Thatâs right.
There never was a Mr. Peterson.
Thatâs because nrl is nowhere near the running intensity of afl. Apples and oranges

On JD I wonder if the injury was such that it wouldnât get worse, and the time off would be the same, so they decided to play through it. It became obvious it wasnât working so they gave him the rest.
On Anzac Day, there is a solution here, give Collingwood and Essendon an early bye in the years where the gap is too short. GCS and PA have had their bye already, so whats the difference? I feel that because it only comes up every few years the AFL pushes it onto the backburner and everyone forgets until next time. The AFLPA should go hard at ensuring that there is a minimum 5 or 6 days between games as part of the player agreement.

Discovering the sentiments projecting entreaties of melancholy is an expression of solicitude principles.
Or so it says here.
Overall, Crow is doing fine - my guess is EFC would be be below average for games missed in the last three years, but the concern is players getting injured during training - This is one issue which needs to be addressed.

Iâd prefer an injury at training over one during the game

Huh? Replicating match like situations and intensity at training is kind of important if we are to improve.
Also, just because injuries are discovered at training doesnât mean they occurred at training. Players get smashed during matches and then itâs often not until a few days later at training they notice that cramp never went away or that bruised thumb was a fracture.

IMO the short turn around on anzac day was compounded by giving us a 6 day break straight after it. Crazy fixturing considering the other 3 teams had Sunday games for weeks after it, and there are regularly 3 games on a Sunday so they could easily have worked us all in for a 7bday break for at least 1 week.

It would have meant playing against Richmond on a Sunday or Collingwood played Melbourne on the Sunday.
The ANZAC day eve game has stuffed it up, particularly for Wednesdayâs now. If it wasnât for that our game would have been part of round 6 and all the problems would be gone
Iâd prefer no injury in training when the player reported tightness before that session during the â â â â â â â preseason.

Injuries at training are a non-negotiable - From memory we lost three players with training injuries in-between our last JLT game and Round 1 - From memory it was Dea, Ambrose and McNiece - My guess is EFC have lost 10 to 12 players with training injuries in 2017/2018.
