Keays just loves footy. Reckon he'd be happy to take base pay as a rookie on your extended list and would absolutely boss the NEAFL at worse. Reckon he's the perfect player to take advantage of the extra rookie spots.

What would be the aim in recruiting him?
Is not better than our midfielders (Brodie, Miller, Swallow, Bowes, Fiorini, Ellis, Greenwood, MAcpherson, Miles, Weller) Might be better than Powell, Rowell, Anderson right now, but no way I'm giving him a game over any of them

Is not better than our forwards (Ainsworth, Rankine, Sexton, Lemmens)

We would have to abolsutely decimated for him to get close to a game I'd reckon.
If we're recruiting him to just be a NEAFL body.. we've got enough GHS.. already.

Yes, we would be crazy to consider Keays even for NEAFL. He is a terrible disposal. We will most probably have to move some of our mature players on rookies list (C. Ellis, GHS, Young, ...). The rest is for academy players who may actually turn out goods. Powell over Keays every time even now. I would not mention Rowell and Anderson when talking about Keays.

Fair call if you're looking to add best 22 Calibre players to the team through the rookie list.

Can you tell me why we would want him on the rookie list though - what does he add to our club?
Would rather bring on Ace, and consider Gore or Conroy.

NEAFL depth as a forward mid. I'm not that familiar with the suns ssconds, did you have many players that dominated at NEAFL level?

It really just boils down to how you're going to use the concessions. If you disagree that's cool.

Lions fans who frequent our board keep saying that Keays is an inside midfielder who is asked to play forward.
I don't think we need to bring in a 26 year old in order to dominate the NEAFL.

We just delisted Brad Scheer who was 22 and did the same thing.

Keays is also 22.

What do you reckon GcSunsfan - what are you looking for him to provide to the team?
I was a big fan of bringing Ben Keays in last year when there was rumours of us looking at him.

I reckon he can be a very good inside midfielder he covers the ground well and can go forward and kick goals.

Way better then 4-5 players already on our list
 
We have listed players that are nowhere near as good as Keays and Walker.

I would look at Keays and Walker. Good age demographics. Something to prove. Rookie list.

Keays and Walker can come in for some of our own older blokes that are list fillers.
Not sure why those of us that are open to finding spots for them have to be put down.
It’s just opinion.
Where is the put down?
I didn't resort to calling anyone names.

Yeah but these guys Heron, Schoenfeld etc.. are all contracted.
If we've got the cash to pay out contracts and delist those guys I'm ok with that.
Was just thinking about it from a capacity of either having Keays or a rookie academy kid.

Because thats essentially the choice isn't it? Do you think we are going to delist players mid contract?

He's kicked 11 goals in 30 games playing as a small pressure forward with a bit of mid time perhaps. Not exactly lighting up the scoreboard.
