Atkins posted 31 in Geelong's 54-point home dismantling of Collingwood at the MCG — and that context makes it worse, not better. A premium MID averaging 89 scoring 31 in a half-century win is either managing an injury or completely out of the game plan. Cash gen is -$5,129 per week already, and after the R5 133 outlier he has since gone 83, 75, 73, and now 31. Sell this week — a 31 in a Geelong blowout is the canary in the coal mine, and at $407k he has room to fall further.
