Always Right Match Committee - Round 6 Vs Giants 2021

[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 5 match against Gold Coast for our Round 6, 2021 match against Giants at Manuka on Friday night?

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

Martin - Sweet (back for Mumford, but Sweet looks alright for his first game)
Daniel - Williams (assuming he’s injured)
Schache - Scott (Schache sounds like he dominated the VFL. I think he can do the same role, but taller

Scott to the sub.

I hope Williams' injury isn't serious.

Same here. Hes been a big improver.

Scott was ok today but I want to see West in the side.

West for Scott
Martin for Sweet
Daniel for Williams.

Same for me. West is hard at it and we could do with that around the ground

I really think West has a big future in the game. He's got too many of his old man's footy traits not to make it.
I know McNeill kicked a brilliant banana goal, but Scott's involvement was good. He had 9 score involvements, to McNeil's 2.
Bevo mentioned some players looked to be struggling to cover the ground at times. McNeil was the only teenager on the field tonight. I wonder whether he may have a rest coming.

Given McNeil has speed, maybe Vandermeer comes back in for McNeil?
Martin for Sweet,
Daniel for Williams.
Not sure Lewy Young holds his spot, ,maybe Buku comes in? GWS aren't particularly tall up forward right now.

I hope Lewis stays . I think he needs to have a few games to settle at this level . Looked lost a few times and his intensity at the contest was a few seconds too short . In a final , lapses like that would hurt us .

One thing I noticed in the third quarter when he came to a contest to help wood , wood did not handball to him , even though young was in the clear .

I have high hopes for Young as his clearly got the talent , just needs to put it all together to be always in the moment . In elite sports especially contact sports small the mistake that occur can be very costly and shift moment

Martin would be on the phone tonight telling MC his right for next week. MC have a good sweet problem
agree with Daniel in for williams(injured)

Jong in for scott . Bigger body mid .

With Williams going out I think we’re actually small in defence and would potentially like to play Buku as well as Lewis.

A lot depends on how we use Wood (on Greene or as a tall?), but GWS played 3 talls over 195cm yesterday... and whilst there quality might be questioned our current defensive set-up (minus Williams) has someone giving away 10+cm.

I wasn't impressed with Young at all yesterday. Khamis if he can play that role to me shows more of the intensity required at the level.

In : Martin, Daniel, Khamis
Out: Sweet, Williams, Young

Re: Always Right Match Committee - Round 6 Vs Giants 2021

It's a bit disheartening to hear that after just his 2nd game, Young is already regressing. I mean this is really his final opportunity to show his worth. He's got a 6-week stint to show us he wants his spot in the side.

With this in mind how do you match up on Finlayson, Riccardi, Himmelberg and Greene?

And I find it difficult to comprehend that we discard Young after one so-so performance, but we’re happy to carry Scott & McNeil who have done 3 parts of *!*!*!*! all this season.
