◉ WATCH

Briggs posted 106 in GWS's 49-point away win over Melbourne at Traeger Park — 42 points above his 64 BE and a genuine bounce-back after the community had written him off with consecutive 'sell' verdicts. The question that matters: is this a genuine resurgence or another spike in a lost season under the new ruck rules? His cash gen is flat at $274/wk because the price hasn't moved yet. The 106 is real and dominant, but the 33 and 92 roller-coaster of the previous month demands follow-up evidence before re-committing. Watch — if he backs this up against a quality ruck next week, the buy window re-opens.

Role Change· T3

Kieren Briggs called out in GWS community as done under new ruck rules because he cannot jump. Community suggesting Briggs will no longer be primary ruck, with Nick Madden expected as primary and speculation about Peter Ladhams as a recruit.
