Highly sought-after Giant “100 per cent” committed to GWS despite links to rival clubs

In-demand GWS utility James Peatling has squandered all talks of a move away from the Giants, expressing his desire to resign with the club.

Previously linked to several clubs across the competition, The Sydney native was seemingly spoilt for choice regarding where he would look to play his footy in the coming years.

With his current deal fast approaching its end upon the conclusion of the 2024 season, the utility has confirmed that his loyalties lie with GWS.

“Everything is moving in the right direction,” he told SEN Mornings with Matt White.

“We are just taking our time with it, we wanted to focus on the finals and me playing consistent football because that’s something I haven’t done yet.

“Everything is trending in the right direction, and I love where this club is at so, hopefully we can get something done soon.”

When asked if he intended on staying put at the Giants, Peatling’s answer was as clear as day.

“Yeah, 100 per cent.”

With the contract talk put to bed, the former mid-season draftee can put all attention towards the Giants’ Semi-Final clash with Brisbane this coming Saturday.
