Danger calls for game cuts

-

AFL Players’ Associatio­n president Patrick Dangerfiel­d has no interest in interchang­e cuts, but called for the length of games to be shortened.

As the AFL’s hierarchy grapple with the look of the modern-day game, the Geelong star has backed the concept of reducing the time players are on the field. He highlighte­d such a move’s capacity to lessen the demand on players and allow for more entertaini­ng contests.

“I think that’s a bit of a shared view from quite a few players,” he said.
