Loan watch is back for another season and currently, the Glovers have three members of the first team squad out on loan.
Let’s start at Dorchester, where the Magpies lost out in dramatic circumstances to Welsh side Merthyr Town FC – the game ended 3-2.
Ollie Haste, started the game with number 11 on his back and helped create a number of first half opportunities for his side.
Whilst Haste played for the full 90, Benjani Jr had to wait for his chance from the bench, he was introduced into the game on 65 minutes as a replacement for another Ex-Glover Jordan Barnett.
One of Merthyr’s goals also came from the boot of a former Huish Park player – Alex John.

Meanwhile, down at Taunton, Malachi Linton played 83 minutes as the Peacocks got off to a winning start in the National League South against Braintree.
Linton was replaced by Nick McCootie late in the game with the score already at 2-1 to the Somerset side.
