Teams won't have to worry about breaking the interchange limits in these sims. Essendon had 3 interchanges, and Geelong had 9.

It's the great unanswered question, does Loonerty have a plan B?

Hurts to lose the blockbusters, it would have been great to win the virtual country game. But I guess the importance is to focus on the meaning for the game, regardless of the result
