Amon delivered 96 in R10 — 24 above his 72 BE and the fourth consecutive quality output after the three-ton run of 108, 113, 125. Price has plateaued near $493k with cash gen barely negative at -$1,056/wk, meaning the growth story is done but the production isn't. The kick-in role at HAW is locked and delivering. Hold him; there is no reason to move.

Role Change· T3

Karl Amon returned to Hawthorn's line-up for R5 vs Western Bulldogs after missing time with injury. Review rated him 8.0/10 and noted his return adds class to the backline even if he had a few uncharacteristic turnovers likely due to the layoff.
