2 weeks rest 4 weeks no contact- just a perfect example of the journalistic license they use to create a story out of nothing.
Im pretty sure just about every AFL player is about to take 2 weeks leave. I know a WA AFL player was in a panicked state yesterday,couldn’t find his passport and is due to fly overseas tonight.
Said passport located in early hours this morning. As D11 said Max is the player you’d least worry about having a rest. I have no doubt he will use the non contact week s to get strong conditioning base in
