Lewis Hayes is still injured and out of Round 3, continuing a blank run through the opening weeks of the season. At $173.2k with a 25 BE and Essendon's backline offering no obvious vacancy, this remains a hard pass. Don't waste a bench spot waiting on a player with no confirmed role or return date.
