What's the go with the bench in 2026? We can carry 6 on the bench now? Can 14-22 change up until game day? Same number of interchange?

 

[Sproj]

Ummmm Kobe Hetherington...?

 

[Super Freak]

Both Hughes and Munster out for Storm.

Why couldn't we get the Storm this week?

 

[Krampus]

The bloke that could tackle and also play the ball quickly...

**** knows if that's the spelling....

Yes.

4 Interchanges
2 Reserves

Teams can make 8 interchanges.

The squad is reduced to 20 players 24 hours prior to kick off. Then the final 19 is submitted an hour before kick off. Teams can still only play 17 players unless they meet the criteria to activate a fifth player.

It's a step in the right direction but they need to figure out the kinks. It was really unfortunate when Walsh went off against the Titans and denied Semu his debut. His family came to support him and he was told he'd play, instead Verhoeven got the shot and I don't think his family was aware.

8 in a row ……

It wouldn't matter.
If we were playing them this week those two would be playing for them.

Actually I take most of your opinions with a big grain of salt, and don’t really let things on the internet offend me. I give my theory some merit to it, yours gets none.

Yes your theory about a player who just returned from ACL surgery getting minutes in Q Cup has wayyy more merit than the unexplainable, weirdly inconsistent calls that happen for us every week.

We are talking about a guy who had a bitch fit and quit mmm after they criticised his father. Then called anybody that criticised him “not a real fan”. I’ve been a fan since before he was born. The cup thing probably has nothing to do with it but it’s highly likely information gets passed onto his father that then makes it to CONEHEAD.
