-
Pendlebury faced AFL Tribunal scrutiny in March 2026 over a bump on Josh Worrell. His initial one-match suspension was downgraded to a $3,000 fine due to exceptional and compelling circumstances, allowing him to play again after the club bye. This marked his first suspension in a 21-year career, and the Tribunal noted the decision was influenced by his exemplary record.[3][4][7]
-
In March 2026, reports indicated Pendlebury could return for the Round 27 match against Greater Western Sydney after the bye, following the Tribunal outcome and ongoing rehabilitation for other injuries within Collingwood. He remained a key veteran presence as the Magpies pursued finals and the all-time games record discussions.[7][3]
-
Earlier in March 2026, 7News and AFL coverage discussed Pendlebury’s bout with an arm-related issue that required scans and sidelined him for a period, with aims to return to full fitness and keep progressing toward the 400-game milestone; this added context to his season amid a busy fixture list.[1]
