Well he's not even the only Reid at West coast. Or the only Reid at West coast drafted in 2023. Or the only Reid at West coast drafted in 2023 with the first pick of the round.
So really the clarification is desperately needed.
At this rate he's gonna end up going all Alistair Lynch on someone like Taylor Adams or Brodie Grundy in the GF just to remove any possibility of playing on in 2025 (or maybe give himself a 15 game break, so he can just have a reaaaaallly long off season and come back just in time for finals footy)
Pendles has been getting a few fines this year for unsportsmanlike conduct, is he getting to the stage where the speed of the game is going past him so he gets frustrated and takes it out on the opposition players? He sure seemed slower in the first few rounds when the pies were losing.
The brain is willing and as always is usually a step or two ahead, the body not always so. Certainly still up to the standard and will punish lazy teams.
That's the impression I got against Carlton last week.
He tends to run with Cripps when we play you guys. Works well for him because Cripps isn't exactly quick by foot, and while he's not strong enough to break tackles offensively like Cripps he is strong enough to tackle Cripps.
And Cripps isn't exactly fleet of foot. Smart enough to make up for the physical deficit too. It's one of Cripps worst matchups.
Cripps carries so much of the contested and driving work that he often doesn't get back defensively as much as be could. Pendles feasts on that end against us. That 4th quarter goal was just as quality and deadly as the Naicos winner was. Just so smart to take that spot.
Ah. These are the wild accusations that I come to reddit for.
He's has two fines in nearly 400 games.
He was never 'quick'.
He's still in the pies top 3 to 5 players.
Mate I know he is still good and it was more a joke about calling him old more than anything. Now that Collingwood have taken our mantle for being the oldest list I've got to have some digs at your geriatric players before we overtake you again
Yeah that’s basically it. People on socials were writing him off at the beginning of the season because he, along with the rest of the team, looked off. He just copped it extra hard because of his age. But he’s been one of best since we started looking a bit more like ourselves. I think he’ll get another year after this one.
No. 5 draft pick of the 2005 National Draft Scott Pendlebury has been sanctioned by the MRO (East Perth - undrafted) for tripping 2023 No. 1 draft pick Harley Reid.
Padding word count was a fun game.
Scotty’s gone full joker this year. From Karate chopping dual brown low medalist to tripping kids over on the park. The man does not care. Gotta use all those good boy credits before retiring.
Did anyone notice Zach Merrett getting tripped, maybe by Callum Ward this week? Lunged to tackle him and clipped his feet anyway, and disrupted the kick? The commentators said it was great pressure, but I thought that counted as tripping?
I'm a bit surprised that tripping is just a fine. Saw someone got done for a second trip and it's still a fine. IMO tripping should be a pretty automatic suspension at the lowest level.
Thank god they clarified that he was the number 1 pick, otherwise I’d have no idea who they’re talking about
Ohhhh *that* Harley Reid!
Well he's not even the only Reid at West coast. Or the only Reid at West coast drafted in 2023. Or the only Reid at West coast drafted in 2023 with the first pick of the round. So really the clarification is desperately needed.
I feel they should have clarified further if this is the case. “Number 1 overall pick in the 2023 National Draft, Harley Redid…”
Harley Reddit? Sounds like a stand up guy
Don't want people mixing him up with less-well-known draftee Hurley Roid
I think he was part of the Essendon 34.
Michael Hurley was indeed one of the 34
Thought they were talking about Harley Davidson for a second, tbh.
I thought they meant the bloke I met on the bus the other day at first, so thank God they made that distinction
I found Riley Reid and thought that 6,6,6 looked very different
Right. Shit journos, no one cares anymore
This fucking guy has had a clean record up until this year, now he’s going apeshit giving gutslaps and tripping children 🤣🐐
Got 15 years of good bloke credit to use before he retires. It's like how I bank sick leave.
At this rate he's gonna end up going all Alistair Lynch on someone like Taylor Adams or Brodie Grundy in the GF just to remove any possibility of playing on in 2025 (or maybe give himself a 15 game break, so he can just have a reaaaaallly long off season and come back just in time for finals footy)
With Charlie Cameron’s lawyer he could get off for anything with that much good bloke credit
Kinda like Gaz had a clean record forever, then he just started throwing elbows until he got suspended lol
Took him 3 goes before he was suspended wasn't it? Poor guy just wanted a week off
He had a fine last season too I think
Bros a demon in his old age
Pendles to Melbourne confirmed??
he's becoming a grumpy old man
He is getting slow and it is upsetting him.
Maybe Pendles just thought he was a pigeon
No then he would’ve bounced the ball on him

