In Season - Loading/Periodisation: Put your conjecture here.
They did, very true. There's been a lot of great examples out there. I think what I meant with my original comment is that it never seems to be in the week to week discussion of the experts as to the effects that loading can have on a team's performance. For instance with relentless pressure running and spreading in a game. If a team was way off in that area, instead of bringing it up as a possible factor like we do and Binman has numerous times, they usually just criticise the lack of effort and say it needs to be better etc. I'd be hard pressed to find an episode of say First Crack this year where Kingy, Joey and whoever else has just once raised this topic or even considered it as a factor for a team's performance.

Perfect 'loading game' that one as well.

Without reading yet does his last name start with 'G' and end in 'oodwin'?

When were the Scott comments again A F? I've either missed them or forgotten. I think I mean more so from the pundits, the so called experts who ask the questions about the form slump and then try to answer with analysis. Your Kings, Montagnas, Lloyds etc

This has been the closest anyone in the media has come to discussing the topic of loading.

Should Jack Viney be captain again?
How could anyone say he isn't one? Crazy.

Should Jack Viney be captain again?
I like the question. I do feel that Jack would be undoubtedly more prepared and better in the role the second time round but having Max as the sole skipper seems to be working a treat for the moment. He's the spiritual leader for me and you don't need the title to be that.

2022 AFL National Draft prospects: The next batch
Certainly sounds like a forward that likes to get involved.

Farewell Luke Jackson
For sure. It would still be nice for North to finish last though for that bit of safety blanket and take away some of that leverage for managers and clubs at the negotiating table.

CHANGES: Rd 21 vs Collingwood
I really really hope the Ginnivan incident with Gawn coming off the ground last time is one of those 'You don't forget' moments for the guys. I like the kid and think he can play but I think the rest of Australia would like to see him get some just desserts on national television.

TRAINING: Monday 1st August 2022
Don't want this to get lost in the airwaves. He really is one of the more laser-like focused footballers I've seen. The shot after the siren in the GF, the mark on the line from Harmes' shot against Hawthorn.. These are small examples but his ability to block out background noise and focus on the task at hand is exemplary, it has shown me that when Tom sets his mind on something he really goes full bore at it. This has to be a great thing when it comes to this recovery. He'll give himself every chance possible.

Trade and Free Agency rumours
The Grundy topic is pretty divisive at the moment. I can definitely see why some think he'd be a good fit and could allow Max to do more. At first glance for me it just doesn't feel right, it feels like Batman asking Superman to join him to be the new Robin. I just canβt get my head around how it works, especially with that kind of contract involved. Not saying my mind is 100% made up on it, he may well be someone who can help us. Maybe some more info comes to light from now until October that will have us thinking differently but right now I just donβt see it.
