When he could get on the paddock he was very good for us, but injuries cruelled it all.
From our side, just one of those punts that didn't pay off.
No idea whether neutrals perceive him more as a Swan or a Crow.

He definitely had more impact on the Crows.
Those draft picks would be 28 and 29 year old guns now.

I'll remember him most for giving me a chopout on my bio-statistics assignment in first year pharmacy

Which brings us to the real question, will Scott Pendlebury be remembered as a Pie or an elite junior basketballer?

Forgot Kurt Tippett even played for Sydney tbh.
I saw the other days he is now on the BOARD for the Gold Coast Suns.
Talk about underqualified.

Looking forward to the "Robbie AhMat - is he remembered more as a Magpie or Swan?" thread.

Just goes to show that once you’re part of the AFL old boys network you’ve got a job for life, no matter how unqualified.

Crazy the affects are so long lasting and continue to be felt by the club today. Compensation for Tiprat would've also been another 1st rounder - so 3x first rounders and 2x second rounders in the bin. It even wiped out our junk picks for the those years, so zero youth coming in excluding Matt Crouch who we got for cashing in Bernie Vince. Insanely over the top penalty which kills a club.

A good version of this thread would be Shaun Higgins - Bulldog, Kangaroo or Cat?
That's always been 1 of the dumbest parts about the whole saga
Adelaide didn't actually exceed their TTP, even with the additional payments to Tippett outside the cap
Reality is that he was guaranteed payments from sponsorship/media/marketing outside of the club. The problem was he couldn't be bothered doing most of what he was offered. And he then forced the club to top up his payments.
The club was then stupid enough to top up his payments from its own sponsorship income.
There were a few good articles written about it in The Age around that time.
Club (Trigg) fell on its sword for the first years loss of draft picks. AFL added a few more
