AFL Rd 6 2023 Post Game Prognostications Carlton vs St Kilda

[PaulP]

The thing about that is that there is a lot of months between the start of a season and the end.
They may have had an intense pre-season that has left them very fit for the early rounds but through the season there will need to be peaks and troughs of training intensity.
How they manage and maintain those training loads may tell a story.
A pre season is very important.
It's the time for hard work, putting it in the bank so to speak, but there is also an element that must be maintained and managed so training loads in July-August will be very different to early in the year.

Yep, no doubt.
