All good found it. Sorry I don't live in Adelaide so am not familiar with all the drive time showsIt's in one of their eps from late last week, on any podcast platform
Against St Kilda yeah.From memory he took a possible game saving mark going back with the flight this year too didn’t he?
I understand that he chose us because his Mrs and Cumming's Mrs are best mates ().I was extremely surprised he chose us considering he's not an SA lad. We usually don't get these deals so it's a massive plus for our recruiting team on this one. They also weren't satisfied with a simple 2nd round pick price but they held off for some change as well.
I don't know what they intend on doing with those picks but it was a steal in the end. I predict Peatling will have a big influence on our centre clearances next year.
So he joins a long line of players to help St Kilda snatch defeat from the jaws of victory?Against St Kilda yeah.

We need those picks for next year’s draft.
Hello, just a question if you don't mind.I was extremely surprised he chose us considering he's not an SA lad.

The market dictated his price. Don't come whinging here, you'll get no sympathy.Hello, just a question if you don't mind.
Why did you want a player that is not even worth a future 2nd round pick. If he is going to have a big influence on centre clearances, that Is probably the most important part of the game.
Kind of? We already had a 1st rounder and two 3rd rounders prior to the trade. Clubs don't generally pick late in the draft, so the future 4th isn't much different from just whatever our final pick would be anyway.
I'm hoping we can trade some of it away to creep up the draft order a bit earlier on. Late speculative picks are late speculative picks regardless of if they're in the 4th or 5th round.
To be honest I'd never heard of him before Crow's interest but I looked at his highlights and I think he has great potential and still only young. He might've been down the que a bit in your midfielders but I think he'll add a lot to ours.Hello, just a question if you don't mind.

Well we saw a guy that GWS offered a 1 year extension to that was stuck behind some of the games top midfielders that had some good exposed form late in the season and thought, he might get more opportunity with us so lets offer him a contract. We did and when it came to it, he liked our contract more than the original and revamped ones GWS put forward. Then when it came to trade value, he was OOC and GWS initial offer was a 1 year deal to a guy that was finding it hard to crack the side. A F2 we thought might be around the mark and in the end we parted with one and got back some later picks. If you compare him to Keays, we got him as a DFA and Peatling will need to impress to go past Keays as a player, a player that has really grabbed his second chance at AFL.Hello, just a question if you don't mind.

He never said he didn't want Peatling, not many if any has said they don't want Peatling.Hello, just a question if you don't mind.

Have you seen our list of out of contracts? We should be delisting at least 4 players. 2023 and 2024 total only 5 players drafted as well.
I'm assuming we'll draft 5-7 players next year.
You can't "run out" of picks. You get as many picks as you have list vacancies. Let's say we go into the draft needing to pick 5 players. Prior to the trade we would have been selecting them with a 1st, 3rd, 3rd, 4th and 5th round pick. Now it would be 1st, 3rd, 3rd, 3rd, 4th round picks instead. Not a huge difference.
By the time you get into the 4th round, most clubs have finished selecting players anyway, so any picks at that point aren't worth much more than just taking the final picks in the draft. Look at Geelong last year, for example - picked their final three players with picks 58, 61 and 63 because almost everyone else was finished picking.
Pick 63 was 20yo Lawson Humphries. Played the last 11 games of the year for the cats, including 2 finals games. Averaged 17 disposals.I'm assuming we'll draft 5-7 players next year.

I don't have a direct source, but I understand that Geelong are reasonably happy they opened up that last list spot.
Sorry, I was agreeing with you.I'm all for opening up extra list spots. I'm just saying that an extra 4th round pick, as opposed to just "you can pick another player at the end of the draft" are almost identical.

The third rounders could be useful there. Unfortunately the 4th rounder won't be, since from next year that range of picks that attract any value at all has been shrunk down.Mitch Stevens F/S points.
