You underestimate what he brings to the team300k as a UFA, which is about 100, maybe even 150k more then the maximum I'd offer for him.
Not a lot of salary, but enough to be truly uncomfortable for a player like this who is really in no mans land on our list.
We got 2 x 1sts from them for a floating intercept defender.Geez Melbourne.
If we are getting a first for Keith even with something coming back, you'd have to think very seriously on that one. Guys playing the third tall can be replaced
Anyone playing as an intercepting half back at Adelaide looks like a champion.It’s sad because Lever would have turned into a champion here. Was tracking brilliantly.

I guess they’ve realised he’s not a key defender and now they need to back to the market.
Maybe they think Keath can play forward, I reckon he could.JFC, what is wrong with Melbourne, is SOS outsourcing?
He played a bit through the SANFL.Maybe they think Keath can play forward, I reckon he could.

No you wouldn’t say no to a top 5 pick for a 28 year old Keath but we aren’t getting that for Keath.So would you give up a top 5 pick...even with 19 back, to play him in the F50? I like Keath, think he has done a great job this year but he isn't playing a role you'd go to the bank with cap in hand over; especially for a role he isn't playing.
I'm happy for them to do it though

At the moment it’s speculation, I suspect when push comes to shove they won’t pursue him if the cost is too highSo what are they trading?
I mean we are talking about a guy who will definitely be in the AA extended squad, possibly the team and they are going to offer 600k to get him. Isn't like they can say they will get him for free in the draft, no way he goes into, no way they let him if they are thinking 600k per season.
In fairness to Alex, at 28 years, he has one shot at a 2-3 contract on decent coin. If I was in his shoes, I would be backing myself to have a strong second half of the season and then considering all offers.

Keath is a gun who has plenty of good years left as a late starter.
With the decline of Talia he is a must keep.
Keath & Doedee across half back gives us arial supremacy not seen by us since the Smart & Hart days...
If you think they are going to push all of those 4 out you obviously don't know our club. Yes they should .Very easy to delist is Sauce, Otten, Dougie and Mackay. Do it in a heartbeat making the 3 list changes exceptionally easy. Bring CEY up from rookie list is a 4th. Trade out Knight, we’ve better options now from recent draftees. That’s 5 without blinking.
We can't afford to lose Keath.Timing is important though. Talia will probably play for 2 more years on good coin. Can we afford to keep Keath as well given we’ll be needing to pay big coin. Might squeeze Harto out which I think will be a problem as Talia is better when Harto is in the side and that’s not reducing as Talia’s body ages.

Not sure he’s that crucial, he’s very good though obviously.We can't afford to lose Keath.
I would trade either Hartigan or Talia if it came to that to keep Keath.

We are a soft touch for interstate club. So much tied up in the older player and not resigning player soon enough. Keith should have been signed at the start of the year.
This is actually the club's bread and butter for getting good draft picks if we insist on a non-bottoming out policy.... Keath cost us nothing, is 27 and unlikely to play anymore than 100 games at best. Turning him into a good 1st round pick won’t be the end of the world

You underestimate what he brings to the team
Not that I am for letting either go at all, but they would both be ideal for Gold Coast - Greenwood as the big bodied mid to help their younger mids and Keath as a very competent defender to help their younger guys out. What would both be worth as a package? - maybe their own 2019 1st rounder if we also included our 2nd rounder (not the carlton one)Package Greenwood and Keath maybe. Got a feeling that Hugh will be gone given his public statement that he’s ready to sign but has heard nothing from the club. His manager will be receiving preliminary offers as we speak.
