Piss the interchanges off. 4 Reserves, once on they stay on. Old School attrition brought back into the game and let the little skilled ball runners entertain when the boys get tired.
Get rid of the 6 agains, the referee influences the game on the run too much with no scrutiny at the time. Its also hard to work out why a lot are given.
Give clubs a massive dispensation on the salary cap for home made juniors, recognising the $$ and time they have put into the player developing him.
If you eliminate interchange their bodies will breakdown, different speed and intensity these days, the welfare of the athletes is important. The game is a good balance of exciting attack and inspiring defence.
The punishment for doing this is the 20m restart. 7 tackles on top is overkill and swings it back the other way far too heavily. It's lame seeing an almost-try turn into pressure on the opposite end one set layer.
It depends where it's kicked from. The 7 tackle set was brought in because teams that struggled to make ground would kick it dead so they don't start their defensive set under pressure
"I'd like to hear Chiefy's answer to Super's reality check. The irony of Chiefy's position is the myopic take on Stefano, if generalized, would see the club locking in very early on every green sprout and probably having zero recruitment room to move "
"Exactly LB. People think you can force players to re-sign on favourable terms, as though they don't know they can get the best deal by having multiple clubs competing for them. That's why they wait until November. If you want them to sign early you…"

What do you do with injuries the game is fast enough now to many injuries and hias in the game why is like a six man bench
The big men slow down due to fatigue. Part of the speeding up of the game can be attributed to the interchange now available.
The game thrived for 80 odd years prior to the interchange coming in. Its nothing new.

I like the way you think BE.
I agree on the 6 again. It's arbitrary bullshit and half the time no one even knows what it's for.
8 interchanges are fine. One of the best players last year was Reece Walsh. The "little man" hasn't disappeared.
No more 7-tackle set for kicking it dead.

Yes agree with this

Yeah. Make it if you are in the opposition half you can kick it dead.
