Setback
Stale POSSIBLE: shoulder-surgery rehab, R6 fitness test (2026-04-24) elapsed 40+ days ago; WCE played R12 without him. Re-promoted only by date-driven auto-promote — no fresh availability signal. Reverting to ACTIVE; surgical return timeline is ~July.
- 3 June
Reassessment
Restore surgical timeline. Shoulder surgery confirmed ~2026-04-29, 9-11 weeks rehab -> early-mid July (originally estimated 2026-07-04 / Round 17). The generic overdue-return-date backfill had clobbered this to 2026-05-31 then 2026-06-06, which the date-driven auto-promote then used to re-promote to POSSIBLE. Corrected during stale-POSSIBLE audit 2026-06-03.
