SUB RULE GONE 2016 and BEYOND

[NMFCARSENAL98]

Great news from Jay Clark reporting that interchange rates will be cut to 90 and the sub rule will be gone from 2016 onwards.. Will allow more games to be free flowing and will allow us to blood a youngster without demoralising them with wearing a coloured vest!

Does the interchange cap change our use of the triple towers??

So glad it's gone(hated it) but I don't think it will make any difference to the way the game is played.

Hrm, happy with the sub removal but this could be a problem. Most teams get close to the 120 limit these days. Giving your players 30% less rest may not be the best idea.

So this is going to put a premium on players with elite fitness correct? That can stay on the field for as long as possible?

Sam Gibson signs contract extension to 2022.

In all seriousness though, good riddance to the sub rule.

FULL GAMES FOR DUMONT!

Wish they'd stop cutting the interchange cap, theres no evidence its doing what they want it to.

 

[DEVO]

About time.

Don't we average fewer interchanges per game than most clubs?

 

[Sheezel2Wardlaw]

In 10 years we are all going to look back and say 'Sub Rule, what the hell were they thinking?'
Im glad its going.

Gibson now becomes our most important player

But there will be 4 interchange players so the amount of players available increases and they will still get the same or more rest. Just not as often.

But before the sub rule there was unlimited interchanges...

just wait for Wells' first game back and he does a calf in the first quater. Our coach will bitch and moan about being a player down.

 

[fool]

This will be good for us, will change our 1 ruckman strat (not that i am against it given we have goldy) and will actually allow us to put game time into our "sub". Ithink this is a rule that affects us very little and the lower interchange will point out fitness levels of a lot of clubs.

Many happy a fun times to be had by all.

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Boomer sub for one game and he's the poster boy for the "SUB GONE!" article on afl.com.au haha.

Matty Campbell to do a lap of honour in the green vest prior to our round 1 game in 2016.
