Jeffrey delivered 95 in Gold Coast's comfortable 29-point home win over St Kilda at Marrara Oval — 34 above his 61 BE. Two consecutive above-BE scores now (106 in R8, 95 in R9) after the rough patch in R5-R6. The form is clearly back and the Gold Coast defender role is re-confirmed. Cash gen is still negative at -$1,395/wk but two rounds of above-BE scoring will swing that. Hold — the R6 sell call played out, but so has the R8 recovery.
