Always Right Match Committee Round 5 vs Essendon
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 Four match against Geelong for our Round Five match against Essendon 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.

I'm indifferent on VDM and who takes the pressure forward role but my lord Daniel looks slow as hell nowdays. Did everyone catch on that you can pressure him and not just let him dance in place for a while until he finds a kick he likes? Or has he actually lost a yard or some agility?
Garcia with his pace would be a better fit for...whatever role it is we have him doing.

Nothing to lose playing Garcia and Clarke/Artie to replace Daniel and Macrae

I'm so over VDM and his role as a pressure forward. His skill level when he eventually gets the ball is ordinary to say the least. If you want a pressure forward who can tackle get someone from Melbourne Storm.

But if Laith isn't playing who will we have doing zoomies while his opponents stand still and move the ball around him?

Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 5 vs Essendon
I mentioned it in the game day thread swap Dale and VDM.
Garcia in for Daniel
Macrae for Treloar.
Don't piss off old people
The older we get the less "LIFE IN PRISON" is a deterrent...

Is Treloar injured? I thought he played well tonight.

Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 5 vs Essendon
No he's not injured just not a fan on his pressure acts which I think are not much.
Although he's stats look good I would prefer a harder edge.

Wow. That is harsh on Ads. He had 10 coaches votes last week. This week he gets 37 touches and kicks the goal to get us back in the game. Five tackles too.

Maybe it is but he frustrates me more than the other midfielders But that's just me.

In:

Out:
Sanders - I?d probably give him a rest as a young player. No VFL footy - I don?t want him to burn out as the year progresses
Daniel
We need to find a way to get JOD in while playing Buku.
