You know, they are forensically reviewing it, but it does go from one contest to the next.
I think they're always looking for best practice because the health care of the players is, you know, paramount, clearly.
From when you're in the competition boys to what it is now, it's improved dramatically, as it should.
But I think there's always room for improvement in that regard.
And there'll always be times where we'll review things as a footballing media and say, this has got to be done better.
And that's okay.
I think the most important part is that we do look for improvement and we don't just...
sit as a league and say, no, no, we are best practice 100% of the time.
I think the AFL knows that that's not the case and all that we can do as a playing cohort or as a media or consumer of footy is us, we're always looking for improvement.
I think it's because it's...
Every contest is different, Kingy.
Every individual responds differently.
They're reviewing every contest.
Every single contest that you see, they are reviewing forensically from every angle.
And I don't think we want to see doctors in every part of the ground assessing every single contest because then we'll talk about the congestion on the ground and just get off it.
Look, I don't think so, not personally.
You know, I don't...
I'm all for how it's currently done.
Now, if there's information that comes to hand that actually this is the best way to proceed and to process players' health, then I'm all for it.
