Why do we want O'Keefe? We have a pretty good list of small forwards.

Judd is a difficult proposition. You'd have to weigh up the costs of the players forgone, as well as the increased salary cap, against the benefits of him playing. Personally I think one player doesn't make much of a difference even as good as Judd. If we throw away two of Didak, Shaw, Pendlebury, Thomas and maybe a high draft pick for Judd we may be heading back towards the days where Buckley carried the team in mid to late 90s after the likes of O'Bree, Licuria, Burns, Rocca, Clement, Presti, Lockyer, Holland, Buckley are winidng up/gone.

The real mistake was actually drafting Bowman Nixon (yes that's his full first name). A utility type in the TAC Cup who actually played alot of CHF, didn't have any qualities whatsoever to excel in any one position.

so the most you'd give up for a gun like ROK is a complete dud and a below average player?

O'Keefe would cost alot more than Medhurst and Lonie.

He's a sensational gut busting half forward - we're talking a draft pick + Presti + Thomas

And I don't think I'd give that up for O'Keefe. Certainly wouuld for Judd though, throw in Rusling as well, as the Weagles would want a potential key forward.
 
we don't need o'keefe i have complete faith in our recruiting staff to keep racking up stars like thomas and pendles. i feel it would be a step in the wrong direction.
 
Ryan O'Keefe is a good player but we definately dont need that type of player at the moment. (Davis, Didak and Medhurst basically all do the same thing)
