Tigers v. Bombers next week

I would have Bowden as Lucas has been beaten lately by smaller opponents like Gram, Brown and O'Brien yets beats bigger opponents.
 
Lot of discussion about the Swan Diver and Hird, but for mine, the real danger and possible match winner is Lucas. He really needs to be shut down, and that's not easy, given he is such a great mark.

King would be too small, and same for Newman. Thursfield is just back from injury, so underdone to play on a class player. How about Gaspar. Oh, that's right, he is no longer with us is he?? Think Bowden may be the best choice.

If Bowden for Lloyd, my next choice is Thursfield or even Jackson and play Polak CHF with Richo out to change with Patto.
 
Strange but it seems to me that even though we are at the bottom, this week there is no pressure.
As long as we have a go. If Essendon lose this they will be under the pump.

Go Tigers
