Ones to Watch:

Benjamin Newton has started off the 2020 season strongly, following on from a dominant backend to last season. The clearance specialist has been averaging 19 disposals per game whilst hitting the scoreboard regularly. The Lions forwards love the ball in his hands, so expect him to have a significant impact forward of centre as the Lions break away from stoppages.

Gregory Clark continues to play a vital role for the Lions with his pressure acts and physicality around the contest, averaging 6.7 tackles per game across his last 10 matches. After only laying two last weekend, expect him to once again assert himself on the opposition and put pressure on the ball carrier.

Subiaco more than doubled Peel Thunder last weekend in the inside 50 count, with every player bar four registering at least one. Leigh Kitchin collected eight of his own from 28 disposals, expect him to do much the same again as the Lions look to drive the ball forward and get on top in the contest.
