Background

Playing career

Pethybridge was a Balmain junior but made his first grade debut for Penrith in round 14 of the 1983 NSWRL season against South Sydney. In 1984, Pethybridge spent a year with Featherstone in England before returning to Australia and signing with Balmain. Pethybridge made eight appearances for Balmain in 1985 filling in for injured Garry Jack. Pethybridge would then return to England once more and played for York during the NSWRL off-season.
