There is no limit to player movement in 2024. This means that you can bring as many players as you like from your Reserves or Bench onto The Field anytime outside of the players lockout. GameDay Squad features a rolling lockout. This means that players will only be locked out as their team's game starts. For example: If a user has selected a player playing on Thursday night, they will be locked out at the commencement of the game however, the user will be able to still change players playing on Friday, Saturday and/or Sunday, and so forth until the last game of the round. The rolling lockout will be active for the GameDay Squad Aussie Rules GameDay Squad Rugby League, GameDay Squad Women's Aussie Rules, GameDay Squad Australian Basketball and GameDay Squad Global Cricket Championship codes. It is important to note that if a user swaps a player after, in OR out of their active team the player who is swapped in or out will score ZERO points for the round. This is to stop people taking advantage of any lock out exploits and to keep the game as fair as possible for all users. This rule applies even if the auto lockout is not active at the time.

It is important to note that inactive players do NOT score points; even if an inactive player has played in a round/game. Players become active when they are added to offical team playing lists, there may be some lag time to process the player from inactive to active status on the GameDay Squad platform. If you would like to check if a player is listed as active or inactive, check our "Player Pool" tab in each sport page.
