well if coaches keep pushing the envelope with more gut running and physical congestion the next big thing you will see is player rotation a'la cricket or baseball with most players being rested for a number of games each season I don't think you or the public will like to see that (apart from the fact that it will smack of tanking list management)

has any etihad home team won a flag yet? no, its cursed

you are the only one talking about one on one football it doesn't have to go back there it is a question of setting the correct balance without ruining the very essence of football it is not a black or white issue it can still be a running game with zoning. it is just that it has gone too far in one direction (IMHO)

dear oh dear. think about it - $700,000 G's

straight thru to the keeper

Sh*t, if only it WAS $700,000 G's our troubles would be over

agree coaches won't agree to it voluntarily and will [censored] and whine but i have faith that if it is forced on them that they will adjust accordingly. they are not stupid

i know the current status wyl and how it came about i just don't like the impact on the game as a spectacle basically i think it adversely alters the balance between athleticism and football ability, and also defence vs offense and congestion vs space i'm not wanting to remove rotations but just restore a bit of balance reducing the rotations doesn't mean a return to the man on man football

smith over anyone makes no sense

Q. how far does a modern footballer run in a game A. as far as he can - within the limitation of his stamina and the number of interchange players and rotations Where is it written that a player has to run a certain distance? If i want to watch an endurance competition I'll watch long distance athletics events I want to watch good football but each to their own

rubbish wyl afl is he only football competition (or other sport for all i know) that allows unlimited interchange who says x interchange players with unlimited rotations is the correct number why not have 5 or 6 or whatever interchange players in the future just to "evolve" the game? all it does is increase the congestion reduce the impact of skilled footballers and increase negative or defensive play to the detriment of exciting offensive football its already looking more like rugby for congestion and soccer for defensive play i'd have 2 interchange players with a limit on rotations (say 10/Q) and 2 one-time substitute players the game would cope quite nicely

maybe not bartel, but certainly johno or from the past, brereton

i'm with hungry.......sick of the conga line............class over athleticism every time
