Whateley · AFL's memo on resting players | The Leadership Portfolio with Luke Hodge (04.08.26) · 3 Aug 2026 podcast

They put that in. voice-verified

And then they're telling us how to prepare best to get the best out of our players to ultimately win a premiership, which that's what all 18 teams are doing. voice-verified

You get a million dollar bonus at the end of the year for winning that. voice-verified

I think that would have been better by the AFL just to leave it alone because players and clubs are going to do what they see fit. voice-verified

to prepare himself. voice-verified

This just brings up a talking topic for everyone to sort of throw mud at the AFL again. voice-verified

So I'm sort of looking through the ladder at the moment. voice-verified

And the only team that can really rest a couple of players with the schedule they've got at home is probably the Cats with North Melbourne and Richmond Lake. voice-verified

All the other teams... voice-verified

are playing for either a top six to get in there or are playing for a wildcard spot. voice-verified

And what we've seen so far, Carlton, the informed team with Frio, they can do anything. voice-verified

St Kilda are the same. voice-verified

So I don't think teams will have that luxury. voice-verified

So I think the AFL are just... voice-verified

That's the thing. voice-verified

Clubs are going to do what they see fit. voice-verified

And by the AFL bringing this out, as you saw how firm King he was last night, he goes, I'm coach of the Melbourne Football Club. voice-verified

I'll do what's the best interest of my club. voice-verified

And as you said in there, it's not about playing players in different positions and tanking to lose a game. voice-verified

once you pick a team, you'll play the best team you possibly can. voice-verified
