My POD did good
Goodes was great in the first game but a bit slow to start in the 2nd one
Blair was good
Kyle Martin was impressive but he is on the rookie list
Lin Jong was good but also rookie listed
Gia teased everyone again
Lower was great in the first game but a bit slower in  the 2nd

Probably Ryder. He looked damn impressive!
Shocking
Bell chambers was much more impressive

well guys here are a few thoughts of mine on the good the bad and the downright ugly

Essendon VS Bulldogs

Essendon
Nick Kommer - can find the pill and kicking looked good
Michael Hurley - Great contests usually taking on 3 -not for fantasy-
Brendon Goddard - Flew under the radar but still racked up 14 touches
Dyson Heppell- Looked good played in middle involved alot

Bulldogs
Matthew Boyd - Can still find it at will
Brett Goodes - good poise and effective found it a bit

Bulldogs vs Collingwood

Bulldogs
Brett Goodes -  good poise and effective found it a bit hard at it
Lin Jong - butchered it to start maybe nerves but found heaps of the ball
Clay Smith - found alot in the midfield

Collingwood
Dane Swan - Is bloody Everywhere
Brent Macaffer - only couple touches but looked poised when he had it
Jordan Russell - Ball wasn't near him alot but did ok when near him
Travis Cloke - going by this game might turn into a non fantasy type got bloody lucky to score that well

Essendon Vs Collingwood

Essendon
Brendon Goddard - didn't fly under the radar this time may have had less touches then first game but impact was more noticeable
Dyson Heppell - got better and better as the night went on finishing strongly

Collingwood
Jordan Russell - after first game nerves are over seemed to step up more played brillantly
Pendlebury - was quiet first half and decided to start moving up a gear in 2nd half find more of the footy
Brent Macaffer - couple of touches early but then died right out
Travis Cloke - poor again 6 touches 2 marks 1.1 ark and point come from pack mark went up about 30 cm behind pack by himself and goal came from free kick 2 other touchs were gifts too
not looking good being beaten in marking contests to easily is he missing his glove?

Ben Sinclair - i liked the look of him looked very lively around the goals quick ad clean pick ups and quick to get ball on foot

and for other essendon supporters out there in a non fantasy scoring type player but good for the bombers here are a couple of thoughts

Jake Carlise - Hands looked great in marking contests against bulldogs was good against pies aswell bit more quiter but still good except for silly free kick to trav cloke at end

Michael Hurley - Great contests usually taking on 3 against bulldogs and more quiet against pies but still provides good contests

Tayte Pears- all the talk about his preseason being good and looking in great shape was true looked good out there (only played 2nd game against pies but held his own against the Big Q)

BTW: same thing i posted in DT board but thought i would post here cause some people do not play both forms so do not visit both boards  ;)

Was there any SuperCoach scoring? ???

Its really not that helpful in these small round-robin style games anyway. Cant stand them!

No one said nick lower yet?? Look like he has fit in real well at the dogs

My old teammate Marto looked good

Heppel wasn't disgraceful and BJ was doing his thing as per usual
