Always Right Match Committee Thread Round 20, Vs Brisbane
Re: Always Right Match Committee Thread Round 20, Vs Brisbane
Looks like we have picked the best 22 (shame for West) good news is that it looks like the MC have finally stopped stuffing around. I’ve got a really good feeling about this one.
Go Dogs!

Looking forward - Naughton, Darcy and JUH. It will be the envy of everyone.

You must be joking? From what I have seen of him at AFL level and what I have read about his form at VFL level, he hasn't come close to demanding a spot. Like BAD says, be patient, he will get opportunities if and when he deserves them.
Well I hope Trengove and Cordy do well tomorrow as KPD's, we shall see....

I am worried that we have crossed that threshold of talls that we can comfortably handle. It feels like Carlton the first time all over again. Say it ain’t so.

It ain’t so.
We are running ‘skinnier’ with the mid rotations over the past 6 weeks so - unless we get injuries - the balance is there.

...I wonder how much debate there was on Richards vs West for that 22nd spot...
I think it would have been a close call. We typically don't bring in players like West for just one game.
Richards needs a good game this week and next

There should have been more.
I had a look at Richards stats when putting the career best together. Richards averaging 11 touches, 3 marks. 2 tackles with a total of 7.12 for his games.
I'm not intending to take a pot shot, but that's significant case of second year blues. I hope he's prepared to work his arse off post season to come back in 2020 and show he's every bit the player he showed us last year.

Flashes of brilliance. Doesn't impact the game enough. Did lay a pretty good running tackle from memory to stop them out of 50. Like to see him do more of that. Certainly very quick. Doesn't always use it.

I still don't know what his best position yet, not a criticism of him, I'm genuinely not sure. Last year you could put him anywhere, this year no so much. Is he a HFF, a winger or a HBF?
