Match Committee - Round 14 vs Carlton

[Eastdog]

If you were on the Bulldogs match committee what changes would you make for our round 14 match against Carlton at Etihad?

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

There will be some tired bodies from tonight and some might be given a break. I still think Dale needs a breather although did some nice things at times. Do we keep going with Minson/Roughy?

Agree that Dale needs to go back and Minson too.. Just not offering much to our set-up.

Do we really have other options? I'm not that keen on bringing Campbell in unless he has better form. If Cordy backs up last weeks effort again he might come into the mix.

I'd be looking at bringing in Crameri, Jong and Honeychurch.

Who would you look at dropping GVG

Re: Match Committee - Round 14 vs Carlton

Dale doesn't do enough to stay in the team, seems to always do one or two great things during the course of the game but hasn't yet put together anything close to four quarters of footy.

Not that it's likely he's dropped from here, but I thought Morris was underdone and it cost us at times tonight. Additionally, the balance isn't right with Morris, Hamling, Roberts plus two ruckmen. It makes us look slow when we move forward and would much prefer to play another midfielder.

Webb and Dale spring to mind. I'd need to find someone else

Re: Match Committee - Round 14 vs Carlton

Ins:

Jong.
Honey.

Out:

M Boyd (rested)
Anybody pulling up sore.

I would've said drop T Boyd for some confidence, but against Carlton he's better off in the side.

I thought Morris was great. Compressed a lot of aerial contests, got the critical fist or tap in a number of times. Validated the decision to bring him back IMO

Re: Match Committee - Round 14 vs Carlton

Really need another midfielder Jong in please.

Hopefully Crameri responds well happy to give both Webb and Dale a rest.

Re: Match Committee - Round 14 vs Carlton

I really see why Beveridge is playing all the kids, love it but winter is here and it's a long season. Love, LOVE getting games into the likes of Dale, McLean and Webb but we can rotate them a bit more IMO.

Hard to tell the ins before the VFL game but I would be looking to give both Webb and Dale a rest. Crameri, Honey and Jong in line to replace them.

Will doesn't offer us much either short or long term. If we had any confidence in our young rucks then he would be out for sure but Ayce was nowhere near it and I really don't think Campbell is up to it. Roughy is more of a 2nd ruck type atm and it's a big risk to play someone alongside him who cannot be competitive in the ruck (which Will offers). If Ayce has another strong game, I would go with Roughy, Ayce and co. sharing the load...ruck stocks are very ordinary!
