Often you will see player X waiting to come one for a period of time 2-3-4 minutes in the dying stages all because the ball is on the wrong side of the ground.

With today's footy being so structured and team defense is it too big of a risk for one player to drop off and get off the ground so the teams best player can get on?

Last night I thought Bont was waiting far too long to come back on in the last quarter.
It doesn't have to be a one-for-one change. Just get the closest bloke off, get him on and work it out from there. Seriously - are interchanges really that hard? The ball was pinging everywhere last night - both sides of the ground...I think he was off for 10 minutes.
