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 think we all have more or less the same idea. The other advantage is if you have a young playmaker you want to blood, you could throw him in with 20 to go in a blow out game. Gets him some valuable game time, rests your starter.
"Sorry poppa, you caught me off guard and unprepared. I'm not expert on how the game of touch footy is played currently, i was merely going off memory from how the game was played when I last played 30 years ago. The way nrl is being played this…"
"TBH I would be happy for the guy if received a 2-3 yr deal; he has been good for us and had some times to get through. I would imagine it is a manager thing looking out for his client and also $$$"
"Ok Prof Daz (word salads aside re scapegoating/denial), The club are paying MON a good salary for expertise and outcomes......
where is the accountability...if not him who ? your defence here seems illogical to use your term or framing ...."
"Fair enough Poppa.
As you know the frustration comes from inaction,silence,apathy,identification and inability to sign targets or keep talented juniors.. Its multifactorial
Id be happy with them trying and being agressive in that pursuit if we…"

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

Thats an interesting one
