Gallop scored 57 in Brisbane's 64-point destruction of Essendon but suffered a concussion and will miss R9 — Coach Fagan confirmed it post-game. The HBF role under Harris Andrews remains intact and the development trajectory is strong. At $226.9k with a BE of just 33 and 14 games in, the long-term cash cow thesis is fine. Hold if you own him and don't waste a trade. He comes back once he clears protocols.
