2019 JLT Series - Match 2 Western Bulldogs v St Kilda
Key forward Josh Schache has been named for the Western Bulldogs’ second 2019 JLT Community Series clash, against St Kilda on Sunday afternoon.
The Bulldogs have named an extended 30-player squad for the clash at Ballarat’s Mars Stadium.
Schache, who was named in the extended squad for last week’s clash with the Gold Coast Suns but was not named in the final team, kicked three goals in a VFL practice match against Box Hill Hawks and has been named at centre half forward.
The extended 30-player squad remains the same as for round one of the JLT Community Series, with the Bulldogs to again field a strong side.
With up to eight players permitted on the bench for the pre-season matches, the Bulldogs’ extended squad will be reduced to a between 22 and 26 players at 5pm tomorrow.
Those not selected in the final team are expected to line-up in for Footscray Bulldogs in a VFL practice match at Sandringham, also at Mars Stadium, at 12.30pm on Sunday.

Looks like we are fielding a strong team, hope the forwards get a good look at it this week as they are easy pickings and should run us into the season choc full of confidence
BB.
Looking forward - Naughton, Darcy and JUH. It will be the envy of everyone.

Re: 2019 JLT Series - Match 2 Western Bulldogs v St Kilda
Be nice to see at least one of Cavarra/Greene to get a run there is a lot of sameness about last weeks group particularly forward, I think we have gone a little safe with selections.
Great to see Schache in the starting line up has to play surely.
Any sign of lynch?

Fair to say that these 18 players start in Round 1?
And Suckling, Williams and English in too?
So leaves one spot to be decided. Who should it be?
The fight is here; I need ammunition, not a ride.

There is so much ball winning ability in that side but gee we lack leg speed and some natural forward instinct. I'm hoping Cavarra gets a chance on Sunday to impress.

Aye, demonstrates perfectly how vital a fit JJ is to us.

How did we end up, after multiple drafts, with only one good quick player?

Just got another one, Smith. Lynch yet to prove his worth. If you kick the ball well speed is not as critical. Unfortunately we don't.
But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

Will miss JJ early on. Need his run if half back.

Hasn’t Wallis shown enough to have that small, goal kicking forward role locked away? He isn’t quick but has shown himself to be very effective in the f50. I guess Lipinski is a bit one paced but overall our leg speed is ok. JJ is super quick but it didn’t help him break tags last year...
I think the leg speed comments I am hearing are a bit over the top - Adelaide have build an awesome group of midfield/half back runners and I don’t think they have any genuine speedsters...no one is suggesting that the crouch-crouch-Sloane-Gibbs group is too slow...
What should I tell her? She's going to ask.

I like Wallis resting forward, but I want a forward that plays forward not forward mid wing. How do you build continuity down there? Give me Dickson, Greene and potentially Cavarra( why not play him in JLT?) any day forward over Dunkley Wallis Hayes Linpinksi. Our midfield is deep enough now Libba is back surely we can afford to play Schache and a smaller type permanently down there. Gowers can even go midfield if we are so desperate for flexibility.

I don’t think English will play round 1. Trengove will ruck with schache and Cordy giving him a chop out of 5-7 mins each quarter.

If English doesn't play then it's likely we won't have anyone from the 2016 draft playing either with Lipinski, Lewis Young and Greene just not quite on the radar. I've got high hope for Lipinski along with English though.
I'm not sure if that is a sign of strength or an unbalanced list or that we haven't quite developed the players as we would have hoped for but you would expect a couple of them to be right in the selection process.

I think all Lipinski, Greene and English are all in the mix. Young is just too untidy by foot/prone to TO.
Maybe they are a little behind where we would like but all of them seem to be talented...
