    Always Right Match Committee Round 3 V Brisbane Lions

    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 Two match against St Kilda for our Round Three match against Brisbane at Marvel on Thursday 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.

      I’m honestly not sure it matters one iota. Deck chairs. Titanic.

        Yep it's the effort not the make up.

          It’s skill level too… early on we just gifted them goals from our errors.

            West and Garcia stay.

            At least they have a crack and bring hardness otherwise absent across the field.
            The fight is here; I need ammunition, not a ride.

              Bring back DFA as well.
              But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

                West had 1 kick for the entire game… but hey, he tried

                    There was almost nobody playing in the VFL team today? McNeill, Khamis, Sweet and Cleary probably the only chances.
                    Why bring Hannan and JJ back? Would Gardiner be ready?

                      He's done a lot of running and some skill work but he's not done any contact work. Tuesday might tell the story if we are considering him for Thursday night.

                        Yeah he was shithouse but starting from the coach down, he had plenty of company. Just give him to the bombers if they are still that charitable

                          Just sad to see how far Macrae has fallen. They couldn't even hide him on the bench tonight.

                            Bailey Smith. Once you get past the hair style, there's not much to recommend for another senior match

                              West and Garcia are midfielders not small forwards. Play them there.

                              West has aggression and mongrel. We haven't had that since Clay Smith.

                              Garcia has burst speed.

                              If something is not working- fix it.
