Langdon posted 71 at Traeger Park as Melbourne got belted by 49 by GWS — only 9 above his 62 BE in a team that was getting outclassed. This follows the 105 in R11 but the floor softness keeps showing: 71, 63, 105, 71 is a lumpy pattern. Cash gen is barely positive at $1,365/wk so price is stable. At $421k he is serviceable but inconsistent mid-pricer output. Hold if you have him — the ceiling is real and the price is stable — but don't buy in expecting the 105s every week.

Ed Langdon has been playing full-time defence for about a month (top community comment, corroborated by multiple replies), aligning with Salem going out. Despite carrying MID/FWD DPP status, he has not been spending time forward this year. Community speculating about adding DEF as a third position; consensus is SC mechanics do not allow triple-position assignment. Practical implication: he is functionally a DEF playing under MID/FWD eligibility.
