Richmond has made this rule a “joke” in the first game with Vlaustin coming off with a’sore knee’. They are daring the AFL to sanction them and the AFL is too weak to take them on. So they have exploited it massively already and set the standard.
The idea of a concussion sub was good because that meant an automatic 12 days off but now with a knock on the knee being legit it’s a’joke’. Puts great pressure on the integrity of doctors. They should, but won’t, change it immediately.
