I thought this was going to be a thread on Ken Sheldon.
"...If there has been one recurring theme through this whole shocking mess, it has been the misguided, inflated egos and their ill-judged determination to cling to long-standing old boy friendships. The bad advice that has guided the selfish and culpable James Hird has not only punctuated this saga but symbolised it..."
If Hawthorn want Okeefe so bad it means that boyle isn't good enough for them. And if Boyle isnt good enough for a premiership side then why should boyle be good enough for our premiership side of 09?..

Because they have Roughead and Franklyn we just have Riewoldt...as a permanant forward who can kick goals...And roo leads up the ground

That's one of the dumbest things I have ever heard.

Yup thats the problem... and i don't think he is a top liner but he did look alright last year... The foil for Roo... we need another goal kicker when Kosi goes into the ruck or if roo or kosi r out...

And unlike Thorpe and Dowler who the Hawks may be shopping around, he isnt young either... Would not go near him.. Not even for free....
Broke his leg in each of his first two years in the AFL also. I don't think he shows that much to be honest. Bit-part player, an upgraded version of Charlie Gardiner.
Yes, he plays for another club, therefore he must be crap.

I think we desperately need a third tall forward. Charlie G looked the goods early but I just don't think he's got what it takes.
I'm all for a move for Brad Green or Tim Boyle if we could nab either for a third-round pick. Melbourne will surely get a second rounder for Green so that leaves Boyle, who showed in 2007 what he can do when given the chance.
Leads hard, great hands, would take an enourmous amount of pressure off Riewoldt.

Why not O'Keefe?
We need a young up and coming forward or a quality one, not an average one like Boyle, won't take any pressure off Roo, too much like Kosi, not mobile enough.
