Very rare roast for our skipper.

Just said in an interview that it's the first time he's played in a game that didnt mean anything.

Those words should never come out of the Captain's mouth.

Every game should be a privilege to put on our jumper.
 
Didn't see that. Are you sure it's not taken slightly in the wrong context? Or are you perhaps reading into it too much? I can't imagine a competitive beast like pendlebury admitting to, or actually giving up...

Happy for him to say it next week, but the game today did mean something. We win the last three and we still had a slim chance of finals. Now, however the games mean nothing.

You still keep trying, stay accountable, play your roles blah blah blah, but the last two games mean nothing

"That was my first time playing in a game that didnt mean anything"

Not really up for interpretation!?

Great to hear the leader of our playing group doesn't give a shit. :thumbsu:

Guess the fans shouldn't give a shit either, hopefully no one turns up next week.

Just deflecting on how shit we are and also protecting the coach

IF that is the Attitude by the players. We get smashed by 10+ Goals in last 2 games
 
Idgaf if the game means nothing. A 90-odd point loss is completely unacceptable. If playing as the captain of our club means so little to him give the captaincy to someone who does care.

Appalled that he would say something like that.

Who ****ing cares anymore? club goes backwards every year now
 
I can see where he's coming from, it's the first time in his entire career where we haven't been in finals contention, so in that respect it actually is the first time he has played in a game with nothing riding on the result. He is as deflated as the rest of us and was clearly in a very raw place when doing the interview.

Lots of Collingwood families at the game today who forked out their hard earned dough to see that game.

Maybe the club should give them refunds if this is the attitude they are bringing.
 
Huh? Why would he feel the need to say something like this?? If accurate, that's very disappointing.

Pendles is only human. He would be as angry, upset, and p'd off as the rest of us. Just unfortunate that he gets to vent to a media outlet, whereas we do it in here.

Pendles is the Collingwood captain

He has a responsibility to the club to not say idiotic crap in the media.

Even scarier if he actually believes what he said.

I think you have summed it up perfectly.

People are misinterpreting his quote. He didn't say he couldn't give a f--k. He was simply stating that it was the first time in his career that the result was irrelevant.
