ROK said with less interchanges this year, more players were logging longer minutes and the game was becoming faster and taking a greater physical toll.

Could he just be getting on a bit?

[Kirkari]

Maybe, but by all accounts he's the fittest man at the club, at least endurance-wise.

Good to see Luke Parker doesn't get to skip the recovery session despite not playing a game on the weekend!

Does that mean that we are the 2nd most tired team in the comp? Come on, get real. ALL players are tired - ours are just inaccurate.

Understandable in the last quarter, but how many behinds did we kick in the first???

agreed. especially with all that fitness work they did in the pre-season. I still blame the coke zero ad!

Doesn't explain the miserable return from set shots, where they get a good breather before kicking. Snap shots and so forth are always going to be 50/50, although you get some players who just don't miss, Johnson from Cats, Rioli from Hawks. I can't explain it, but it has become a bit of a trend over the last few years