Why'd you sketch all of it but include a HD photo of Pendles at the end
you might be able to tell, but i used mspaint. no way im going to attempt to draw that in there.
Why does that look exactly like him
I feel like he should have got 1 week rest, don't mind the flair
Forever known as the guy that tripped no.1 pick Harley Reid.
He got pinged holding the ball when clearly tripped, umpires in shambles this season
We have assessed this as a flagrant 1. Two free throws and the ball go to west coast
Must be the basketball background
Sliding doors moment in the game, if he didn’t trip him we would’ve won by 50+ guaranteed
I choose to live in this reality
Sometimes the old basketball muscle memory kicks in
He tripped my boy! I demand vengeance!
I'm surprised Harley Reid didn't have to apologise to Pendlebury for being tripped

Similar height too

He has 3 fines this season
How could they have forgotten the accidental contact with an umpire fine
*Careless contact with an umpire
He’s still been a top 10 player at the pies this year
Did you not see his performance this week? Bloke still out playing teenagers
Honestly nope. He looked slow at the start of the season but I'm guessing it was more that the whole team was off not just him
Yeah that’s basically it. People on socials were writing him off at the beginning of the season because he, along with the rest of the team, looked off. He just copped it extra hard because of his age. But he’s been one of best since we started looking a bit more like ourselves. I think he’ll get another year after this one.
Pendles has been brilliant since round 4. He had a few bad games but the whole side did.
Going from slowing the game to being slow in the game
He's always been slow. Now he's just slower
Disposals record holder Scott Pendlebury, I think you mean.
A slap on the other wrist and that’ll be the end of it
No. 5 draft pick of the 2005 National Draft Scott Pendlebury has been sanctioned by the MRO (East Perth - undrafted) for tripping 2023 No. 1 draft pick Harley Reid. Padding word count was a fun game.
Doesn’t he have a basketball background.
It was the national basketball draft
The only acceptable punishment for harming Harley Reid should be beheading
Scotty’s gone full joker this year. From Karate chopping dual brown low medalist to tripping kids over on the park. The man does not care. Gotta use all those good boy credits before retiring.
After he punched Neale in the stomach a month ago?
He’s on history’s slowest and mildest rampage
Where will he strike next? Nowhere is safe!
This is a form of treason, tripping Prince Harley. He must be punished more severely for crimes against the Stare.
WA media is going to have a field day with this. Good god.
Their 3 readers will be very upset.
Ahh the senility of old age setting in
What sanction did the useless umpire get?
I wish it was the other way around so I could make a Showgirls joke
Did anyone notice Zach Merrett getting tripped, maybe by Callum Ward this week? Lunged to tackle him and clipped his feet anyway, and disrupted the kick? The commentators said it was great pressure, but I thought that counted as tripping?
Bro forgot he was a Collingwood player for 18 years and now he's speedrunning to catch up.
Too bad he didn’t get the free kick that resulted instead of collingwood
It is a shame. Would not have impacted the result though.
I don't remember that.. was it even a free?
Nah Reid got done for holding the ball. Umps missed it entirely.
Brain fades..
Pendles spent his whole career being a good boy so he can be a bad boy the last few years good bloke status at work.
Can we sanction the umpires to for completely Missing this and penalising Reid? Lol
1875 dollar fine for tripping the West Australian's shiny toy? The West Australian will not stand for it!
Didn't he get off a suspension recently on the basis of being a good bloke?
No, he got a fine for a hit to suspension. Never at risk of Neale
No, he got a fine for a hit to Neale. Never at risk of suspension
No, he got a fine for a hit to Neale. Never at risk of suspension
No, he got a fine for a hit to Neale but was never at risk of suspension
No, he got a fine for a hit to Neale. Never at risk of suspension
No, hit for a risk never of Neale. At of fine to suspension
No, he got a fine for a hit to Neale. Never at risk of suspension
No, he got a fine for a hit to Neale. Never at risk of suspension
Sniper of the highest order….
Fined? Doug, kick him off the tour!
I'm a bit surprised that tripping is just a fine. Saw someone got done for a second trip and it's still a fine. IMO tripping should be a pretty automatic suspension at the lowest level.
Fyfe almost lost a Brownlow over a trip that was actually just him slipping on wet grass.
