"You have actually received no safeguard right now, so you're one weekend out of the remainder of your life (being impacted), and you need to have that (insurance policy) amount of money to endure."' He is the video game's most destructive gamer'|03:34 Herald Sunlight co-worker Glenn McFarlane proclaimed the "piece of cake" change the AFL requires to help make. "It is actually a downright piece of cake, in my thoughts, that we need to have to limit get in touch with training in the pre-season," he told Fox Footy. "Our team are actually going to have to at some point do that in-season too, our company are actually heading to have to have a time limit there at the same time ... it's an outright no-brainer, and also if it is actually mosting likely to take place, allow's produce it happen currently." Clark revealed the three players that, prior to the change, lately taken advantage of seven-figure payments.

"Nathan Murphy ... have not had the ability to return to an AFL video game. He have not had the capacity to return to the footy because of the noise. "He pointed out some days he struggles to rise. That is actually why these large payouts are actually critical, yet as our team stated, perhaps the carpet's being taken out currently using this substantial modification, which is a bit of an unpleasant surprise as well as a worry." Participating in Murphy in being actually clinically retired this year are actually Melbourne flag-winner Angus Brayshaw, Western Bulldogs draftee Aidan O'Driscoll as well as most just recently ex-Collingwood forward Josh Carmichael.
