The idea of having the week's break before the GF has merit, irrespective of the concussion perspective.
Air time to local leagues, fresher players for GF, Get done with all the awards rubbish in the first week etc.
So potentially a Grand Finalist could play twice in a month, I'm not sure that's all that fair plus the nerves that a player goes through for a week would be insane at the elite level, having to do it for a fortnight would be crazy.
Chelsea is an amazing person with a huge heart, I really feel for her as it would be bloody hard watching, I've met her a few times and rang her by accident several times and she is a highly spirited happy person, I hope she gets the opportunity to lead her team to premiership next year.
