Hannaford managed 22 in a GWS 14-point win over Essendon at Sydney Showground — technically above his 19 BE, but this is the fourth straight dud in a sequence of 16, 63, 20, 20, 22. The 63 in R5 was the outlier; everything else is bottom-of-the-barrel. At $131.9k he is generating barely $600/rd and the GWS midfield remains congested. Three games in and he has not shown he can string consistent output together. Avoid — there is no evidence this role becomes a cash cow. Drop him if you have him and invest the cash elsewhere.
