Close scored 50 in a 4-point away loss to Carlton at the MCG — above his 38 BE by 12 in a genuine contest. But six rounds of sell verdicts have been right and one above-BE score changes nothing. He's bleeding -$2,770/wk with a 44.5 average at $258.6k, permanently fringe in a stacked Geelong forward line. Trade him this week — stop the cash bleed before the price drops further.
