AFL: On the Couch analyst Nathan Buckley says the AFL must make changes to the handling of concussion after a weekend where clubs hesitated to take off players.

Richmond legend Dustin Martin is said to have “checked out” at Tigerland, with ‘internal frustration’ reportedly building within club headquarters .

Watch every game of every round this Toyota AFL Premiership Season LIVE with no ad-breaks during play on Kayo. New to Kayo?Speaking on Nine’s Footy Classified, AFL journalist Sam McClure shared his latest intel on the game’s only triple Norm Smith medallist — including Richmond’s apparent oblivion to said golf day.

“He then played golf on the Wednesday. Richmond, I spoke to at length tonight, had no idea about the game of golf — they didn’t confirm nor deny whether it took place. He trained lightly today.”McClure reported rising tensions with regards to how the Martin situation has played out. The three-time flag winner played his 300th AFL game in a Round 14 loss to Hawthorn but has since missed trips to Perth and Adelaide, as well as a home bout with GWS.“Clearly, with his lack of training and lack of coming to the club in recent weeks, there is a belief at Richmond — whether they publicly admit it or not — that he has, to some degree, checked out of that part of his career,” he said.There is “frustration building internally” at Punt Road about Dustin Martin’s current situation.

After departing Tigerland midway through last season, Hardwick — along with 2017 Richmond premiership player and now-assistant Shaun Grigg and former superstar Tigers defender Alex Rance — made the trip north to commence a journey with the Suns.
