Always Right Match Committee Round 18 V St. Kilda At Marvel On Friday Night

[Scraggers]

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 17 match against Sydney for our Round 18 match against St. Kilda at Marvel on Friday Night.

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

Can't even process this at the moment. It will take a couple of days. But I will be at Marvel on Friday night.

I like these ins but do you think McLean can back up after 5 days given what he has missed or do we give him 2 or 3 quarters on Sunday?

[SquirrelGrip]

Out Scott (inj) Hunter Bedendo McComb
In B.Smith McLean O’Brien

Bont surely must be season over soon.

I forgot they are playing Sunday.

If McComb gets another game I’ll spew up.

There were way too many passengers tonight, a message needs to be sent. There needs to be wholesale changes.

Out:- McComb, Scott (concussion), Bendendo, Hunter
In:- Smith, Buku, Cleary, Vandermeer (if he gets through the Footscray game okay)

You need another out as McComb was a medical sub.

Can I drop McComb twice?

We need a laugh and this was perfect, Scraggers!

I'm looking at next year now

I would leave Bedendo, Jamarra, West in for the rest of the year.

We should look at giving Darcy a run before the season is over. He is the real deal.

We should have a look at a Sweet/English ruck combo. At least give it a try for a few games.

I'd be playing Cleary ahead of others like O'Brien, Cordy, Crozier. He should have played last night

In B Smith Cleary O'Brien Sweet

I’d give him 2 quarters and play him this week.

Agree definitely need to give game time to those mentioned. Should also include Khamis and bring back VDM and McNeill. The more experience these guys receive the better of we will be in the long run. I would also keep Schache in till the end of the year. Give him an extended run to see if there is anything consistent and worth keeping. On the stat sheet he took our most marks last night thus at least he is getting into position.

Whilst we are all doom and gloom about our recent performances (and so we should be) we can start building a team around Marra, Naughton, Darcy and English which includes Bont, Daniel, Dale etc. Fix the deficiencies in defence and we are thereabouts in the next 12 to 24 months. Look at the age bracket of that spine. That is a once in a lifetime spine.
