Pendlebury possibly out!

[Lozza]

"Strong rumors suggesting that Scott Pendlebury will not line up this weekend against Richmond after suffering a Hip/Quad complaint against the Hawks. He trained very lightly in Collingwoods closed session, spending more time walking laps." - Supercoach Paige

It had better just be rumours and nothing more otherwise it'll be FMDT for me this week.

It's only Wednesday, and he's tough, and he got hurt quite early on and still played out the whole game, albeit didn't seem like himself, however neither did many of the Pies really. He'll be fine!

[Ricochet]

Considering he played half of last year on a broken leg and Collingwood really need this win I think he will play

[Discombobulated]

And in the time it took me to read the four posts above me and head back to the forums there are another two 'OMG Pendles WTF I'm stuffed!!' threads up and running.  La Faille.

[Windigo]

Well we will find out tomorrow!

...Hopefully.

[Grazz]

Not a real worry in DT but screws up all plans i had big time.

[HBTD22]

Yep, he'll play. Big, big game for the Pies.

[Mr.Craig]

I'll manage unless he's a late out. Then the red mist will descend.

[essendon2]

ergh, because of this I can't trade out Zorko. Can only go Karnezis --> Westhoff and Mitchell --> Crouch (Kommer is other MID bench) >:(

[C.Judd3Votes]

Who will be captain?

[strikes91]

massive game for pies. i'm sure he'll do everything to get out there

Yeah it was the start of the 2nd quarter when he was getting work on a hip flexor and seemed to be laboured by it. But got through the game fine. Definitely not rumour but he may still play. Have emergency cover.

Who will be captain?

No Maxwell, Beams, Ball, Pendles... that's the whole leadership group.
I would say Thomas or Shaw who were apart of it last year

[Toga]

Bloody hell don't need this... I guess midfield cover will be good enough to cover him if he's out, might chuck an extra emergency on in the mids just in case :-X
