I used to play thirds but I had to stop because of the time commitment that they wanted. I have two young kids and they wanted me to practice on tuesday/thursday evening, play friday night and be available to come off the bench for the seconds on Saturday. If I missed practice there was a good chance I wouldn't get in the game on the Friday or I would only get 10 minutes at the end. Eff that.
When I started playing thirds it was rolling subs and a lot of fun. Not much fun any more.
