Wilson posted 70 in Carlton's 5-point away win over Essendon — 38 above his 32 BE as a six-game rookie defender. Two straight buy calls (R12, R11) are validating emphatically. At $276k with a 74 average the price is fair for a rookie showing this ceiling. Buy — job security and scoring upside both present.
