We're finally here - the year's golden match, bigger than the grand final! It's where our Waalitj Marawar Pendleburies take on the Collingwood Pendleburbies at the MPG to see who can win the Pendlebury Cup! You might not know this, as it's been kept under wraps, but Scott actually breaks the AFL games record this week: finally usurping the record from the midget tyrant Boomerbury, who consistently frustrated our own Pendleburies for decades. (Love ya Harvey, legend) Find more information about how to enjoy the occasion here. The round also coincides with Sir Douglas Pendlebury round, which I think has something to do with celebrating those who have a cultural basketball backgrounds. Where traditional Sale culture is acknowledged, such as loving inland boats or the local Angus McMillan shrines that stand tall to this day. Special jumpers will have SP433 printed on them, which means "Sale Pride 433". Somehow our own Pendleburies are capable of flying over to Melbs, which is not your usual Pendlebury trait and shows how much work we still have to pendle in order to pendlebury with the best. His hair looks different at different times! Ins/Outs (TBC) Each team will lose some Pendlebury and gain some Pendlebury. We might hope that our tall Pendlebudy lineup matches well, but they get back their ruck Pendlebury which will be a big in for them. Losing our Inverloch Pendles to a hamstring again means our pressurebury will be hard to replicate with any fit WAFL Pendlebury that replaces them. Key match-ups: Pendlebury #9 vs Pendlebury #10 With our biggest Pendlebury playing his 50th game, will he continue to lift to match up with the greatness of the OG Pendle? We know he can't. But we can dream. Will they go head-to-head? Probably not. This is the match-up that will decide the game. Watch for the handshake pre-game and post-game. This is a good chance for our own Pendlebury to get some classic Pendlebury magic to rub off onto him. It's Pendleception. Key match-ups: Pendlebury vs A Jog around the Centre Square Will the centre square get any repreive from this champion stalwart? Not likely. Watch Pendlebury give it no space at all, as his reanimated corpse reaches a game-high 20km/h sprint from one end of the square to the next. He'll blanket that space all match, and his fellow pendleburies will know just where to find the Great Man to help him rack up another 30+ touches. No doubt the commentators will acknowledge, with appropriate shame, the lack of respect that our West Coast Pendleburies are giving this centresquare fixture as they attempt to follow the play instead of tracking the subtle running patterns of the legenderary Pendles. You just can't give him that much time and space! Time slows down around him. The main hope that Centre Square has to impact the match is when Pendlebury has to jog over from a flank. Key match-ups: Pendles vs Naicos It will be a big challenge for the commentary team to overhype Daicos this week of all weeks. How they keep this impulse in check whilst properly giving Pendlebury his dues will be on matchup to keep an eye on. Scott Pendlebury Pendlebury pendle Scott Pendleburys Sendlebutty Scott 10 Pendles. Pendlebury? Pendlebury pendlebury. Verdict: Pendles to defeat Pendlebury by 433 pendleberries
