Match Committee - Round 2 vs Richmond

[Eastdog]

If you were on the Bulldogs match committee what changes would you make for our round 2 game against Richmond at the MCG?

As always a brief explanation for your changes would add a lot of value to the discussion.

Any changes to make?

Hrovat is farrrr too good a player to have in the ressies. Perhaps Redpath.

Re: Match Committee - Round 2 vs Richmond

Goodes was ok but Stevens in for mine.

I'd give Redpath another crack at it, was only his 4th game of AFL. Although I rate Hrovat and Hunter ahead of Honey I find it hard to drop him after a solid performance.

Vickery looks to have done some sort of knee injury on his comeback and looks unlikely to play.

Re: Match Committee - Round 2 vs Richmond

I'd be reluctant to make any unforced changes. Anyone who played tonight is coming off a good preseason, with the exception of Crameri.

Hrovat will get his chances.

Was he selected in the seniors? Did he get injured today?

No and yes. Griffiths played ahead of him.

Hrovat for Honeychurch.

Keep Goodes on, but as the sub and play Grant from the 1st.

Re: Match Committee - Round 2 vs Richmond

No change for me.

Agree.
Only change -Goodes as sub for Grant to start.

Re: Match Committee - Round 2 vs Richmond

Crameri was rusty but should be better for the run. Redpath contested well but couldn't hold his marks, but I do like the idea that Stringer & Crameri get the 3rd & 4th defenders

Out: Honeychurch, Goodes
In: Hrovat, Stevens

Re: Match Committee - Round 2 vs Richmond

Goodes' work off the ball goes unnoticed. I'd be very surprised to see him dropped this week.

I thought Redpath's body work was extremely ordinary in some cases tonight. But, like you I would't be dropping him.

Unchanged for mine, baring niggles.

Re: Match Committee - Round 2 vs Richmond

Same for me no change, maybe get Grant to start. I think big Jack was trying too hard so nothing seemed to stick. He needs to be given a few weeks to settle in and then make the decision. His role is important as it spreads the defenders.
