Description: From the basketball courts of Kilsyth to the hallowed turf of the MCG, this is the definitive account of one of Australian Rules football's most cerebral and composed champions. Tracing Scott Pendlebury's journey through the AFL draft, his emergence as the metronome of Collingwood's midfield, and the unforgettable 2010 premiership campaign, this book explores the qualities that made him a captain, a Norm Smith Medallist, and a modern great. Rich with statistical insight and honest reflection, it examines his distinctive playing style, his leadership through shifting eras at the Magpies, and the enduring legacy he leaves in black and white. A must-read for footy fans and anyone who appreciates the art of playing the game with time to spare.
