✕ AVOID

Mark Keane didn't take the field in Round 3 due to injury, making that GREEN intel from earlier look premature—his $419.5k price and 62 BE now represent dead money while he sits on the sideline. With no average, no cash generation, and no return date confirmed, he's untouchable for now. Avoid until he's fit and back in Adelaide's defensive setup.
