Vlastuin posted 91 in a 37-point away loss to Adelaide — scoring well above his 55 BE in a tough context, which is actually the mark of a player doing real work when his team is getting beaten. The sell verdicts from R5-R8 have played out; the price is down from $482k to $372.7k and most damage is done. Cash gen is still negative at -$5.5k/rd so the price continues to drift, but at this level with an 89 average and a 55 BE he is covering his costs. Do not buy him in — but if you held through the collapse, the exit trade is no longer urgent. Hold and monitor.
