[Nige]

Interesting that Shaun Edwards didn't make the squad. Is he injured?

[Adamant]

Will be interesting to see what role Swallow plays.

[Jukes]

Who's this bloke currently top of dt scores? B-B-Ben S-S-Statham?

[Nige]

Alex Browne - a potential low-priced backline, injured and subbed off.  :-\

The Zaha man?

[Money]

Dear Stanton and Hibberd, please slow down, I don't want the whole DT world get on board and lose the POD status

Cheers

Prestia out with a very minor calf injury, hoping to play next week
KK out with hamstring tightness wiphich is precautionary.

Zaharakis dominant, Essendons forward line looks good with a mixture of Carlisle, Daniher, Hardingham and Steinberg as the talls

Swallow playing predominantly midfield I think, haven't noticed him much but seems to be going alright according to DT.

prestia said bock hoping for round 3 or 4

i have been impressed with merrett havent looked at his scores or anything but I would imagine he is doing pretty good ... essendon people can he make ya 22 or what ... has decent sort of size for a kid .... looks nice for a forward option ???

swallow doing no harm to selection

jack martin was slow but starting to get the handle on it i think ... what i do notice is that gc seem to have the confidence to give it to him ...

looking forward to the second half

[Danzac]

Sneaky cheap FWD Z.Merrett 11 disp, 4 tackles at half time.
Might not be best 22 yet.

[Bones Bombers]

Zac Merrett will be around the 22. Kommer should keep his spot after a good first year, Jetta will be trying to get back in and Jackson Merrett was ok last season too, so won't be easy for Zac.

[specky92]

Wouldn't think he'd be best 22, Winderlich and chapman still to come in and steal the fwd/mid roles. Will be battling his brother, Dell'Olio, Jetta, Kommer and Colyer for one or two spots

Swallow playing predominantly midfield I think, haven't noticed him much but seems to be going alright according to DT.

44 at half time...not bad... ???
