— HOLD

Mackenzie posted 69 in a 39-point loss to Melbourne — 17 above his 52 BE despite Hawthorn being demolished, which makes it a cleaner score than it looks on paper. That is four consecutive above-BE rounds and the match rating was strong (23 disposals, 4 clearances). Cash gen is still marginally negative but stabilising. At $352k with a 63.5 avg he is not inspiring but he is no longer costing you. Hold — four rounds of above-BE consistency is a foundation, not a trigger to move.
