Message: [QUOTE="Coxy, post: 2513928, member: 1764"] Having players who CAN play 80 minutes in the middle is great. But it's a long season. You don't want to do that every game if you don't have to. When you've got QUALITY players who can come off the bench, like Kennedy and Tasi, why not make the most of them, and have the added benefit of keeping your 80-minute capable players a bit fresher throughout the season? Sure, at a pinch they can play 80 minutes if a particular game calls for it (injuries, or the situation of the game doesn't suit the bench player). And that's where it's a godsend. But I think it's foolish to play them 80 minutes week in week out. That applies equally to Parker given next year he'll be what, 32? Sure he's not slowing down yet, but at that age it's probably worth starting to protect him a little bit. [/QUOTE]
