AFL Rd 14 2022 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs Richmond

[kruddler]

During a broadcast game, BT asked a recently retired player who was a co-commentator or boundary rider why players weren’t ordered to wear boots with long stops and he was flummoxed when he was told they don’t exist. The recently retired player claimed they all wear moulded stops and that’s it. Can’t comment from my own experience. Like most, I only own 1 pair and they’re moulded. But I’m not a professional player.

I came across the same thing a couple months ago when i was buying my little one his first pair of boots.

I saw them selling some replacement stops (which i explained to the missus what they were for) and then proceeded to try and find some boots that had them. Nothing.

There is a million different types and styles, but couldn't find long stops in the whole store.
