Turner posted 113 in Melbourne's 39-point home demolition of Hawthorn — well above his 57 BE and now averaging 103 with cash gen ticking back positive at $324/wk. The price plateau from R8 is over; he's back generating value. At $387.9k averaging 103, this is a legitimate premium DEF printing consistent above-breakeven output in a locked Melbourne role. Hold with conviction.
