Bowden is the weakest player on our list. I call him short steps Bowden as he always pulls up short of a contest. Never gets first to the ball unless he is on his own.
What to do?
My suggestion is to try and toughen him up in the backline. Each week give him a job to do.
Eg: Playing Port say keep Cornes quiet. Essendon wear lucas like a glove. Don't give him the oppositions best forward but the second or third best. Melbourne Russel Robertson etc. Try to make him a stopper.
Just a thought as he is not physical enough as a forward.
Any other thoughts?
