Polo Rules

I agree the original player could be allowed back on the team without much of a problem (depending on the exact situation), but you can achieve this by finishing your current game 2 on 3.

Yeah, but as a ref, I wasn't happy to see Spring Break play on with 2 when you were bleeding from the face, as it was manifestly unfair, and I wasn't happy to let you play on - you can't allow a player to continue to play when they are bleeding, sorry, that's not soft, that's just common sense.
