Gruzewski delivered 81 in GWS's 49-point away win over Melbourne at Traeger Park — 46 points above his 35 BE and a massive outlier from a season spent scoring 35-44. At 21 games the cash cow window is long closed and the $241.6k price has barely moved from his $195.5k starting point. Cash gen at $1,707/wk is minimal and the value score of 0.149 is well below the 0.2 threshold. The 81 is a spike, not a new baseline — his previous nine scores are 36, 35, 44, 35, 42, 36, 41, 49, 42 with nothing above 50. Take the spike and redirect the cash to a genuine premium or keeper. Sell him.
