Remember 2000 when the comp started early cause of the Olympics for the 1st 6 weeks clubs were allowed to have 2 extra Subs on the bench.
The 2 subs were permanent the player they replaced wasn't allowed back on.
I'd bring that back but with a 3 interchange players and 6 changes. Then 2 permanent reserves this would add a tactical aspect to the bench and team structure plus players like Stone and Perham whould then have a defined role within a team like ours
I'd rather have a system similar to soccer where you could have say, 7 men on the bench, but you can only use 4 of them. That way you can carry back up playmakers and outside backs without weakening your middle forward rotation
In soccer that is the case, but I'd still have limited interchange in RL, but maybe limited to one interchange per player, second time a player is interchanged he's off permanently.
Maybe have 6 subs on the bench but can only use 4 of those subs during the game. So if a spine or outside back gets injured early in the game, they can easily be replaced with someone who plays that position. If no injuries, can use the normal rotation they like
I like it but with only 4 being allowed to be used.
You could have 4 forwards, a utility and an outside back on your bench and decide during the game which 4 you use depending on situations and injuries during games.
Edit. Sorry EA just seen your exact same reply above mine.
"The chances of him being our 6 next year are very low, if he was a serious consideration he would be playing 6 now with dylan at centre. I'll be very surprised if he is our starting 6 next season unless he gets a lot more time there this season. "
"I think Joash is a good player, but from what I've seen only at fullback or on the wing. Those positions we've got pretty well covered, so I guess he's a great back up option. I'd like to see him in 1st grade, but I dont know how he fits in?"
"Yup, just to keep himself out of the spotlight whilst investigations were going on. How people admire the dude has me stumped. Think about it , you fork out your hard earned to go watch a game that this flop and his crook mates have wagers on .…"

They can't come back on the field once they come off aswell is that correct

Thats an interesting one

I dont mind that

Only Muttman and I manage to post the exact same thought at exactly the same time as each other 😂
Funny. Me and muttman have too in the past, some kind of weird mental triangle thing going on here.
