1. Sweet deserves an opportunity at some point and against Pittonet , with Kruezer out, is as good a time as ever to see how he goes.
2. English and Sweet don't have to be on the ground at the same time.
3. English based on recent form will give them problems with his around the ground work.
4. I would guess that Sweet has played on wet grounds before ?

Dickson's smarts and ability to nail the basics on what might be a slippery night (and in QLD it always seems a bit slippery at nights regardless of whether it rains) should help.
I'm not the world's biggest Hayes fan, but we are losing a bit of pace and outside run - and this IS his attribute . I'd be surprised if he isn't in the team.
Be interesting to see how we approach the Docherty & Kade Simpson situation. It is certainly a week to avoid having the extra forward up around the stoppages as we will need to make those two accountable as much as possible. And with the way that the Carlton defenders sit back behind the ball it is really important that we not only PLAY Schache, but that he competes with the same mindset as he did last week. For me, the highlight play of the week which started with Rhylee West's physicality, was how Shaq competed and then was smart enough to dash back towards goal once he saw Bruce was going to get the loose ball. Thats exactly how you'd hope for two talls to be working together.
Surely it's Vanda and Jong

1. Winning is more important than giving a player a chance (deserving or not). You can get away with playing mids/flanker types for the experience without too much detriment, but I don't think you can add a second ruckman without severely impacting our gameplan. Chances are English will cop an injury or need a rest at some point and then Sweet will get his chance.
2. Yes they do. English is averaging 89% TOG this season, almost all of that in the ruck. I assume you are proposing cutting his TOG, depriving us of one of our best and most important players over the last 3 weeks? Say he drops back to 70%, Sweet only plays 30%? It would almost be like being down a rotation. Add in 1 or 2 game ending injuries like we have had the past 2 weeks and we have a big problem with this approach.
3. Yes he will, whilst he is playing in the ruck. You are proposing playing him in the ruck less and otherwise resting him on the bench? I don't see how this strategy will advantage us.
4. I never mentioned the wet, but since you brought it up playing 2 ruckmen in the wet along with 2 tall forwards doesn't seem a great strategy to me.

Re: Always Right Match Committee Vs Carlton Round 6 2020
Outs: Jong, Crozier
Ins: Hunter, Piggy
Like for like.
Feeling that Vander and Smith will be ok to play given they weren't fully concussed. I'm sure if it's up to how they feel they'll play. There's really little sense in bringing in a 6'7 bloke if it's going to be wet. Stoppages won't be clean anyway I'd prefer the extra rotation.
But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

That's actually the most predictable team announcement this season I reckon. Sweet and Gardner are often emergencies, Hunter and Suckling were the front runners to come in and Porter and Butler make sense if Smith and Vanda don't come up.

Re: Always Right Match Committee Vs Carlton Round 6 2020
Yes I’d say the ultimate lineup will depend on Smith and Vandermeer and the weather. Although not sure where Sweet fits in

Re: Always Right Match Committee Vs Carlton Round 6 2020
Where's Lachie Young at? Feels like he'd be the perfect replacement for Crozier yet he can't even squeeze onto the extended bench ahead of Gardner.

It’s a good question. Louis Butler would seem to have jumped the queue. Also wonder how far away Duryea is?

Me too, I shuddered when I saw that. Don't tell me Bevo wants Gardner on to take on one of the Carlton talls? This could be 2019 first round defeat all over again

If Gardner gets another run, Bevo needs an intervention.
