Naughton delivered 92 in a 12-point away loss to Carlton — the strongest individual performance in a team defeat you can ask for, and well above his 49 BE. The body is holding up since the neck scare, but he's been carrying some physical wear and his scoring has been inconsistent enough that cash gen is still bleeding at -$4,124/week. At $330.3k with a 63.5 average, the price has done most of its damage. Don't buy fresh — he's priced for where he is — but those already in should hold through the form.
