Player Watch Scott Pendlebury

Rowell came in and won a spot in the side there are a lot of lesser names who have been given games as there are spots available who have achieved nothing

He polled well in the Brownlow in his (1st_3) games and looked a great player.
 
No you aren’t. You think you are making a good point when you really aren’t. Pendles has mentored DeGoey who do you want the next generation trying to emulate DeGoey or Pendlebury? You don’t want to gift side games that’s when you get into a sh*t position like Gold Coast. They are always giving the next star a game but nothing ever eventuates

Missing my point.
 
Why? Plenty of players have signed for unders at the end of their careers to give something back to the club who has looked after them so well. Pendles was on over 800/900k for a long time, he doesnt need the money.

Minimum is a lot less than a playing great taking a bit of a haircut in his dotage. “He doesn’t need the money” is doubling down on ridiculousness.

Who would you take now.. Mccrae or Pendlebury?
What? We currently have both, and will have the ability to have both for as long as we want. I'm sure Macrae is getting invaluable advice from Pendlebury on how to have long-term success. It's not a case of one or the other, I'm not sure why you're trying to paint it out as one.

You also keep bringing up the case of Hawthorn veterans who got shipped out. We only ever hear about how glad the teams that got them were that they could add such veteran leadership. We never hear about Hawthorn being glad about doing so, because they weren't!
 
How bad are the Lions going???

Why on earth did they give Hodge a position on the field when they could have called someone younger like the talented Karnezis.

Would have been premiers by now....

Who would you take right now.. I would take a punt on McCrae.. if I'm going take a punt on McCare.. I'd take a punt on any young player I think would have a big future for us.. over Pendleburý.
Did you even understand what I had said???
There’s more than 1 position in the team.
McCrae or Greenwood, Mayne, C Brown, WHE, Thomas, Sier, Etc etc.

Do you think we have enough capable kids to fill all those spots as well as Pendlebury’s?

Apparently there's no coaches.. players.. other staff members.. at the club.. seriously.. Robson mentored Mourinho and Ferguson.. Mourinho and Ferguson's opinions now count for shit? If you're so big on Pendlebury as a mentor.. is there no one else?

The leaps you're making are ridiculous. Neither I nor anyone else in this thread has argued as such. However, Pendlebury is the greatest Magpie of the modern era, is the current captain, is currently still the best midfielder in the team in his early-mid 30s, has a very strong strategic understanding of the game, and has an exceptional understanding of the physical requirements of the game, hence his longevity. He arguably has the most to share of any of our leaders at the club.

I legit have no clue what your point is. I'm not sure you do either

What are the flow on effects at the club with Pendlebury being used as a mentor.. others have not learnt from him.. pass on that knowledge?

Mate I'd have 2 young guns in the guts over a Pendlebury and a Mccrae every day of the week. Would rather have them learn and grow together..

Probably need to do your research on who Robson Ferguson and Mourinho are..

It's like you're telling me that shit ain't passed on from generation to generation.. Pendlebury mentors Adams.. Adams mentors who.. I suppose the knowledge he gained from Pendles means shit when he's mentoring.. why.. because it didn't come from the horses mouth?

I don't give a shit about EPL managers, your point (if there is one - still not sure there is) is nonsensical, and it's as if you're not even reading anyone's post in responses to yours. Not sure if you're just taking the piss

If there is no one there that can teach other young players what Pendlebury has taught them.. how was Pendlebury ever a mentor?

Jesus christ, it's like you cannot read with the way you're interpreting my posts! I give up

So you don’t want McCrae??
Now I’m confused.
