I agree the best use of Pendlebury is in the midfield. Tha isn't the point though. The best use of everyone collectively might be for him to spend a bit less time there to accommodate others and to use him as a forward weapon more IMO. It's nothing to do with his last game. It's his age and the age and trajectory of DeGoey, Stephenson etc that will dictate what happens with incumbents.While I'm happy to agree with the bolded, disagree that the best use of Pendles is anywhere other than in the midfield and while he's still in the leagues top echelon I'm just not sure why people are so frantic to see him moved. Bullshit kneejterk reaction to 1 less than stella game is the only conclusion I can find.
Re Aish I have no reason to think he wants to go home. Adelaide want locals and might pay a good price for a marginal best 22 player for us and one of a large number in our midfield squad. It's something I would like Collingwood to quietly inquire about. Happy to keep him if it doesn't transpire.
