Great point. One of the main reasons Clapham 2 entered the tour this
year was to inconvenience every other team in the B tour and piss you
off in the process.

I think GB players in Finland felt the effects of a long season, mentally more than
physically, where there was no respite from Winter Leagues, GB Practices, Club
Practices and Tour Events for 8 or 9 months.
Shortening the open season to 3 months would certainly be helpful in giving players a

I think it's fine to start stalling someone when they catch the disc, as
