Well if you think trading out the captain for a pick in the 4th round is how it works you are demonstrating you have no clue

That's enough.. didn't seem to be an issue trading Hodge a 3 time premiership captain to Brisbane..

Pendlebury will not play in another premiership for Collingwood.. if you're having him stick around the joint.. to offload knowledge to the lads.. then the group itself.. has got serious underlying issues that need to be addressed.
 
Will still probably win the Copeland.

Scott Pendlebury is the least of our problems.

We are aiming to bring you kids in having a seasoned professional for them to learn from is a massive bonus Hodge had made the decision to retire then the Lions chased him and changed his mind it has no relevance to Pendlebury.

What did the Hawks get from this killer deal pick 75 that ended up pick 71 after other clubs passed. Pick 71 becomes Jackson Ross who spent 3 years on the list getting delisted without playing a game

Trade Pendlebury would be madness. He’s the perfect player to teach our new players how to become an AFL player.
 
Putting yourself in a tough spot.. is a good way to find out where you're at. Rather than just using Pendlebury so it makes you feel like your snug like a bug in a rug.

Is Pendlebury the answer moving forward.. 110%.. No. If we're gonna get serious.. find a suitable replacement.

What you want to do. Trade him to another club to give them experience and professionalism to their list and young guys.

Why dont we keep him for that same reason . When what we are going to get for him will be peanuts compared to the value of keeping him.
 
Time waits for no man.
I look at say Allan Border who had a great cover drive that would bullet to the boundary,And his last few years the same shot would not make the boundary.
But yes a different game players where lining up to replace Border.
We have not developed any mids in the last 3 years knowing Pendles and Sidebottom are playing against father time.

Not having anyone to fall back on.. is a good thing as well too.. ya know.
 
At stoppage, he's not often the hitting target, if we get it his job is to get into position to receive. If they get it his job is to lock them up. He's the one in the best position to defend and is not as good at locking it up anymore.

Never was.

We traded our first round picks in 2015 and 2016 for Treloar. Might have something to do with it.

Made 200 not out in his last year....
 
Feels too bucks/eddie tenure to me. Silly move

Why is it so silly?

Is Pendlebury going to play in another premiership?

You're basically opening up another spot for someone to put their hand up and say I want this ****en spot. For someone man enough and brave enough to take it. I see more value in that than anything else.
 
Never was.
The point is that he's now getting sidestepped or having his tackle broken more easily. So he's now no longer doing the defensive side of his stoppage role well enough. By the end of the year, I think he'll be a rarity at centre square stoppages.

The point again, I’m happy to agree to disagree. Those elements were never a strong suit imho and haven’t changed. I think people are inventing non-issues.

Our issue has been that our nugget of a coach wont put that responsibility on kids.

Not until this year have i seen pendles out of the midfield. Both he and sidey should have been doing this the last couple of years to preserve them and blood kids.

Time to get ruthless and make a move for a young player that has star quality.. or have someone at the club put their hand up.. or if Pendlebury is still around next yr.. and I was a young kid coming through the ranks.. I would make it a priority to make him look like a fool on the training track..

I think he'll still be around for a few more years if he wants to be - but on a wing. Have him do a Chris Mayne and train fully for endurance and just run up and down and linking up and distributing all day from a wing.

Would rather some young bronco on the wing.. over a 34-35 yr old.

I don’t have faith in our coaching group to make a call like that
