◉ WATCH

Maley was poor in R7 — 23 points in a 52-point flogging at the Gabba against Brisbane, well below his 46.5 average and failing to clear his 32 BE. That result will drag his price. After two solid returns in R5 and R6 that flipped him from avoid to buy, this is a step back and raises questions about his forward role in a team getting beaten badly. Community events are low-confidence noise. Watch — if he produces back-to-back mediocre scores, consider selling before further price erosion.
