Its unfortunate that youre unable to comprehend basic arithmetic and cannot comprehend the consequences of fitting 25 players into 18 slices of pie whilst trying to win a game and keeping your best 10 players on the field at all time because else youll lose

I can guarantee that your 15 non essential players that u give 8 minutes game time a quarter to are NOT enjoying it and would rather not play than spend 56 minutes a game sitting on the bench

But they only come back next week cos theyve paid their $$ fees which they wont get back and hope that you might give them more than a quarter and a half on the field but you know deep down you WONT and CANT because you cannot fit 25 players into an 18 piece pie and therefore your 15 fringe players can either like it or lump it. And the next naive goon bag can instead take his spot

You're having difficulty understanding difference between nothing and something.

As you can see from my image, only four players had less than 50% game time.

Or you can just use the basic version that costs $50 and keeps track off notations and time on the field, helps you control who has been on for so long and that, very helpful.

As one of the teams that is a true C and D grade in this comp we have played in the C grade comps for years where there has been 25 players picked each week. On the weekend just gone we had players still miss out on games. Our C grade has been pretty good at managing the 25 on the bench and rotations work really well. We didnt request to come into Div 7 but we really do need to have the 25 on each grade, had it been 21 in both grades would have had 8 extra players miss out on Saturday. Those 8 had the pleasure of joining us in two losses :( .

Definitely didn't request to come into div 7. We have issues with triple headers at our club so we were told it was either that or we play div 7. I am sure that there was more back and forth than just that but we didn't request to play Div 7/7R. We were informed 2 weeks ago only. We were asked to play in this comp months back and requested to stay in the C grade comps and up until 2-3 weeks ago we were in C2 and C6. Us changing is the reason C2 now have a bye. We were not really preparing to play against other clubs A grade sides, lucky that there was some really good numbers training in pre-season for the C and D grade otherwise we would be further back IMO.

You do realise it was 30 bloody degrees Saturday don't you? Doubt blokes would've been too concerned with spending time on the bench - plus they won, so who cares. :lol:

You make a lot of assumptions in your posts. You're welcome to come and spend some time within the inner sanctum of those 25 blokes this Saturday and ask them if they'd rather be sitting in their trackies on the sidelines.

Nevermind the fact that half the blokes only had a half of footy in the tank to begin with!

Personally I've always loved the soccer system where your A Grade play with 11 and then 1 reserve GK who plays in the B Grade, 2 fresh subs for the A Grade and 2 subs who played in the B Grade (usually get subbed off in the last 20 mins of the B Grade)

Your two blokes from the B Grade are allowed to be named after the B grade game and before the A Grade game start. It's a great way to reward someone who has a had a cracker in the b grade especially if a young bloke or a guy on the fringe.

I'm willing to accept soccer is a bit different where a sub may only get 10 minutes of playing time.

The benefits imo is less blokes whining about game time, more blokes keeping up their 'match fitness' for when they have to step into key roles, it's a great opportunity to blood younger players.

I'm not saying it would exactly work in football but my experience in Soccer (being a fringe A grade/B grade player myself) was nothing but positive and was a great way for me to stay at my club rather than try and chase a start at another club as genuinely still felt part of the A Grade on a weekly basis

You're quite the team player marbles, your teammates over the years have been very lucky to have someone who only cares about themself on the footy field.

I would gladly sit on the bench all day if it meant my team came home with the win. Hell, I've played games where I've had 1 handball, maybe even no stats at all, but was asked to play a role to help my team win.

The advantage of it is it will give blokes a game who if they missed out early in the season may have disappeared and gone and played their Play Station

These are the blokes that will be getting extra game time as injuries happen and the weather gets colder and it starts to rain

It will be interesting to see how many are putting out 25 in each grade come June/July ;)

Because from the C Grade experience it starts to drop off very quickly :lol:
