◉ WATCH

Jack Dalton made his AFL debut in R7 with 35 — modest, but it clears his rock-bottom 17 BE and confirms the call-up scouts flagged all preseason. At $113.5k the entry cost is almost free; the question is whether he holds a spot for R8. One game is not enough to confirm role lock — watch for selection before committing cash.
