Hough managed 63 in West Coast's 6-point home loss to Port — 13 above his 50 BE in a genuine contest. But two straight sell verdicts (R12, R11) and cash gen bleeding at -$1,329/wk from $255k. His 57 average is mid-pricer output at a mid-pricer price. Sell — the inconsistency and negative cash gen persist.

Should I trade Brady Hough?
Form, breakeven, and a comparable replacement weighed up.
Brady Hough deployed as tagger vs Collingwood in R11: held Pendlebury to career-worst Champion Data rating in first half before switching to tag Naicos in second half with less success. Structural tagging role is significant SC signal for his usage pattern.
Brady Hough was deployed to tag Kysaiah Pickett in R9 vs Melbourne and was described as fantastic in the role, limiting Pickett to 1 goal and 14 disposals while still collecting 12 disposals himself. Community immediately asks if Hough can be used as a tagger on dangerous smalls going forward.
Brady Hough having a poor 2026 season for WCE, described as "off" across multiple eagle reviews covering R4 and R5. Noted for surprisingly bad defensive numbers (0 tackles, minimal spoils) and poor disposal. Had an interrupted pre-season which may explain the form dip.
