Robert Heatley Stand / Re: AFL Rd 10 2024 Post Game Prognostications Carlton vs Sydney
One of the biggest pieces of nonsense sprouted by players and coaches is this rubbish about “One soldier out, next soldier in.”

It might work for the Russian Army… but it sure doesn’t work for us.
Not with our current list of injuries.

A ‘good soldier out’ puts an additional burden on your better players who have to carry an extra load.

It puts an additional burden on your fringe players who lose support from, not only the missing player, but also the star players.

Roles change
Structures change,
Your prime movers are covered more easily.
Players carry injuries into games through necessity.

What we saw last night was the cumulative effect of a series of hard games, and missing players.
It takes a toll, and unfortunately it may not be a short fix.
We’ll get players back…but I suspect we’ll also lose some.


Yep.
Consistency
Cohesion
Connection

We'll bring in a couple more underdone next week too. Motlop and Saad will be ready.

All those injuries plus blokes playing still underdone.

History repeating itself.
