Designated tacklers for skill positions

[southwalesrabbitoh]

We've spoken about the half-back being able to come off when team defending before, I'll accept that. But stopping the match? No no no no no. I don't watch the NFL, would Aussies stop watching it too, thanks.

Don't fear me dude. I am just an ideas man.

an ideas man eh
could ya try & think of a good one then ?

T boon, it would be a farce at times, 6 running on, 6 coming off, flip no, it would look like a scene from a Benny Hill show on sum occasions.

Maybe they could just bring it in that you can only substitute the DTs in and out during the lead up to a scrum.

simple solution get rid of the interchange.....80 minute footballers will be 80-95kg not 100-120kg.....2 subs for injuries, like the old days...too easy

That would be the way to go except that they are crazy about this concussion stuff now and that will be exploited by coaches.
I don't see them ever reducing interchange let alone going back to 3 or 4 replacements.
