Camron - as JR says below, either a full or 30 can be used. However, the rule also states that the situation must be able to be corrected within the allotted time. In my opinion, if a 30 is given and the player cannot continue at that time (still bleeding, etc) then either you change it to a full (not my first choice) or the player stays out and you resume play (my first choice). I think the choice of the player staying out makes sense since if he isn't able to come in after 60 seconds (in the case of a full being granted), you wouldn't extend the time.

I haven't checked the NF site yet, but maybe we should.

BTW - why don't you have your books yet? I got mine in early Oct.

OK - I checked the site and it said a team may be granted successive timeouts (as long as they have any remaining) until the player is ready to play.
