And whether that's in the broader media scrutiny or whether that's unfortunately now in this case, I thought it was really surprising that

that I think from a broader game perspective, that was used against Zach last night.

I don't think it's helpful because what we all want, I think, is for players to give more of themselves to grow the game.

And they're up for it.

But when we have incidents like this, they second guess it.

And that's not good for any of us.

And it's certainly not good for the AFL as well.

And that's a conversation we'll definitely be having in coming days.

Yeah, so what does a competition look like where the players lose confidence in the media and the reporting around delicate incidents and then lose confidence in the tribunal and MRO process?

Well, it's not one that's really built for success, right?

And so I think it's incumbent upon all of us to make sure that we get through those challenges.

And generally, the relationship between the players and the media, the players and the game has been fantastic.

We've got an issue here that we need to work through and resolve.

I've got no doubt there is a solution that we can all work towards, but there's got to be an appetite to do it.

Do you call Andrew Dillon today and make these thoughts known to him in a more casual, maybe personable way?

We talk regularly, whether that's today.

I think I'm seeing him tomorrow.

So yeah, but yeah, and we'll certainly have conversation about it.

And I think these are not necessarily thoughts that haven't come up in our discussions previously.

I think we've just seen them play out in the last 24 hours or so.
