Keays posted 77 in Adelaide's 68-point demolition of North Melbourne — three consecutive above-BE scores (111, 65, 77) is the form signal the R9 buy verdict was built on, and he delivered again. Cash gen is still negative at -$3,104/wk meaning his price hasn't turned yet at $386.1k, but the scoring trajectory is pointing up. The buy thesis is intact — hold if you own him, and the price recovery story is coming.

Ben Keays heavily criticised for just 1 disposal to half-time vs Fremantle. Community flagging a severe underperformance from a usually reliable midfielder.
