Up to ROK, isn't it? I'd prefer he stayed, he has a lot more to offer, especially through midfield/forward. And he seems to fit very well with the rest of the team. But if he decides to go, nothing less than a first round pick would do.He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team.

All this sounds like there are going to be some trades, activity aplenty.Comment

No, No, No. Hell No. O'Keefe is a gun with plenty left to offer, a great bloke on and off the field. If I was to choose a team with any player I wanted, O'Keefe would be in it. Kerr wouldn't, he's a good player but an absolute tool, not to mention one of the dirtiest players in the comp.
We need quality mids but not at the expense of ROK.Comment

Keep him at all costs.The difference between insanity and genius is measured only in success.Comment

If he was to be traded for a 1st and a late 2nd rounder i would be fine with him leaving, would love to see him stay but if we could secure a quick mid and a kp from the draft it would work better for us in the long termComment

Well the marketing department will certainly have some re-jigging to do if this sorry excuse for a story grows some legs......#5 is THE cover shot in the 09 members guide....saw it this week in an exclusive preview...no more details as death will have to result...... but, don't think he will go myself, the story is rather a beat up in my view, but reckon the marketing team will be getting their cameras out just to be on the safe side.Patterns emerge, but do they mean anything? No.Comment

I'd pull out all stops to keep ROK. It sounds like he wants to stay with money being the disputed issue at the moment.
I'd like to keep Hall too, but if we can finagle a late 1st rounder/high 2nd rounder for him I would accept that. The rumour is he wants to go back to Melbourne. I'm not sure what is so urgent for Barry that he has to move now rather than do it when he retires in 1-2 years time. And anyway, didn't he move out of Melbourne to escape the intense scrutiny by the footballing journalists down there?Comment

The Bulldogs look like they're in their prime but they need a big forward if they're any chance to win the flag in the next 1-2 years. The premiership window for Sydney is pretty much shut now and if Hall wants to play in another premiership side before he retires, best chance it's with the Bulldogs.I only support one team: The SYDNEY SWANS!!!!! :adore

Would be kinda irronic if the person who brought Hall to the Swans would then be the one to lure him away from the Swans. Maybe Eade knows how Hall's mind works.Comment

They need to throw the cheque-book at O'Keefe and let him fill it out himself. Can't afford to lose him.
Hall... that one is slightly different. I'd be shattered if he left because I love him, and seeing him in enemy colours would be demoralising, but there would be slight benefits if we got a high draft pick.
Still, Hall is one of the main draws for our club. We need him for more than his on field performance.Grandson of South Melbourne legend Keith Schaefer.Comment
