| Fox Footy just gave a presentation showing Pendles' multitude of silky manoeuvres. Absolute gold!!! Sublime skills coupled with steely application and commitment to get the best out of himself. What a player 👏 |

What an incredible milestone for an equally incredible player. He has been such a pillar of strength and source of exquisite skill for our team over such a long time. The stats quoted by other posters attest to his astonishing attributes as an AFL player. I hope that our performance against Adelaide measures up to the significance of this occasion, and provides him with even more reason to celebrate this milestone!!

Just remember, a quick shout out to the Hawks and carlton, who both passed Pendles over in 2005 draft:
Round Pick Player Recruited from Club
1 Marc Murphy Oakleigh Chargers Carlton [Priority]
2 Dale Thomas Gippsland Power Collingwood [Priority]
3 Xavier Ellis Gippsland Power Hawthorn [Priority]
4 Josh Kennedy East Fremantle Carlton
5 Scott Pendlebury Gippsland Power Collingwood
6 Beau Dowler Oakleigh Chargers Hawthorn
7 Paddy Ryder East Fremantle Essendon

Thomas was highly lauded indeed by the recruiters prior to the 2005 draft.
Pendles snuck under the radar, but ripped it up in the reserves prior to his debut against Brisbane at MCG; goal with his first kick too.
It was the same games Lonie's hospital pass to Caracella ended his career, thus costing us a critical mid by the 2007 finals.

From memory, Pendles wasn't seen as a top 10 pick so a lot were surprised we selected him as high as we did.
Fantastic draft selection in hindsight.

It's probably not a stretch to suggest Whorethorn, with Pendles wearing #8 instead of Ellis, may very well have claimed our four-peat in that time, while we are still waiting in limbo for another flag since 1990; and that's 32 years - oh the irony!

For all the talk of Hawthorn nailing the draft in those years, 2005 was a poor one for them (Ellis and Dowler).

| I seem to recall at the time Hine rated Pendles more than Daisy, but he knew Daisy would be selected early, so we'd have to use our 1st pick on him, whereas we could still get Pendles with our 2nd pick. That's how it turned out. Brilliant work. |

| It pisses me off the AFL would have known when Pendles’s 350 would be when they decided the floating fixture for these rounds. Assholes. They should have scheduled a game at the G, or prime time TV at least. |

My recollection is that they missed more than they hit - they were just lucky that they hit some incredible players - Hodge, Mitchell, Lewis, Franklin, eg. We would have been pleased to recruit 2 players of that calibre in the same period. |

Very happy we can celebrate a win in his 350th.
One of the all time greats.

^ Ditto. If ever we needed to win one of these close ones, it was today. Very appropriate result for the magical Pendles.
Just saying to a mate how lucky we've been to witness the football careers of two Collingwood greats in Pendles and Bucks. We've been truly blessed. 🙏 👌 |
