On a roll.
Thinking about the 7 day rule it is ridiculous, for one obvious reason - rival clubs don't have access to another teams card before, during or after the game so how are they supposed to protest an illegal player? Especially as the body that administers the game doesn't check the cards either? Ridiculous, are we relying on third party train spotters then? Reminds me of the game a couple of years ago where Coastal and Halswell were potted for each playing an under 16 player without written consent having been forwarded to Mainland by the parents. Both teams were awarded a 3-0 loss and who dobbed them in? A Mainland employee who happened to watch the game. $800,000 wage bill and farce is all we get? Tui billboard coming right up.
Train spotters or those the hang about on this forum.
