[UCCBball] game on the 1st

[tommo at ucc.asn.au]

Yep, I suspect the pattern-messed-up-by-early-subs thing is likely to  
be a bit of an issue.

I think the best solution is just for everyone to keep track of how  
long they've been off and aim for 6-to-9 mins bench time per half in  
either 1 or 2 breaks. It probably won't end up exactly even, but it  
should be fairly close.

If there's anyone who should be on towards the end of a close game,  
they should just make sure they have their bench time earlier in the  
second half.

Tom.
