Rankine scored 64 in Adelaide's 9-point loss to Hawthorn at York Park — 10 below his 74 BE — and did not finish the game, coming off late with what looks like a calf complaint. The calf strain is real and the timeline is 3-6 weeks best case. Cash gen has been negative all season at -$1,568/wk. We called sell in R9 and R10; if you held hoping for a turnaround, that window is now shut by injury. Trade him out this week. Do not wait for scan results — a 3-6 week absence at a $504.9k price shedding value is a dead-money scenario.
