When Scott Pendlebury arrives at Spotless Stadium on Saturday, AFL Integrity Unit rules mean he’ll have to hand over his phone until the end of the game.
Normally a non-issue, the Collingwood captain will no doubt feel uneasy this week. A call or text message from wife Alex could come at any moment with news of a baby Pendlebury on the way.
Listen to Pendles and Jay Clark of the Herald Sun discuss whether or not he’ll play against GWS, what happens if Alex goes into labour during the game, and potential baby names and more on Collingwood Media podcast ‘Journo and Journo’.
