SUMMARY

It's 10th vs 12th at Avalon Airport Oval, as John Lamont's Tigers take on Coburg.

The Lions had a forgettable start to the year, losing their first five games, but have bounced back in recent weeks with three wins from the last five.

It's very much the opposite equation for Werribee; having won their first three games, the Tigers have lost five of their last six.

With several key names missing for the home team, it looms as an intriguing battle.

THE AFL CONTINGENT

North Melbourne (Werribee)

Robin Nahas' call-up to the Roos' side means Werribee will be missing a handy goal-sneak.

Jed Anderson though will be looking to make an impact in the small-forward role, in his second game back.

Key-forward Ben McKay played his best game of the year last week, booting three goals, and will be looking to continue that form, while Aaron Black sits third on the league's goal-kickers' list, despite a couple of lean weeks in front of the big sticks.

Having made the trip to Adelaide as an emergency, Ryan Clarke will look to continue his outstanding progress through the midfield.

THE VFL CONTINGENT

Werribee

Tom Gribble was again a standout for the Tigers last week, while Josh Porter booted two goals.

Former Roo Ben Speight was a welcome sight for just his second senior game of the year.

Coburg

While Coburg has lost seven of its ten matches, its been one of the more competitive sides in the bottom half of the table, boasting a percentage above 98.

Ahmed Saad has played a key role, leading the league's goal-kicking with 24, while Lech Featherstone has booted 18.

Defender Robbie Fox has regularly been among the Lions' best in recent weeks.

Werribee coach John Lamont will be searching for a lift from his players.
