Haynes posted 66 in Carlton's 12-point home win over the Bulldogs — clearing his 57 BE and looking solid in context. But the cash gen is still negative at -$2,186/rd and his price has bled from $432k down to $386.8k across the season. The sell verdict from R9 was right and remains right; the window keeps closing. Sell him this week — a veteran averaging 67 at $386.8k with no ceiling upside is a cash drain you cannot afford to hold.
