What was the last interchange for 3rd grade? 3 ressies?

Last season is was that you could make 2 substitutions in the first half, 4 at half time, and 2 in the second half. Where that got that idea from, I have no idea.

He never said it was a development grade, just that coaches may look to develop chemistry by keeping the same players on the pitch.

if this is the case then clubs can choose not to use the interchange regime.

I think that substitute thing that was in place last year is quite enough. Doesn't need another change.

Anyway at least 3rd grade can be full of club stalwarts again. 23's is out isn't it?

yeah was done away with last year. A few clubs still used 3rd grade as mostly 23's with a couple of older blokes though.

Was a bit warm yesterday! Nothing in comparison to Motown last weekend (36+)

No point watering the top field. We put a total of 16 hours on it the day before + on game day two weeks ago, by first grade it was back to its normal cement feel anyway

Wallsend ZL3 are looking for more players. Have sent you a pm

[Greenz]

Any word on who's looking good this year. Mayfield and new lambton will be up there again

[Shere Khan]

Suns will be contenders as long as they keep their cool.
Bero will be tough to.
Uni have had a few good trials.
Could be a good Zpl year with most teams competitive on their day.

[Skirt Boy]

Just giving my grade some love.

[Lofty]

Interesting. There has been plenty of talk about Suns so far.
Ill think Mayfield will do it this year. They were great last season and i think will be better again.

Based purely on results ive heard and last seasons performances....

Mayfield
Suns
New Lambton
Bero
Barnsley
Dudley
Uni

By that reasoning id love to take odds on us making the four.
