Despite a very slow start (45 over first 3), Ryan O'Keefe really turned it on, averaging 108.61 ppg over the remaining 18 games (H&A).
He obviously has a huge ceiling which he reaches often, scoring above 125 every 4_th game! (on average)
He is a player of rare durability missing 3 games since 2005 and averaging 72  90  89  86  97  86  93  97 since then.
With Goodes occupying the forward 50 he has played more midfield but hopefully will keep DPP status

VERDICT: Nearly a Lock if DPP, clearly underpriced. Would cost $512,892 if you don't count his first 3 games and wouyld be the 9_th most expensive player and have the 9_th highest average.

Prediction:  Despite being year older, I expect him to excel again 105 ppg

Haha was just about to do ROK.
Good write-up, his average is severely affected by those 3 games returning from that pre-season knee injury and he still averaged 96!
Underpriced, consistent and a massive ceiling...lock if DPP.

Yeah will strongly consider if forward. Well done to anyone who jumped on him, I thought about it but then didn't have the balls to follow through.

[Windigo]

Seems evergreen and will be a lock if DPP for me.

[Spinking]

ROK burned me a bit in previous seasons, and I steered clear of him in 2012 because of that, however I am definitely considering him for next year. The durability aspect appeals to me after some of the fwd carnage of this year...

[Footy_Boiz]

Had him a few years back but since have told myself he is past it yet to be proved wrong. Will lock if mpp. With the likes of jack and hannerbery on the rise hard to see him tagged to often aswell

[Jukes]

Yeah same as everybody else, massive lock if forward allowed, same as Daisy and Rocky.

Would still consider him if only mid, but can't see him coming into my team as a mid soon.

[Shihan7]

Great write up! He is a lock for me if DPP.

[elephants]

Another underpriced premium!?

Smashed the second half of the year and if he does so to the nab cup next year he will be very hard to ignore, even with all the cheap options!

[Heppell21]

Definitely considering ROK, will be a lock if he gets DPP.

[Hagebear]

Agree with everyone. Lickety lock if DPP.

[Adamant]

A lazy 154 tonight...will be very hard to refuse if DPP.

[/////////////////////////]

No chance of DPP

[Footy_Boiz]

I reckon he will get dpp, already quite a few players losing it we think with the likes of beams, sidebottom, danger etc pretty much guaranteed to lose it I feel they will let him keep it. Lock for me in my fowardline

[Capper]

kicked 20 goal this year so may lose the fwd DPP but may gain back DPP.

Slow start to the year but an absolute cracker of a finish, including the Norm Smith in the GF.

Should be an absolute gun but the Swans generally are the worst scoring team in DT and SC stats

Worth a look though
