Scott Pendlebury has faced the AFL Tribunal.
www.collingwoodfc.com.auHere’s the latest on Pendlebury based on recent reporting I can access:
-
Scott Pendlebury faced AFL Tribunal proceedings earlier in 2026. The tribunal overturned a one-match suspension for rough conduct, replacing it with a $3,000 fine, and he was cleared to play in Collingwood’s Round 3 match against the GWS GIANTS. This development was reported by Collingwood’s official site and AFL media at the time. [cite ][cite ]
-
There has been ongoing talk about Pendlebury’s contract and future with Collingwood, with the club indicating they expect to keep their key players and that Pendlebury’s long-term future at the Magpies was not in question in the weeks surrounding these reports. [cite ]
-
Separate coverage around Pendlebury in late 2025–early 2026 touched on various related topics, including injury updates and broader discussion of his status, though the March tribunal outcome remains the clearest direct update on his playing status for 2026. [cite ][cite ]
If you’d like, I can pull the very latest headlines from specific sources (e.g., Collingwood FC, AFL, or major news outlets) and summarize any new developments, including match eligibility, contract chatter, or notable performances.
