    Always Right Match Committee Thread Round 21, Vs Essendon

    Welcome to the Always Right Match Committee Thread. The Match Committee threads has been named after long time WOOF member Always Right who tragically passed away in March 2018.


    If you were on the Western Bulldogs match committee what changes would you make after our Round 20 match against Brisbane for our Round 21, 2019 match against Essendon at Marvel Stadium?

    For those new to these threads, please give a brief explanation for your changes ... this would add a lot of value to the discussion.

    Dunks and Crozier might both struggle to get up

    Out: JJ(some of his tackling efforts were ordinary), Suckling (time for the NFL) and Dickson (time catches up with everyone)

    In: Williams, West, Lewis Young

    They won't drop Wood but he must be close

    Totally agree on your three outs. Both JJ. and Suckling have been protected for far too long. Dickson’s lack of pace showed up badly today. Lac Young also needs to be considered perhaps at the expense of Williams who appears to be on the outer.

    Play Williams so we can hopefully get his currency up as they obviously don't want him next year.

    You don't get games of AFL given to you, especially when you're notionally still in the hunt for finals. Judging by reports he also had a shocker today for Footscray.

    Suckling was given a game today.

    Williams had 15, 16, 16, 17, 17, 17, 19 = 117 possessions in 7 games before he was dropped.
    Crozier had 13, 14, 14, 14, 15, 16, 19 in his last 7 games before Williams was dropped.
    Richards had 6, 7, 9, 9, 12, 12, 23 = 78 possessions in 7 games at the same time.

    Williams usually kicks the ball.

    Is he really that bad? What is going on?

    Wood had 12 today and has averaged about that all year and is regarded as good enough. I'm not sure stats matter that much with some of the selections

    Can't be worse than Cordy at the moment or Trengrove. Jackson and Zaine both look really down on confidence with the ball in hand. Williams took the game on a fair bit last time. Encouraged by what I saw.

    Problem is Williams isn’t a replacement for either Trengrove or Cordy.
    More of an In Bruges guy?
