Actually debating VC'ing Crichton over Surgess this week but unsure yet.

Don't listen to SI, he knows how to loophole like he knows how to post a gif.
If your captain is a 2RF and you have 6 playing 2RFs on your bench it is no problem.
You can still sub your captain out for any of your 2RFs that are yet to play.
Your captain can't be a reserve, so all you need to do is select a new 4th reserve from another position.
What will stop you from loopholing is if you have 5 reserves that will score points. You only get 1 AE so if your captain isn't the lowest score not seletced in your 17 then you'll be stuffed.
Liverpool_Bulldog is in this position this week - less than 17 players, but no halves so can't select a full 17.

Gallen can't become a reserve - he can only be an NPR.
If Burgess goes big and you want to loophole
Sub Gallen for reserve 2RF.
Make sure you have 4 reserves selected, and that Gallen is the only NPR who will take the field.
Gallen will become AE

C - Gallen
So I recommend either trading Crichton out before he is injured or hooked for a huge amount of errors or at the very least, VC/Captain Surgess because he'll go HUGE.

While I have never actually performed the loophole I believe once you sub out your Captain he cannot be reserved, rather his score will be collected as an AE of the NPR you sub into your side to take the Captains place. So for example if your VC goes big sub out Gallen for an NPR (someone like Mannering or another player who won't be playing this week) ensuring you have 4 reserves in place before you save the changes.

You can't take the R off Gallen, as Gallen can't ever get an R
Sub Gallen out for Marsters.
You will now only have 3 reserves
Select a 4th reserve - Hayne is a fine choice
Gallen will be your AE
