May bounced back with 81 in ESS's 18-point road loss to Richmond — his best score of the season and a genuine counter-cyclical return in a proper contest. After the damaging 28 in R10 that had the exit conversation starting, this flips the script: well above his 36 BE, well above his 47.5 average, and the kind of score that means the vest concern from earlier rounds is not the story. Cash gen was sliding negative but this pulls it back. Buy the reversal — he's earned another week.
