    Me too. He has improved each week he has been down there.

      Unless O'Keefe wants to go home, I wouldn't be trading him either. He is one of the few very good footballers that we have.
      He would be if he was 26. Value diminishes considerably with age. Goodes can still be a Top 10 player (not that he's rated there at the minute) for the next 2 years, beyond that his value will largely depend on how well he works out of the goal square - and that's never really been proven (he's only had one day out in his career when playing that deep). Plus everyone knows, he's a little hit and miss.

      I don't think any of these players (other than the asterixes) should be traded unless a team offers a better pick than the range I've suggested.

        I've been saying it for the last week or so.
        Officially on the Reid and Sumner bandwagon!

          I still think that he would be better up forward, but I thought he was in our best three on Saturday night.

            I'd prefer him forward but he's going OK in the backline.

              He showed last week that he can definitely out-mark his opponents. However I don't recall who he was matched up on.. Play him in the forward line and you'll see an increase in efficiency in forward 50 entries IMO.
