?

Nothing wrong with the booing. Good on them for taking a stand against blatant match fixing.
But on ANZAC Day during the presentation. Lacks class and respect.
Deplorable behaviour from a despicable club. This club cheered its players and Hird remember. Cheered cheats.

It's tremendous Buckley will never get premiership success as player or coach.

No response to your classless fans booing Ablett, Shuey and Watson?
Says it all about collingwood.
The club of the scumbag.
I loved the booing, just made the win that much better.

Better luck next year.

I watched on TV and this was my first thought.

For so many to stick around shows how angry they were.
This is a telling point. Thousands of Essendon fans didnt stick around after the game just in case Pendles got the medal so they could boo him. They hung around to protest the umpiring which they believed affected the result of a very close game

Get off your high horse.

Pendlebury was a respected player.

Until he decided to be a ducking cheat.

Deserves the boos.

Just like Buckley for knifing Brisbane all those years ago then malthouse.

Say it was directed at pendlebury, who cares? He's not some God that can't handle being bood.. If he is he's in the wrong bloody industry. Opposition fans owe him nothing. No one does. Half of the players play footy for 6 months, get paid 500k+ and go overseas drinking, ******* and snorting their way back for preseason.
So should we just boo everything then? Eddie Betts on his 300th game for example.
Boo at the Brownlow etc etc.

Who cares? I do. I'd like to think there is some respect still shown in sport. Good manners and sportsmanship. It's not hard.
Feel sorry for you for being so cynical and bitter.

I don't care if it was at pendlebury. I take it as a given that they were booing him, the result, the umpires, you know footy related stuff and that was an opportunity to do it by booing over the top of someone. I don't care about that. The ones lying and saying they weren't booing pendlebury or the result or the umpires would have to answer your question. All footy related booing is a non issue blown up by the media and those that think they are better than you or I.
fair enough mate. We will leave it at that.

Buckley’s intentional dishonesty in suggesting fans were booing Pendles when he knew it had nothing to do with him to try to claim some moral high ground is a dirty snake in the grass tactic reminiscent of Hitler at Munich.

Disgraceful to the spirit of ANZAC Day
The only dishonesty here are your supporters pretending it’s solely about the umps. I was at the game, you’re full of shit.
