Watson posted 71 against Fremantle at Perth Stadium in a 15-point loss — 3 goals from 11 disposals in an outstanding first half before Fremantle shut down the space in the second. The fade was structural, not individual: Hawthorn managed only 16 inside 50s after half-time, starving him of entries. He's averaging 96 at $408k and still generating +$2,383/round. Next is Melbourne at the MCG — his favourite stage. Hold with confidence.
