Humble handball, but a legendary feat: Moment Pies champion quietly made AFL history
Collingwood champion Scott Pendlebury has become the first AFL player to reach 10,000 disposals, reaching the milestone in the early stages of the Anzac Day clash at the MCG.
The 2010 Norm Smith Medallist brought up disposal 9999 when laying a heavy tackle on Ben Hobbs on the wing which earned a free kick for holding the ball. With the Magpies under immense pressure, Pendlebury managed to weave the footy through heavy traffic when handballing to Darcy Cameron.
