    Always Right Match Committee Round Three v Sydney at Marvel

    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 Two match against Carlton for our Round Three match against Sydney at Marvel on Thursday.

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

    Re: Always Right Match Committee Round Three v Sydney at Marvel

    Anyone ready to make the call?

    Crozier will be out (I hope he is OK)
    Vanders struggled again
    JUH is a long way off

    Bailey Smith should be OK

    JUH stays in imo. If he isn't doing all that's required of him then tell him he has 3 games to get that up to standard. Thought he showed some good signs tonight. I think key forwards you kind of just have to suck it up and invest the games into them. Rampe is gonna be a huge challenge for him but considering he got slaughtered by him last year this is a good opportunity for him to at least get some little wins going.
    I should leave it alone but you're not right

    JUH stays for mine. We need another player who can take a mark above his head.

    Vanders has to go.
    I could list 5-6 more but why bother when Bevo won’t drop them.

    Wouldn’t be surprised if it was smith in for Vanders and Williams for crozier, then someone in for sub.

    If it was me, Cordy, Gardner, Hunter, Roarke, vanders, crozier would be out.
    Sweet, O’Brien, Wallis, Jones, Williams, smith would be in.
    I will never see #16 the same!!

    Shit. JUH was not our problem.

    Out: Cordy, Crozier, Vandermeer
    In: Smith, Jones, Sweet

    That’s in the 23 given Truck played.

    Marra plays. Marra has to play.

    Garcia for Vandermeer
    An inanimate carbon rod for Cordy
    I don't even know who for Crozier

    I'm sure more will come to me.

    Tim O'Brien and Bailey Smith should be available shouldn't they?
    McNeil should be a chance

    Is Jones ready? He looks lively and all but at the moment he is not what we need. Smith will be a big in. We missed him tonight. Who else can play in the middle and get first hands on the ball. Do we go for Wallis? Bont will clearly be spending more time forward so we need another mid that at least fight, negate and make a scrap to get to the likes of Treloar and Smith.

    I think atm we are struggling with guys who don't have an impact when they're not involved. Jones I think could be a bit like that. Which isn't to say don't play him, he seems to have the attributes to really help our side, I'd just be wary of putting too many raw low output guys in the side who are still figuring out how to contribute in their role for a game.

    Re: Always Right Match Committee Round Three v Sydney at Marvel

    Not a big fan of playing Sweet just cause he's a ruck, but am coming round to the idea of having a second one in the lineup at all times. I look at the way Brisbane developed McInerney, or St.Kilda Marshall as the best two examples (both rookies btw), where they played them even not as the main ruck but as the resting ruck (Xerri seems to be the next example of this).

    I'm certainly open to the idea of giving Sweet an opportunity to acclimatise to AFL level, and think it would've been great to have someone to assist in the ruck as English was both tired and not up to it tonight. I guess I also see it like how soccer uses substitute appearances to develop young players, giving them 10-25 minutes here and there, but in this case thats what Sweet would do in the ruck. I guess the other option is let them kill it at the lower level like Sean Darcy and Reilly O'Brien did, but I'm not sure Sweet is that type.

    I would have Wallis in front of Vanda. We need another marking forward. Wallis can provide that and he is tough. Our biggest issue is key defence and I don't know what the solution is there. Gardner is not up to it. Keath looks well below his form of last year.
