GWS have a deep midfield so i’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.

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 they’ve slowly upped Callaghan’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.

I don’t have a clue as to Peatling’s value, so I’m guessing, but would this year’s pick 3 plus our future pick two, get Peatling plus Derksen thrown in as the set of steak knives?  (I’m hoping we’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 hardtack 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.

To them I say, “Have at me!!” 🤣 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.  The Giants increased their deal which was then bettered by some Victorian clubs.  Giants will have to go again !!! 5 year deal likely.  

Hope we are balls deep into a deal.

Is he worth our 2025 first?

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).

If our 2025 first round pick is (1,2,3) 4 or 5, then no 

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

 

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?

If he's worth as late a draft pick as some are saying, yes

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!

I'd have him somewhere between  1-60 myself

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

 

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

But can they offer anything to satisfy GWS ? 

They might be able to swing their Noble pick from GC

We’re still in this. Offering 4 years. His choice and will decide shortly 

Peatling now has a 5 year deal on the table from someone so this probably won’t be enough

    MORE FIERCE by Meggs

    We’re back!  Winning the last three matches has recaptured our Demon spirit and, with superstar players returning from rehab, our Season 2024 dreams are not over yet.   So come along 5.05 pm Saturday afternoon to watch this Round 9 ladder-defining match at the Field of Dreams. Expect the Tigers to be fierce, but surely the Demons will be more fierce. Playing conditions are expected to be a dry 15 degrees with a typically gusty Cranbourne wind. The media opprobrium of the ill-consi

    IN FRONT by Meggs

    In this must-win clash between Melbourne 11th on the ladder and St Kilda 8th, it was the Demons who were in front all day to win in a hard-fought Round 8 clash to make it three in a row to keep theit slim finals chances alive. A good crowd of enthusiastic footy families for week 2 of Pride Round had gathered.  The full pews in the well-appointed RSEA Park grandstand provided excellent viewing.   The Saints won the toss and elected to kick to the southern end favoured by a strong 2-3 g

    THE TRADING CHRONICLES 02

    Part 2: Watching grass grow by Whispering Jack Critics of test cricket (and I’m not one of them) will often claim the sport is excruciatingly boring: that following a five day match is much like watching grass grow. However, the longest form of that game has nothing on the first week of the AFL trade period when it comes to inducing sleep among those in the football public who follows this process in its somnolent moments. The week gone by has been no exception. Only two player trades

    THE CAVALRY ARRIVES by Meggs

    The injury plague which has beset the Demons 2024 campaign is finally starting to dissipate and with consecutive wins over GWS Giants and a 2-point nail-biter in Adelade, a sense of optimism is rising.  Some commentators are now asking whether the Dees can make finals? A huge surprise with team selection this week when it was announced that champs Olivia Purcell, Paxy Paxman and Eden Zanker would play.   Hallelujah!  The cavalry has arrived. St Kilda missed the finals last season on pe

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised
