Has been very good since returning, he's using the ball much more effectively now. He still gets in dodgy spots but seems to be able to run out of them and isn't coughing up the ball like he used to. Has been in our top 5 over the last month.

Really, really well.

Hard work paying off. It's better late than never, and he is one our most potent players.

Going as hard as anyone right now.

Playing for his life...and is having a really good go. Working harder than 90% of our players.

He's earned his spot.


Clueless and mediocre petty tyrant.

I agree. Enjoying watching him play and he seems to be everywhere when you watch us play at the moment. Running harder to provide opportunities more than a few others in the team at the moment.

Gut running dynamo of our side. If Gram ran half as hard of him, we'd be looking at him much more favourably. Never stops running and trying, and the thing that I like is that he plays within his limitations. Rarely tries to attempt a manoeuvre or pass that he's not capable of. Sam Gilbert would be the obvious candidate to take a leaf out of Peake's playbook.

Keep up this sort of form Peakey, you're really earning your spot!


The Saints are coming!

someone is claiming they are partialy responsible
8. Brett Peake

The Renaissance Man. Has recovered a sliding career and is more than carrying his own for the Saints. Word is, not so long ago he met a bloke on a beach who had never met before, they got talking, Peake opened up about his footy and his life, and Peake's season turned around. Can't confirm, but it's believed Essendon, Adelaide, Fremantle and Brisbane have search parties looking for the man.

It is quite a legitimate question Con, even if the answer seems obvious.

It was raised a couple of weeks back at a time when a few of the younger kids were, quite rightly, being lauded for their efforts.

Peake being an older guy from another club, and one who hadn't previously been able to cement a spot, wasn't being spoken about. Just thought he needed a bit of recognition.

He's been one of the big improvers this year, I intitially thought he was another dud, but I'm glad to be proven wrong in this case. :lol:
