Here's the deal
Keogh expects every single trade to be a success or the club is a disaster.
Singling out Saad is bizarre.

I missed that criticism. Yep bizarre.
I thought Saad and Williams are the only 2 who put the burners on and give us some creativity, week in week out.
Ask yourself what impact do they have on the result.
They both play as loose defenders
Why not try Saad further up the ground where we can use his pace to pressure. It’s sadly lacking in our game. Saad has played one position his whole career
On $650000 for 5 years and a first pick he needs to be more versatile
Williams had the most ineffective 36 possessions against GC
He has been tryed up the ground and no good.
Add Docherty as the third small defender.
They don’t impact the game enough.
I repeat we won’t take the next step unless we become better as a team when the opposition has the ball in space. Not just when the ball is in our defensive half
Saad and Williams should be at their peak in their footy careers
As you guys know I have had a problem with our overall recruiting strategy since 2018 when we gave up the farm for Setterfield and McGovern
It’s a general thought I have
Not that I expect every trade to be a success
The Brad Hill trade is ridiculous and he is only playing well because the team has improved overall
But overall the Saints and the Dockers have really got some gold with some late and rookie picks
