Scott Pendlebury

He's going to take absolutely everything Steel's side bottom has got.

Hits 50.

Drives it side bottom.

Side bottom drives it.

Swanee just because of just sheer brute force and just I love the cheek in him and I love how whenever the media got stuck into him he wouldn't have given two shits but always performed and gave a subtle nod like when he rubbed his tummy that time.

So yesterday was the big day.

The entire Collingwood Football Club packed into the Ponsford stand, honouring a once-in-a-lifetime player.

The living history of the game gathered.

Kevin Bartlett held the game's record.

Michael Tuck inherited it.

Boomer Harvey's held it for a decade.

And on Saturday, it moves into the hands of Scott Pendlebury.

I was really keen to knock it over on the Monday, which allowed all the boys to just have a normal prep for them.

Obviously, the Monday was going to be a bit different.

Just gave a little taste of how big Saturday is going to be.

Traditionally, we've done that on a Thursday.

So, yeah, get that done.

And, yeah, it was really cool.

It was done.

If I had a dream scenario of how it would be done and handled and stuff like that, it was, yeah, certainly executed yesterday.
