Sweet managed just 51 in Port's 25-point away loss to Gold Coast at Marrara — missed his 74 BE by 23 points and his worst score in several rounds. After 82 in R9 (a near-miss) this is a second consecutive below-average performance from a player who was averaging 112. The away trip to Darwin might explain some of it but the trend is a flag. Cash gen is still positive at +$1,424/wk but that flips quickly if scores stay in the 50s. He's still the best ruckman available but watch for an explanation — don't trade on one bad week, but don't captain him until he bounces back with a 100+.

Sweet's early-season scores attributed to easiest ruck fixture (Essendon, West Coast, Richmond without Nankervis). Expected to regress as fixture hardens.
Community Intel· T3
Community discussion on Jordan Sweet as a replacement ruck option. Concern raised that his scores may be inflated by weak opposition faced in first 3 rounds, with 4 other rucks averaging better.
