Triple premiership player Clark Keating played 20, 12 and 12 games in premiership years. The last of which he didn't play his 1st game until R15. THe next year when they were runner ups he only played 11 as well.
Geelong has made resting players a fine art with an ageing list. Danger, Selwood, Hawkins, Cameron.....whoever, they all get an extra rest of 2 throughout the year. Works for them.
I am not sure where you find Marchbank and Martin are being rested they have being rested for 5-6 years.
You are comparing players that will be lucky to get 10 games out of them per season to 200+ game players over the age of 30
