Welcome to episode one of our Mini-Series ‘Legends & Lore’. In this ep we cover two absolute stars of the modern game, who also have backgrounds in basketball - Scott Pendlebury & Monique Conti. Monique not only has a background in basketball, she has played it professionally alongside AFLW, while Scott is expected to even the all-time AFL/VFL record for games played this round!  A gentle reminder that this episode was recorded in mid-April (so Mon could still feature - and you’ll be glad she does in this one!), so all information is accurate as of time of recording.
