They are kids, particularly O’Keeffe who, as a December foal is remains 18 yo through the season. Has a long way to go, but an absolute pup in the elite game. Had very little ruck time behind Mirkov (and Pitt and TDK at times) slow burn, but will be genuine AFL quality in time.
Lemmey, I am not as certain about. Has the tools, but a little “flakey” at times. Could go either way. I remain convinced he will be better suited as a defender.
Our approach to our ruck stocks is weird, I've never seen Mirkov live or O'Keefe but you and many others all say the same thing. SO if either TDK or Pitt gets an injury, neither of our other two ruckman are in a position to step up, even if for just one game.
