said the same thing about him in a post last week
he's definitely getting better every game
some of his disposals are a bit ordinary , but look how Grammy is improving that aspect of his similar/valuable running role

anyone listening to SEN? they talked in detail about peakey. they were saying how hes pretty good but his kicking on the run is woeful. they reckon he needs to steady and slow up a tad as he kicks and kick through it. they reckon he kind of drops it on his boot at full pace. this is probably something he can improve in spite of his age. needs to practice it and think about it.35...LEGEND wrote:Add's some run and dash..........terrible kick but.
On the run it looks like he's gonna kick it into his own forehead.![]()
but going ok
i still reckon hes important for us. we will need his run in september badly.
With his run, filling in for Gram. Doing a good job in that department. His kicking is shocking however, his delivery into the foward line cost us a couple of certain goals on Sunday.

Often when he kicks he seems to really get under the ball causing it to go high and short...rather than long and flatter.
If they could just improve his action to kick it more normally he would get greater distance
= more goals on the run
= better delivery to team-mates.
I think Gram had a similar problem when running flat out that he would shank some kicks. Gram has improved.
Let's hope that they get a kicking coach to work with Peake on this.
