Chandler put up 97 in Melbourne's 39-point win over Hawthorn at the MCG — second consecutive 90+ score and 22 disposals plus a goal in a game where the lead was established early but not yet a blowout. He's locked in as one of Melbourne's most dangerous forwards, the free agency noise ends with him staying, and the scoring is backing it up. Cash gen is essentially flat at +$776/wk but he's clearing his 62 BE by 35 points. Hold with conviction.
