Day Wicks posted 65 in Essendon's 43-point home capitulation against Fremantle — his best return in three rounds, scored against the grain when the whole team fell apart. His teammate May posted just 28 in the same game, which frames how meaningful the 65 actually is. At $240.1k with $5,171/wk cash gen still ticking, the cash cow thesis is intact and bouncing back. Buy — the price will move before the field notices.
