Pendlebury faces AFL Tribunal - Collingwood Football Club
Scott Pendlebury has faced the AFL Tribunal.
www.collingwoodfc.com.auHere’s the latest I can share based on recent reporting:
- Pendlebury has been in the news due to a rough-conduct tribunal outcome in March 2026, with the suspension downgraded to a fine and him set to return for the Round 3 match after the bye. This kept him on track to potentially reach milestone game totals later in the season.[2][3][4]
- In early 2026, reports indicated Pendlebury faced a one-match suspension that was later downgraded to a fine after exceptional and compelling circumstances were considered; he remained available for Round 3 against GWS Giants, pending the tribunal decision.[3][4][2]
- Separately, there were injury-related updates in mid-2026 noting Pendlebury dealing with soreness and ongoing rehab at times, with the club emphasizing his professionalism and ongoing conditioning during recovery periods.[1]
If you’d like, I can pull the most current articles from major AFL outlets or Collingwood’s official site and summarize the latest developments with direct quotes. I can also track for updates on his milestone game targets and any changes to his availability.
