2007 AFL Draft Prospect: Jay Bowden
Name: Jay Bowden
Height: 184
Weight: 74
State: Tasmania
Club(s): Glenorchy
AFL Positions:
He has shown an ability to perform wherever the coach puts him. He could be at his best on the wing, or he could be played at half back and has also been used as a forward.
Perfect Fit For:
The Swans need some youth added to their team, and in some ways if they take a player from Tasmania they can eliminate the possibility of a player wanting to return to their home state. Bowden could fit in well with their other players who rotate through the midfield and forward area.
AFLinsider.net prediction:
The Bulldogs have lost a few players who were around the same size as Bowden, so in a later round they might pick him. While not as athletic as these players, Bowden could eventually fill the spot of someone like Montgomery in the back line, Robbins up forward or Faulkner as a midfielder.
AFL Fantasy Outlook:
Probably a late pick so he won't arrive at a club that expects him to play a lot. So unlikely to be on many fantasy teams next year.
