Soligo scraped 59 in Adelaide's 9-point away loss to Hawthorn at York Park — barely clearing his 53 BE in a genuine contest, but the form line from R10's 108 (blowout inflation) to 59 in a real arm-wrestle tells the story. Cash gen is haemorrhaging at -$5,736/week with no sign of reversal. At $362.7k averaging 66.7 the price is still too high for the output he's producing. Sell — the negative cash gen is structural, not situational, and at under $363k there is still value to save.
