    Always Right Match Committee Round 23 Vs Port Adelaide 2021

    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 22 match against Hawthorn for our Round 23, 2021 match against Port Adelaide (Day, Time and Location To Be Confirmed) ?

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

      Whatever. Drop the whole team who cares.

        Deck chairs titanic. 3 or maybe even 3 losses are coming to us.

              Surely we wouldn't drop Hannan or Cordy ?

                Play the vfl side if it means we get to watch players who actually give a damn.

                  I saw Bont looking absolutely stuffed at the 10min mark of the first quarter. I’ve never seen us look so slow, tired and weak in the contest. Are we buggered after a long season? Have we over done it? Or have we overloaded our training in the lead up to finals and severely overestimated our ability to finish top 2 or even 4?

                    I'm hoping we have done the training overload leading into the finals. Are we happy to finish 4th and take on Melbourne or Geelong first week of the finals and don't have to travel to Adelaide?

                          Clearly the ruck is an issue.

                          How much worse could it be with Sweet or Young first ruck and English forward?

                          Gives Naughton support and some sort of semblance to our forward line.
                          More of an In Bruges guy?

                            The horse has bolted. We needed to back Sweet in months ago if we thought English wouldn’t cut it on his own in finals to allow him to continue to develop. Now, with English clearly not capable, Martin cooked and Sweet twiddling his thumbs we reap what we sow.
                            Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

                              I need to give this some more thought but Schache, Gardner, one of Sweet and Martin and maybe and Lipinski would be in the mix to come in
