  • Yeah, it's rediculous why they haven't done it yet already with all the injuries that occur. It would improve the product on tv. I think you only need to go to a 5 man bench though, with an 18th man still. 

    • It's getting to a stage where  even the lesser concussions  are treated  more seriously  it  may even help them make the decision to keep the players off easier .

  • In 2000 season because it started early because of the Olympics they had a 6 man bench.

    4 interchange 2 reserves if the reserve came on the person he replaced was off.

    Id like a variation of that 3 man 6 interchange bench. 

    2 reserves good coaches could be real tactical with the reserves plus they cover injuries aswell

    • Sounds interesting offside could work well

Yes Burton is worth more....to get him I would go between 800/900, Campbell similar price and Ponga 1.1m.
Cannot see us getting Campbell or Ponga, Burton remains a slight hope,…"

I have said in recent times that if either of the big 2 coaches became available i.e. Bellamey and Bennett, Bellamey would be the only one I would consider over our incumbent Ryles..... stress consider!
