The sub had no bearing on what happened.
But the player who was the sub, should never be the sub.
He was needed as a 2nd forward / ruck.
The TEAM needed a 2nd forward / ruck.
Now either TDK was ready to play or he wasn't.
If he is ready, he plays in the 22.
if he isn't ready, he is not in the 23.
He does not play as the 23rd player.
If you wanted to swap TDK and Kemp, that i can accept a bit better, still not ideal, but its better.
If you wanted to swap TDK and Kennedy, that is a bit better again, still not ideal, but offers plenty of versatility.
TDK as sub (or Pittonet) or any other ruck doesn't work. Especially when you haven't got 2 key forwards on the ground.
