GWS have a deep midfield so iā€™m not sure they can guarantee that

GWS midfield, or at least their depth is a bit of a myth

Tom Green's the only sure thing through there. Kelly & Cogs are chronically injured, Finn Callaghan plays mostly wing. Plenty of room for Peatling, it'll be the coin that gets him over the line.

    I believe heā€™s a free agent, but Iā€™m not 100% sure

    I donā€™t think that is correctā€¦ or at least he wasnā€™t on the article showing 2024 free agents on the AFL site

    Peatling is exactly the type of player we should have been pursuing over the past 3 years. Instead Lamb goes after 27yo unwanted players who's best was past them.

    Revisionist history?

    I agree, but Bedford seems to be their number 1 tagger and theyā€™ve slowly upped Callaghanā€™s midfield minutes as he starts to win his own footy. Daniels is starting to play more midfield too.

    They might be prepared to sell Peatling at his peak value right now knowing Harry Rowston, James Leake, Conor Stone and others are all ready to come in.Ā

    I donā€™t have a clue as to Peatlingā€™s value, so Iā€™m guessing, but would this yearā€™s pick 3 plus our future pick two, get Peatling plus Derksen thrown in as the set of steak knives?Ā  (Iā€™m hoping weā€™ll keep our possible pick 2 (ANB) from Adelaide, with a view to improving our draft hand)

    You might want to edit that post again hardtackĀ before the Demonland early risers choke on their coffees and assume you're predicting we're going to finish second-last next year and possibly spend our whole current and future draft cache on a pair of fringe players.Ā

    To them I say, ā€œHave at me!!ā€ šŸ¤£ Note that I did post at approx 4:30am, and I am neither in Perth nor a foreign principality, so I can safely say that I plead insanity.

    Apparently 6 Victorian clubs into Peatling would good offers. Ā The Giants increased their deal which was then bettered by some Victorian clubs. Ā Giants will have to go again !!! 5 year deal likely. Ā

    Hope we are balls deep into a deal.

    Is he worth our 2025 first?

    If our 2025 first round pick is (1,2,3) 4 or 5, then noĀ 

    If our 2025 first round pick is 16, 17 or 18, then yesĀ

    No, even if it's pick 18. Second rounder is his value. He's a similar commodity to Langdon was at trade IMO (pick in the mid 20s).

    It's the gamble every clubs takes. Collingwood [censored] up with F1 for Schultz, we did well including F1st (mid teens pick) for Lever trade.

    Personally think it will be around 10 or 11. Does next years draft get screwed by Tassie?

    Peatling is not worth a pick under 30.Ā  Unless you're desperate to be seen to be doing something.

    Ordinary players become stars at this time of year.

    He is worth A LOT more than that.. Pick somewhere 30-45 this year or 20-35 next year imho

    Finals form was solid, which upped the value! Player rating of 9 this year but late he was hitting an avg of 12.3 which is excellent. 16 Coaches Votes this year!Ā

    Edited my post -- but 1-60 seems solid hahaha

    Ā 

    Out of Contract but not free agent, so that does push trade value down a little so a third rounder next year could be enough but with bidding war of 6 clubs I'd say a pick this year in 30's but who knows

    Weā€™re still in this. Offering 4 years. His choice and will decide shortlyĀ 

    Peatling now has a 5 year deal on the table from someone so this probably wonā€™t be enoughĀ

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?

      Itā€™s Game Day, and the Demons are back on the road with a massive challenge ahead ā€” facing the reigning premiers, the Brisbane Lions, at their Gabba fortress. The Lions are licking their wounds after a shock draw in Tasmania last week, while Melbourneā€™s season hangs in the balance. Can the Dees defy the odds and pull off a miracle to keep their razor thin finals hopes alive?

    • NON-MFC: Round 10

      The Sir Doug Nicholls Round kicks off in Darwin with a Top 4 clash between the Suns and the Hawks. On Friday night the Swans will be seeking to rebound from a challenging start to the season, while the Blues have the Top 8 in their sights after their sluggish start. Saturdays matches kick off with a blockbuster between the Collingwood and Kuwarna with the Magpies looking to maintain their strong form and the Crows aiming to make a statement on the road. The Power face a difficult task to revive their season against a resilient Cats side looking to make amends for their narrow loss last week. The Giants aim to reinforce their top-eight status, while the Dockers will be looking to break the travel hoodoo. The sole Saturday game is a critical matchup for both teams, as the Bulldogs strive to cemet their spot in the top six and the Bombers desperately want break into the 8. Sundays start with a bottom 3 clash between the Tigers and Kangaroos with both teams wanting to avoid the being in wooden spoon contention. The Round concludes with the Eagles still searching for their first win of the season, while the Saints look to keep their finals hopes alive with a crucial away victory. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
