Actually went through the same thing for a stretch last season. My trainees couldnt get 48 minutes, blowout or not, unless I played 5 guys. Trainees usually played 46-47 minutes. Even when I played with 5 guys in a few games my trainee fouled out or got injured. In one scrimmage played 6, trainee also got subbed in the end.

Posted it as well and there was no clear consensus on the reason. This season so far am now able to get 48 minutes. Only changes are: my trainees are older, have higher stamina and different teammates.

IMHO its a combination of stamina, players on the court, the opposition, and chosen tactics - the GE fielding the most "logical" (based on its algorithm) lineup at the moment but I have no concrete data to back it up.

What I did last season was just focus on 2 trainees. Not ideal but what can you do? <shrugs>

Well sorry if I don't look through your match history. However it's been stated before that blowouts will have garbage minutes that the coach will give to a sub. Not sure why, but it happens, maybe because all your subs got decent amounts of minutes the coach didn't see any subs to give the time to.

yer i dress 9 players and set my trainee to Starter, Reserve, Backup.

The key is to also set your bench guys to be Reserve and Backup. 9 times out of 10, this works out.

I have had instances though, where, during garbage time, the trainee gets subbed for a starter, which makes me believe that stamina does have something to do with it. Trainne stamina is atrocious - this might be a problem? Not sure.

only dressing 5 players does guarantee 48 mins though. (except fouling out obviously).

but dressing 9 seems to work out for me most times.

Most of the time it does, but during blowouts is when it tends to happen. Only BBs can know why at most, no one else knows how the GE works

It was just a pretty outrageous comment to say in 6-7 seasons that you were assuming there hadn't been junk time matches. They are extremely common. The lineups are very predictable if you set them correctly, and as coach said, setting the same player as backup and reserve is the key. Don't have players dressed up but not assigned a position.

Despite doing everything perfect it's possible to have players not get 48 minutes because of blowouts. I got 2 of them who don't get 48 minutes with some regularity. I don't have that problem with other trainees.

I didn't say there weren't junk time matches, I said there probably wouldn't be many junk time matches that coincide with you setting your line up in that way. Even with setting up the lineup "properly" I find I still get this if I blow out the game

Your last sentence. No they don't, no easy answer to your question. Other than risk a lost but win

It happens weekly and works fine mate. Hopefully you find a solution that works for you.

My trainees get subbed out more times than not, unfortunately. It's probably because most games are blowouts and they have bad stamina..
