Collingwood great Scott Pendlebury has broken the AFL record for the most career disposals.
The Magpies' No.10 marked in defence and fittingly had a short pass at 10 minutes into the third term of Friday night's Marvel Stadium blockbuster against the Western Bulldogs.
That took him to 13 possessions for the game and 9657 for his career, taking the record from St Kilda great Robert Harvey.
There was loud applause for Pendlebury as the game continued, with plenty of fans aware of the record, and then an announcement over the PA.
It was a big night for Pendlebury, who is playing his 373rd senior game.
That takes him past Adam Goodes for ninth on the all-time AFL games list.
Pendlebury set up Collingwood's first goal with a perfectly weighted pass that found Jamie Elliott.
Another of Pendlebury's trademark left-foot kicks set up Bobby Hill, but he could only manage a behind.
Pendlebury has the most games as Collingwood captain and gave up the role this season, with Darcy Moore taking over.
He captained their most recent premiership team in 2010 and won the Norm Smith Medal as best afield in the grand final replay win over St Kilda that year.
The onballer is a six-time All-Australian and five-time club best and fairest winner.
