There’s no doubt that Pendlebury played well but I just thought that he was far from Collingwood’s best or most influential player and was markedly inferior to Cripps.
I suspect it was BB that gave Pendles the 4 votes, because Pendles good ball use would have been a stand-out for our coach, BB's not use to seeing it! That wouldn't impress Bucks, he'd expect that skill level as he would judge players relative to himself! After the game Bucks stated it was ugly, I doubt he would be impressed by outside ball use.
I'm a bit surprised Simmo didn't get a single vote, as a whole I thought it was his best game for us this season! He's had games in which he got more football, but in the past he's wasted a lot more of it! I thought he struck the right balance between attack and defense.
