Always Right Match Committee - Round 23, 2018 vs Richmond

[Eastdog]

Welcome to the Always Right Match Committee Thread. This has been named after a long time WOOF member who tragically passed away in March 2018.

Always Right

If you were on the Western Bulldogs match committee what changes would you make for our round 23, 2018 match against Richmond at the MCG?

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

I'd like to see Young come in next week probably at the expense of Lynch

Would that make us a bit tall?

Richmond aren't a tall side, so it might.

I think English should come in for Roughhead, but I am guessing no change.

I don't think so, Morris and Wood can play on the mid sized players leaving Young and Naughton for any of the taller players.

I'd like to see Porter given a go. He's got right up to being the match day emergency, so a little taste, even as a half forward would be good reward for him and good for the club generally.

To play forward like Lynch has been?

Re: Always Right Match Committee - Round 23, 2018 vs Richmond

In
English Young Porter

Out
Roughead Dickson Bontempelli

Give the kids the G+Richmond experience and give Bont a rest, it wont make much difference anyway.

You'd reckon Roughy gets a farewell game.

After his performance against Carlton Roughy may not have played his last game for the "Dogs. He appeared to move with more freedom than at any stage of the season, maybe he has been carrying an injury.

Gotta keep Roughy in the side. Hopefully he plays well, fattening up the trade.

Bont has 6 months to rest, he plays unless there is risk of further damage or he just can't due to pain or restricted movement.

Only give Porter a game if he deserves it (I don't know whether his VFL form warrants selection or not). Not a fan of gifting debuts just for the experience, the jumper should be earned. BTW why didn't he play in the VFL on the weekend?

Agree. I don't think Porter has played well enough to warrant selection. Was he game day emergency, and didn't play in the VFL
