Talk about blowing your own trumpets!! Pendlebury is a very good footballer, we have proven that we dont need the tag of Rising Star down at our club - all you have to do is look at Heath shaw from last year - he should have won, but didn't, and that's ok look where he is now!!! He may have missed out on a AA spot - but we don't need those either!! We play as a team and all we are after is the flag. Granted we have to go thru you - which will be no easy task, but write us off at your own peril!!
Pendles is going to be a gun, if not on his way now. He has his own style of toughness and hardness at the ball and he plays the game like Mick wants him too!! He does the team thing and the one thiing he has on other players his age is his vision. Can't say Selwood does.
And if we are talking cheap possessions, all players get them, that's the way the game is played now. It's what you do with them that counts, and Pendles has made his count all year. So he makes a few mistakes, again everyone does.
Maybe we should have this arguement in a few years time and see who is the better player then?? I don't think you can split them much now, and I doubt really we'd be able to in a few years either!!!
Good luck on Friday night. May the best team win!! As much asI would love too, if it doesn't happen, I won't be too disappointed cause we beat the Eagles and living in Perth, it was the best thing ever!!!!!
