What happens if a team runs out of fit players?

[olisik 4,060]

I was looking at our list and you could count on one hand the amount of players we have left available playing at Casey.

What would happen if we get a few more injuries and cant field a team of fit players?

[Deestroy All 14,266]

I can not give a f for the rest of the year?

Good question, I have no idea. Super 12's football?

Interesting question. I don't think there is any provision to add players to the list, so you would have to play short. It would be very embarrassing for the AFL.

simple, we would have a team of unfit players

but isn't that what we already have? i don't understand why the question

For a side playing MFC it should not be a problem.

Most teams could hold us in an arm wrestle with about 12 players on the ground. With 13 players they could run one man spare all day.

I still reckon Leigh Brown would be a walk up start at the moment.

Didn't it almost happen to Essendon a few years ago? By the last game they were down to their last fit rookie. Maybe it was somebody else, but whoever it was they went close.

Freo went close a few years back. I think they started to sound out the AFL on a solution but managed to make it to seasons end.

Might be who I'm thinking of.

I did seriously raise this question a week or so ago.

I had thought that the AFL would have a contingency plan but on reflection they would probably just make up rules as they went along, as per usual, and depending upon which teams were involved.

So would Rawlings.

[Norm Smith's Curse 2,602]

yeah Freo got close to this. Maybe the opponents give us a player for the day. Would be interesting to see

[Bring-Back-Powell 14,828]

The AFL would permit a Casey player I would imagine...

I guess it would come down to insurance issues.

[BarnDee 287]

well , it would mean we are TANKING , bahhhhhhh

[Good Times Grimes 2,396]

So would Rawlings.

So would Neil Craig.

[McQueen 17,864]

Might be who I'm thinking of.

It was only last year when they gave Mark Harvey the arse. Truth be told it was the injury toll that affected that team as opposed to Harvey's coaching ability.

[Clark_Kent 315]

Because of our injury list I think we are a big chance to lose tomorrow. But I hope we win no more

tanking for draft picks although it won't be because of tanking tomorrow just crapness

This scenario is unlikely but if it happens it could spark a thread of its own - and a spin-off.

Well what would happen if toms knee disintegrated permanently.

That would be the GWS salary cap in chaos for the next 5 years.

I didn't know a bottomless pit could experience chaos.

[Moonshadow 17,676]

Ronald Dale might make a comeback.

If only we could do a father/son but with a clone.
