  is possibly back on the trade table, but doesn't link him to any specific clubs

 

[_SirStealthy01]

Don't believe all the media talk there will still be clubs making their pitch.

100% ball is in his court now, if he wants more playing time or to stay in Sydney

Well you would expect an announcement in the coming days before trade week.

Will be interesting.

Anyone who wants to see why Melbourne are chasing Peatling

Watch the round 20 game GWS v Dee’s at the G

Peatling dominated with 28 touches, 11 tackles and 8 clearance against a dominant Max Gawn

I was told they we’re definitely in Adelaide together

Not sure how many days they were in Adelaide, but there where there together

Not sure why Peatling would be at Brownlow, but then again it’s only a short flight

That was reported somewhere today

Any Peatling highlight packages laying around?

[Thrillthorpe7]

Any Peatling highlight packages laying around?

Took a game saving mark against the Saints earlier this year, kicked a couple of massive goals against Sydney in the first final, BOG against Brisbane in a massive comeback win. Just watch highlights of any of those games and you’ll see Peatling highlights.

 

[Schulzycrow]

He seems to be a good kick, a decision-maker, speed, and can kick a goal. Everything we need

He’s like Pendlebury in traffic’s

Amazing agility and lateral movement

That cricket tragic twitter dude reckons we are also after Stone from GWS as well?? but he is absolutely going back to Vic.

 

[Shifty Crow]

We still have the Luko money, we should be able to offer Peatling a deal that gets him out of GWS and stumps any other clubs offer

Kicks goals and likes to run, yes please.

 

[latinoheat]

Not sure he would fit into our staked midfield

 

[Shifty Crow]

Snaring Peatling would be the cherry on the top

Peatling, Cumming and ANB are best 22 and adds a quality pool Ayer to each zone of the ground

ANB and Cumming could push into midfield and Wing, and Peatling could push forward

This would seriously improve our team

Staked?
Is that what Murphy has been doing. Staking out at the contest from half forward hoping the coaches will notice him and put him in there.

 

[George Kramer]

Gees I know only highlights but a lot to like, speed, hits the contest hard, clean hands, decent kick, kicks goals and good decision making.

He’s a no brainer target if we are a chance and would give our team a big point of difference.

Big get for the club if we can nab him to compliment Cumming and ANB, plus we would have a number of existing players who would be very very nervous.

 

[Gtowncrow]

Our Network should cover those remote leagues ....past players ect identifying prospects

Surely we can "mine" our own turf better than historically we have ......IIRC Tom Stewart was playing for Balwyn Heads & identified by past player (Scarlett)

Hahahahaha.....Balwyn Heads WTF. There is no such place. Maybe you're thinking of Barwon Heads.

BUT...
Tom Stewart was playing for South Barwon here in Geelong. Matty Scarlett was the spotter though.

 

[Mostyn]

Why does he have to be an A grader?
If he improves our best 22 it's a big plus.

Haven't you heard?

You have to find the reason this is actually a negative - it's the BigFooty way.

Barwon Heads would be 15 minutes from Geelong. He's hardly hidden.

Look at his handling skills in the wet/damp conditions vs the Swans
