and they're into James Peatling as well. He's a local from the Western Jets so has some interest there as the Dogs look to beef up that part of the ground."

Has Dogs family history.

His grandfather played in the 1954 premiership side.

I believe his family has asked the Dogs more than once to "bring him home" ( feel all dirty-Geelong saying that ).

Unlikely to be traded even if he asked to be.

No one has ever come out and said you know what.
I want to go home, to Braybrook, Sunshine, Maribynong, Footscray etc

They’re all shitholes

 

[MITSUHIRATO]

So far the media has the Bulldogs to be linked to just about every single player on the market.

Strong Joakim Noah energy with this.

Big Norlane energy about you.

You say Norlane
I say Corio South

I'm sure Carlton will be in a couple of weeks

Hey that's my line!

Take a lot to get him out of the Giants. Contracted.

The general sentiment is meh. If he’s available cheap we’ll take him, but if he’ll cost more than a third round pick he can stay for another year.

Contracted and depth for our midfield.
Can’t see us letting him go cheap.

You can wait a year, that’s fine by us. Might end up costing you. Might not.

It's Xavier O'Halloran not Tom Green won't cost anyone

Didn’t say he was but players arent all or nothing.
But he is contracted and a required player. Giants have zero reason to move him on.

 

[Giant Strides]

That's right, if he doesn't move, he won't cost anyone anything.

Not denying that just saying his overall impact if he goes or doesn't for either team will be minimal

Injuries happen and a supposed fringe player becomes a gun.

From a Giants perspective it would be silly trading him this year. What you would get would not be worth losing a solid depth player for.

Giants should be more active and find a depth player to replace the guy. Not a fan of waiting 12 months for the inevitable if thats what it looks to be.

maybe they are working on that and using the 12 months to get it right. While also using that time to convince him to stay.

Just waiting on Harley

 

[Mofra]

With Peatling going this one seems dead in the water, at least for this year.

Cal Twomey said today that it’s still possible if Giants land Stringer and Shiel, which are both looking likely.
