Always Right Match Committee Thread Round 20, Vs Brisbane

[Scraggers]

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 19 match against Fremantle for our Round 20, 2019 match against Brisbane at the GABBA?

For those new to these threads, please give a brief explanation for your changes ... this would add a lot of value to the discussion.

Can we play McLean, Libba and Lippa in the same team. Brisbane will run us raggered.

I reckon Schache is done for the year.

Got to beat them at the source and use it efficiently going forward... McLean should play if he’s ready.

Yep, I agree McLean needs to play.

If it was me:

OUT: Moz, Libba
IN: Young, McLean

What I think will happen:

OUT: Moz
IN: McLean

Is McLean slow? Go check that tackle on Jetta Vs the Dees just before he strained the string. Elite explosion.

Keeping in mind the height of McStay and Hipwood, Lewis Young should come in if available.

Not sure why we'd spell Libba and based on the post-match it appears the coach agrees. Made an unprompted point of mentioning the job he did keeping Walters quiet today.

Surely he's set the task of running around giving Zorko the shits all day.

Bevo also seemed to concede with Moz gone that all but ends the Zaine as forward experiment. Pity, he was a handy catalyst.

I had a good look at Libba today - I thought he was awesome at the source and got us first use out of the stoppages on numerous occasions, usually sharking opposition hitouts by reading their hitting zones perfectly.

Re: Always Right Match Committee Thread Round 20, Vs Brisbane

I love Libba as much as the next guy, but in a game where our mids ran riot he had 19 touches, 1 tackle & just the 4 clearances for the day (Bailey Smith also had 4 for example).

Walters had more possessions, and was the 3rd ranked player for Freo on the day so he didn’t exactly put the clamps on.

He did get crunched early and his time on ground was lower than normal so have to give him leeway, but his form has been average for weeks now.
