NRL 2021: Australian Rugby League Commission chairman Peter V’landys denies new rules causing injuries as 18th man change to be examined – Sydney Morning Herald
The Australian Rugby League Commission will meet on Tuesday to discuss teams being allowed an extra reserve on their benches to cover for concussions.
The Sharks lost three players during the match to concussion and the Raiders lost two, with both John Morris and Ricky Stuart lavishing praise on their sides as both tired badly in the final quarter.
The AFL introduced a medical substitute on the eve of their season commencement, and NRL executives insisted they could tinker with their interchange policy and have it amended almost overnight.
