    Always Right Match Committee Round 14 v North Melbourne

    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 Thirteen match against Port Adelaide for our Round Fourteen match against North Melbourne at Marvel on Sunday.

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

    I like your changes.
    Not necessarily a big fan of Sweet but surely his ruck work will be if more benefit than having a non contributor like JOD.

    JOD contributed directly to two port goals by trying pin point passes towards centre instead of safer kick along boundary line.

    I agree with you and west bulldog regarding changes. Can’t see Sweet being selected though. And I think we need leg speed so can see Bevo selecting someone like Hannan (much to consternation of many woofers, me included).

    I don't know who comes in.

    But on what I saw tonight. Jones, Bruce and JOD can't get a game. Horrendous all three of them.

    Bevo "He put some pressure on Arty, but is unusual to go through a whole game and not actually have a statistic with the Sherrin. He has had some influential games too. We will monitor that.".

    My read. You are not playing next week Arthur.

    Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 14 v North Melbourne

    Out: Arty, Bruce, JOD

    In: Cleary, and see how VFL goes on the weekend.

    We don't need anymore talls, we have been too big the last few weeks.

    This is a game where we should be playing the younger players : Buku, Cleary, Darcy, West, Sweet etc...
    Rest Arty and JOD

    Is Darcy still injured with his jaw?
    More of an In Bruges guy?

    Have to play Poulter. Why did we recruit him if we weren’t gonna play him. It’s not like he is a raw 19yo rookie.

    Yes, add in Poulter, we need to test the younger players and see where they are
    We can rest Bonts / Libba , let Macrae, Adz , daniel and Baily Smith play in the middle
    Give weightman and west sometime in the middle

    Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 14 v North Melbourne

    For the first ten rounds I was very big on keeping our structure of three talls down back and three tall up forward.
    Clearly that structure currently isn’t working as we seem to be short of run through the midfield.

    IN: Cleary, Baker
    OUT: Lobb, JOD,

    Clearly A.Jones needs a rest, but gee whiz the only option is McNeil and not sure I’d go down that path.

    Bruce forward to relieve in the ruck.
    More of an In Bruges guy?
