    I also think we should avoid recruiting to "replace" O'Keefe (in terms of where he plays on the field)

    Definitely a warranted critcism early in his career but I reckon he has improved that side of his game.

As I understand they usually nominate a pretty high price to scare off other clubs.
    Nico, that's exactly what he said, he just left out a comma after not.

    Agree with that.

    I was always under the impression he was softish, but a few years ago he took a super courageous mark running with the flight of the ball into a pack.

    Not sure if he surprised even himself, but since that point he has been pretty courageous.

    Shame about the age but I do like the thought of him taking kickouts as we seem hell bent on maintaining the worst kickout tactics in the league.

    He's a beautiful long kick. We could use him like the 'Dogs use Gilbee.

    I can't believe anyone is okay with the idea of us taking Wheatley.
