— HOLD

Waterman exploded for 96 in West Coast's 30-point home win over Essendon at Perth Stadium — 40 points above his 56 BE and a massive bounce-back from last week's 53. The contested marking remains elite and even with the persistent kicking yips (21% accuracy on the season) the SC output keeps flowing. Cash gen is running at $1,635/week and the price is ticking up from $381k. Hold — this is a positive-trajectory forward who's proven the R7 40 was the floor, not the new normal.
