Always Right Match Committee Round 12 vs Collingwood
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 Eleven match against Sydney for our Round Twelve match against Collingwood 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 thought Harmes fought through his hard tag well.
I did that an hour ago.
The injuries and possibly Freijah.
Lobb, Sanders into the 22, JOD and maybe Poulter if his form is ok. Freijah looks a talent, but I’d strongly him out or to the sub.

Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 12 vs Collingwood
Oooof, a lot of outs needed today. The forced outs as a starter, there are a number of players that could do with a rest but I wouldn't want to do too many. I would drop Bramble for Cleary though and I will continue to harp on this.
In:
Lobb, Sanders, Poulter
Out:
Naughton, Richards, Scott

No Cody, Naughton, Libba, Richards and Baz, A decent amount of class missing. It?s going to be tough.
I can take the loss tonight, but the injuries are gut wrenching.

The pies have not had a great run with injuries either.
The fight is here; I need ammunition, not a ride.

If Naughty somehow avoids an ACL it will be our biggest win in a few years. Fingers crossed!!!

Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 12 vs Collingwood
I think the Vanders 50 is line ball.
He is a fraction late.
I get why its paid. I think we got one last week which was similar and if anything harsher on GWS. If I am being critical - dumb football by VDM, just needed to slow and impede the play on.

I think that is harsh on VDM. We are talking split seconds. The one last week against GWS was a mistake too. This one was also a mistake. Even the one against Bont was too harsh in my opinion. The contact was minimal and Amarty just dropped the ball like it was a hot potato. We are encouraging players to play for 50m penalties. Goals are hard to find in AFL football. We should not be gifting them from those type of incidents. It was innocous for the Bont call and most people didn't think it was there for VDM. Two goals from nothing.

It's going to be hard to know who to bring in until Footscray play on Saturday but there will be a few players keen to impress.

It was a totally wrong decision by the umpire what ever way you look at it. Not even line ball. Just shows how bad umpiring is at the moment. It stopped momentum.Get rid of 4 umpires.
