Seems to be a pay back to Geelong for something...maybe spending the bucks to upgrade. AFL make too many rules on the fly.

As for the resting players I fail to understand why a team of 22 that travels from one side of the country to the other a dozen or more times a year cannot rest how ever many players they want. Bloods more new players with a taste of the elite level in prep for next season or maybe a finals call up if injuries hit. Dementia is having a lend of himself "He said the NBA in the US had rules to prevent teams from doing such a thing"
Basketball? He is comparing basketball with AFL?
4 Qtrs of 12 minutes playing time in a primarily non contact sport.
