would somebody mind explaining the orange top to me

and what happens if you rush a behind?

is kicking backwards i the backline against the rules in the NAB?

cheers

The orange tops are Substitutes, the player who they replace can not return to the game

I believe a deliberate rushed behind results in a free kick (not sure where from)

Kicking backward in backline is play on

Also a kick must travel 20m for the NAB cup also

That should be confirmation in itself :hihi

I'm trying to think back- when Luke had OP in last year's preseason did the club admit it or did they call it something else?

I can't remember, although Luke was a long way out of our best 22 last pre-season so it wouldn't have mattered if they said it publicly.

All AFL clubs seem to be hyper sensitive about releasing details about OP, perhaps it's a injury that is particularly easy to exploit in matchups, I don't know.

What I do know is that it's a bad injury for midfielders to have so I hope it's not true

So they are finally trialling this? Good to see. Been calling for it for years.
What are the numbers? How many are conventional interchange and how many are substitutes?
 
Does anyone know who was subbed out for Collins last night? Bling made way for The Modernist, but I wasn't sure who went off for Collins.

Cheers.
