    Match Committee - Round 5 vs Carlton

    If you were on the Bulldogs match committee what changes would you make for round 5 game against Carlton at Etihad?

    As always a brief explanation for your changes would add a lot of value to the discussion.

    Stringer needs to find some form in the seconds, might be a good chance to get the second ruck into the side

    Out- Morris, Stringer
    In- Talia, Campbell

    We will know a bit more after tomorrow's VFL game but at the moment.

    Out - Morris (inj) Stringer (form)
    Ins - Austin, Talia

    Two tall defenders might seem one too many but I think we need to give both of them a chance to impress.
    I'm okay with Minson having to do the work for another week.

    In-Dahlhaus
    Out- Stringer

    Not sure how serious Dahl's calf is. Dixon said Morris thinks his ankle will be OK. Trips have only been getting a reprimand this season, so he should be available.

    Was supposed to be two weeks but Dahlhaus is an auto inclusion if fit. Tutt's probably done enough to keep his spot.

    Higgins was favouring a left shoulder in the last quarter.
    Crameri could also be carrying some sort of groin complaint.
    If the VFL have a good showing I wonder if there will be some resting against Carlton. Although they will be under the pump.

    I will wait for tomorrows match, but would like to see Stringer go back to VFL for a stint.

    Ins could be Dahl, Cordy, Dickson (if he kicks a few tomorrow)

    I think team will be changed based on opposition team, I would say Waite and Garlett will come back in for them. Also like to see how Footscray go and who stands out , I imagine Dickson will come back in if he has another good game, his pressure last week was excellent.

    Re: Match Committee - Round 5 vs Carlton

    It's a bit early to make an informed call when taking injuries (Morris & Dahlhaus) and form of VFL players into account, but I do think both Stringer (more so) and Hunter need a spell.

    Carlton aren't overly tall up forward so as long as Morris comes up I don't think we need to add another tall defender in.

    Assuming Morris & Dahlhaus are ok:

    In: Dahlhaus, Bontempelli
    Out: Stringer, Hunter

    Why Hunter - form, attitude or a rest? I like him, I think every time he has the footy something will happen.
