Where do I find the "reasonable, balanced Lions supporter" you talk about? LOL. Not on our forum that's for sure because if you look back, there are much more negative comments than positive ones. Our expectations of this kid astounds me. In saying that, I am interested in what value our BF supporters would think he could be used for as trade bait give his year as outlined in my last post.
Easy answer: none because he won't and shouldn't be traded.

Look we all get that you're related to or good friends with one of the lions players, quite possibly Eric himself, and as such are very protective of him. However I think you're blowing this up far too much tbh. For every 1 post putting some slight criticism on him theres several more in support or tempering what we should expect of him at this stage in his career. Clearly you're fishing for support on this to re-affirm the ability of a friend or family member, but to say there's many more negative ones than positive is wide of the mark.

Got me pegged Fatcat except for the player &/or relative or friend. I wanna say Stef Martin or Charlie Cameron please. lol.
Its just a simple topic of conversation on the 2018 Trade & FA Thread that I thought would generate some interesting comments on what he is worth. Isnt this the place to discuss such a topic? I don't get the criticism for the discussion. WTF?

Fagan would know him very well so if there was the slim chance he comes to us, Fagan would know what to expect and know how to handle him. He's an Ex hawk and any ex hawk that comes to Brisbane I would believe Fagan thinks they will make us a better side.
omggggggggggggggggggggggg

Just read Keays wanting out to a vic club to get more opportunity.....not sure why a vic club which leads me to doubt this rumour. Looked very serious in the Neafl highlights tho not clapping any of the goals that I saw.

Ben has been well and truly passed by our young emerging group of mids, only played 2 games for us this year, IMO would be worth nothing on the trade table other than maybe and few spots upgrade via a swap of picks in the 3rd/4th round.

I think it might be Lions2020 (correct me if I’m wrong) who has been saying for quite some time that if we continued not to play him he would look for opportunity elsewhere.
Which would be a bummer as my mother was just handed a signed guernsey from him on the ground after Sunday’s game as part of members round.

I will admit that during the latter part of the season I was wondering if Keays to Gold Coast was a possibility.

Mitch McGovern has requested a trade. I don’t think we should be into him but it might be one of those trades which holds up a lot of other trades given the Crows will be looking to get up the order
