Nash returned from his concussion-protocol absence to post 62 in Hawthorn's 9-point home win over Adelaide at York Park — back on the park is the good news, but 62 in a genuine 9-point contest is 3 above his 59 BE and well under his 79 average. Cash gen is essentially flat at -$88/wk and the price has stalled at $402k. He's returned, he's above BE, and that's about all you can say. Hold without urgency — don't trade him unless you have a genuine upgrade destination ready; but don't expect the price to move until he strings together an 80+ run.
