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.
"We lost our guy from last year and replaced him with the Knights guy ?
I tend to agree , if Lomax first requested a release mid last year and that was the road we were going to go down , I like you have no problem with it . But to wait until…"
"Yes but why do we need them now.
As soon as the decision to release Lomax was agreed to that had to be the #1 decision back then.
I mean we left the door open for DB to go also and we still don't have an answer at 6 this is how this club moves at…"
"Cleary is superior to every half in the comp just saying.
What is funny is how all our fans were on there knees praising the coach for style of play and yet now we are back to the bash athon and aren't 1 built to play that way 2 are getting…"
"You know why the ruck was slow because of our lack of physicality in the middle of the park.If we ran harder like they were there getting the accendency and the officials can see that.This is the issue when your built for finesse and you play sides…"

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

Thats an interesting one
