Always Right Match Committee Round 22 Vs Hawthorn 2021
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 21 match against Essendon for our Round 22, 2021 match against Hawthorn (Day, Time and Location To Be Confirmed) ?
For those new to these threads, please give a brief explanation for your changes ... this would add a lot of value to the discussion.

A lot will be determined by how bad Bruce's knee injury is that he got right on the final siren.

If it's as bad as it looked, he's out until the end of next year.
If it's best case scenario, he might miss a week or 6.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

I wonder how Schache will also pull up. He most probably had a few jabs, so depends how he recovers.

Honestly, today's result and the Bruce injury on top of everything else has just about done 2021 in for me.

I feel the same. It's been a tough year and footy was the escape, which ironically turned into the nightmare that was today.
Losing to Geelong in a final would top it off.

Yep, that's the kicker. Even through all the covid BS, we've had the Dogs playing well and the hope of winning it all to get us through. That's up in smoke now.

It’s days like today that make me question why I get so involved in footy. Having something you can’t control impact you so much isn’t healthy. I try to take a step back but I bloody can’t. Those rare moments like 2016 make it worth it, but after games like today you just wonder whether we’re that cursed and it’ll be another 60yrs until we see the ultimate joy once again.

In: Hannan, Weightman
Out: Garcia, Scott
If Bruce is out then Young comes in and Schache goes forward. No option until Gardner and Keath come back.
