Re: Always Right Match Committee - Round 6 Vs Giants 2021
VDM's mongrel will be useful this week.
The fight is here; I need ammunition, not a ride.

Amen to this..
Out: Scott, McNeal, Williams
In: Buku, Daniel, Cavarra
I'd give Sweet another week to go up against Mummy.

My fear is he will hurt one of our players so on balance yeah - I agree would be good if he did not play.
I envy those going to Canberra to see game live. Due to personal circumstances decided not to go.
Mummy would be a good out you just know he's going to try to break bones.
I hate Toby Greene but man can he play football. One of my faves to watch.
But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

I know McNeill kicked a brilliant banana goal, but Scott's involvement was good. He had 9 score involvements, to McNeil's 2.
Bevo mentioned some players looked to be struggling to cover the ground at times. McNeil was the only teenager on the field tonight. I wonder whether he may have a rest coming.
Given McNeil has speed, maybe Vandermeer comes back in for McNeil?
Martin for Sweet,
Daniel for Williams.
Not sure Lewy Young holds his spot, ,maybe Buku comes in? GWS aren't particularly tall up forward right now.
McNeill sacrifices his game for the forwardine to function.
I'd say West is pushing for Scott's spot and VDM wight now is ahead of West.
Daniel for Williams and Martin for Sweet are no-brainers, if there is a third change it might be VDM for Lippi as we seem set on trying to get more legspeed on the paddock

At what point do we look at Wallis coming back in? As a small forward with mongrel, I would be pushing for him to replace McNeill

I was a little disappointed with West on Saturday. He kept going missing in periods of the game and also got caught holding the ball a few times.

VDM would come in ahead of Wallis IMO.
Cav was the medical sub ahead of him too.

Re: Always Right Match Committee - Round 6 Vs Giants 2021
An interesting perspective from the Mongrel Punt on Scott and McNeil:
Being at the game live, I noticed the sort of pressure and coverage that Lachie (Ally) McNeil and Anthony Scott apply to the opposition ball carriers. Upon looking at the stats sheet the numbers read 11 and nine pressure acts from McNeil and Scott respectively – which are good numbers from players that aren’t as heralded as the top-liners. I have often read by the Bulldogs faithful that both should be dropped, but I think they both bring hunger for the ball – can’t drop them on that.

First Wallis would have to produce a good game.

For McNeil he is absolutely spot on and averaging 12.2 pressure acts a game, Scott though is at 7.6 so a fair way behind. Mitch Wallis had 12 and 8 in his 2 games. Naughton being the freak that he is gets 11.

He played alot of midfield time in the VFL, without being outstanding

I disagree. His intensity and physicalness around the ball plus his ability to read the play makes him more viable against a hard-nut team such as GWS. Maybe a return to the senior team is all he needs to get his season back on track.

Re: Always Right Match Committee - Round 6 Vs Giants 2021
For me McNeil's been great, but I wonder whether he is feeling it a little and could do with a freshen up? Looked like he was running under the ground at stages.
Out: McNeil, Williams, Sweet
In: Daniel, Vanders (if fit), Martin

Re: Always Right Match Committee - Round 6 Vs Giants 2021
Out: Williams; Sweet; Scott
In: Daniel; Martin; Vandemeer
Hard to change 3 after a 10 goal win. But Williams injury, and Martin has had his freshen up.
Scott seems to have played mostly forward the last 3 weeks, and I think Vanders and McNeil are the preferred.
Also feels like Buku might not be far off getting a crack. I reckon if someone like Crozier pulls up sore some time soon, Buku might get his first crack.
