Brett Peake

[Adam The God 30,539]

I know I should trust, but Peake is a ordinary player at best.

[Axis of Bob 11,875]

His manager is Colin Young, and he does all of his negotiation through the media.

Brett Peake is 26 years old, was dropped this year by Freo, has pace but is a shocking, shocking kick. There is no way that we would look at a player like him.

Ignore the article because it's just Colin Young trying to make it look like his player is 'walking out' on Freo rather than 'being delisted' by Freo.

His manager did same with Sandilands.

This is about right I think.

I'd be shocked if Peake was on our list next season. Why would we bother? The idea just defies everything we're about right now.

And what does our 'showing interest' amount to anyway? A reporter calls around each club, asks someone on the recruiting staff if we'd be interested in Peake. We offer an ambigious throw away line like 'We'd have a look' and then its reported as 'showing interest.' Means nothing.

Or as suggested, its just a manager spinning rubbish.

Seriously, over the last few weeks, I dont think Ive read one article regarding the draft or trade period that hasnt been mere trivial speculation or just stating the obvious.

Its just one fluff piece after another.

Yet still, hundreds of us come from all corners to pan for gold in a sewerage farm...

I think he has already reached his Peake....

Not interested

Peake is lightning quick and a decent wingman - he ran 3rd in the B+F when the Dockers mad the Prelim Final in '06. His passion for football has wavered over the years, but if he was committed to his footy, he would have the talent to be useful contributor. The MCG would suit him.

Exactly. Though Digga wont understand it.

I think if you cant get a go with freo then you aren't going to cut the mustard at Melbourne. Why would we want players that cant get a gig in other teams? if we want ready made players go for the best. No harm in shooting for the stars. One day we might land one. I'm over being just "average"

He played 1 WAFL game (half way through the year) and 18 AFL games for 14 goals this year so he can get a game at Freo. His kicking is too much of a flaw for Freo to ask a lot for him. I would trade Miller for him if they asked for more then I'm not interested. If Dalziell wants to go home and Brisbane are happy with it then we won't have to worry about it cause we won't be able to compete with that.

[Doggo 32]

Big big BIG NO from me.

Peake, ugh.... horrible footballer. Outside midfielder with average skills, average pace, doesn't win his own ball, too old.... BIG NO!

[LITTLE STINGA 1]

Peake Outside midfielder with average pace

You haven't got a clue what you are writing about. He has blistering pace.

[Doggo 32]

Yeah, right. Blistering pace... sorry but i don;t see it. More of an endurance athlete for mine, but believe what u want.

[Rogue 585]

Too old for starters.

[LITTLE STINGA 1]

Too old for starters.

He's only 1 day older than Miller. We haven't exactly got a heap of old players and 26 isn't exactly old.

[Demon_Tingles 211]

ok we dont need Peake we have Simon Buckley.

On the pro side he is as quick if not quicker and gets the same amount of ball.

On the con side he butchers it sometimes the same as Peake and is injured as much as Peake.

No need for him when we have his twin basically

[thewizard48 0]

Can't kick. Definately not

[Swampfox 190]

Peake brings nothing that we dont already have in spades
