[UCCBball] game on the 1st

[tommo at ucc.asn.au]

A couple more things to consider:

40 minutes x 5 players = 200 player minutes / 8 = 25 minutes per person.

So if we divide it up evenly everyone should be off for ~7.5 minutes  
per half. Is everyone happy with that amount? Obviously some of us  
would like to be off less than that, but more importantly, does anyone  
need to be off more?

Secondly, I'm slightly concerned about what a rigid subbing pattern  
could do for our flow. If Kieron hits a couple of consecutive threes  
or Accy gets some nice drives out of the middle, do we really want to  
interrupt that momentum by subbing them out, just because their name  
has come up?

I'm tempted to suggest we should have a guideline of 2 x 3-4 min subs  
per player per half, but then allow a bit more flexibility with the  
ordering. If everyone makes an effort to keep track (yes, especially  
me) I'm sure we could make that work.

NOTE - for 7 players it'd be 2 x 2-3 min subs per player per half.
        for 6 players 2 x 1-2 min subs per player per half.
