AFL Rd 3 2023 Post Game Prognostications Giants vs Carlton

[madbluboy]

Was it to stop injuries or slow the game down a bit and increase the fatigue factor to ease congestion.

It's an interesting situation.
It would be good to see some stats.
What's the effect of the cap.
Logic would indicate that if the players are more fatigued they would struggle to reach contests and congestion would be lessened.
On the other hand players pushing themselves through fatigue, rather than coming off for a rest, is more likely to result in a soft tissue injury.
