Pendlebury: Beyond 400 EP7 - Mentality

The mind games. The pressure. The expectations—external and internal. The mentality. It's another key part to twenty seasons at the top.

Pendles opens up on his mental blueprint: from setting a simple goal of playing ten games in year one to breaking superstitions along the way. He reveals how he’s handled the media and social media noise across his career.

Plus, a pre-season trip to the Gold Coast for match simulation as the season creeps closer.

This is next-level insight from a generational great.
