Essendon

Zach Merrett has scored 100pts or more in an elite 91.7% of games this season.

He has been used at 74.9% of centre bounces this season, in Round 12 against Richmond he recorded a season high 88.6% centre bounce usage likely as a result of the Andrew McGrath injury. 

The reliance on Merrett should be high on Sunday, ownership will likely be moderate to strong. 

Essendon

Since moving into the midfield permanently earlier this season the numbers for Darcy Parish have exploded. 

He has averaged 132.9pts from his last 7 games.

Expect strong usage through the midfield on Sunday, ownership will likely be strong.
