The glitz and glamour of the AFL's night of nights, the Brownlow Medal, will witness a new slice of history this Monday—and it's not just about the players. Alex Pendlebury, the wife of Collingwood captain and champion Scott Pendlebury, is set to break the record for the most appearances by a WAG at the prestigious ceremony.
This year will mark her incredible 11th time walking the red carpet alongside her husband, a testament to Scott's phenomenal and sustained excellence in the game. The couple first attended the event together in 2010, the year before they were married, and have been a staple of the occasion ever since.
Scott Pendlebury himself is no stranger to Brownlow success. The Magpies skipper is a five-time winner of the club's best and fairest award and has consistently polled well in the medal count throughout his storied 18-season, 400-game career.
Speaking to the Daily Mail Australia, Alex shared her excitement for the upcoming event, revealing she has her stunning gown already prepared. While she playfully remained tight-lipped on the designer, she did confirm the colour is a classic "navy blue"—a fitting tribute to her husband's team colours.
The Pendleburys' enduring presence at the Brownlow is a unique record that highlights not only Scott's longevity at the pinnacle of the AFL but also their strong partnership off the field. As they prepare for another night under the lights, Alex is ready to officially cement her status as the Brownlow's most experienced and celebrated WAG.
