On the Hot Breakfast.
Collingwood president Eddie McGuire explained exactly what happened with Scott Pendlebury yesterday.

McGuire said that it was an on-going back niggle that flared up forcing Pendlebury to miss the game.
"It's more tightness in his back and he felt it through his legs," McGuire said.
Eddie believes that the firmer training surfaced in Perth might have played a factor in the mishap.
