    Match Committee - Round 6 vs St. Kilda

    If you were on the Bulldogs match committee what changes would you make for our round 6 match against St. Kilda at Etihad?

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

    Re: Match Committee - Round 6 vs St. Kilda

    Biggs had a good game today with 30 disposals, not sure what happened in the rucks. So need to think this out.

    Clay had a poor game today, so whether we preserver or let him find form at VFL level?

    Ins: Campbell/Minson
    Outs: Cordy

    Hard to change the team from today. Cordy is very average and we need something else. Wallis could do with vfl game if fit. I'd swap Grant for Dickson but I'd be on my own.

    Re: Match Committee - Round 6 vs St. Kilda

    I wouldn't be surprised to see a couple of blokes miss due to soreness. Tough game against big bodies.

    Massive game against St.Kilda - First game of the year were will be expected to win.

    The Grant part or the Dickson part.

    Dickson had 18 disposals and 9 tackles would Grant offer any more. I think Tory chases better than Grant at this stage. I'd have Cordy in my sights but I don't who else after that. Will have to wait to see how they pull up.

    That tackle in the first quarter was a ripper. Grant goes okay with his tackling now but I'd stick with Dickson if only because he is a more accurate set shot.

    Would be a crazy change IMO.

    In- Campbell
    Out- Cordy

    You don't want to change a team after a win like today but obviously Cordy can't stay. Campbell should get an extended run now.

    That would be a break out career defining game for some other players on our list

    Re: Match Committee - Round 6 vs St. Kilda

    In - Campbell/Minson and Hunter
    Out - Cordy, Smith

    Smith needs another run and opportunity to get his hands on the footy more than he is at senior level. Having come back from a knee with two quiet games in the seniors he must be tired and there's no shame in going back for a week or two and regaining some touch.

    Cordy isn't strong enough to compete at this level. As I said in the ruck thread, I believe he has all of the attributes to be a first ruck, except strength, and unfortunately that's a huge part of the role.
