Brother spoke to a few physios who looked at Freeman the other week. They said the issue with him is he can't hit top speed anymore without having a strain as most of his hamstring has been weakened to a level where it's very susceptible.

So Collingwood and StKildas physios are clowns then? I say you and your brother are full of s**t.

Not sure they are clowns but Nathan had surgery last year on his tendon and nerve near his hamstring. Do you research on the results after there is nerve damage.
I'm not sure you have played football but there is a big difference between running at full pace on a training track and running at top speed in a game.

Yeah your right both profesional clubs got the results and just said * it we will still offer him good coin and multiple years. You are a clown.

Clearly our recruiters and medicos were hoovering up mountains of Jakey's Looney Dust at the time we handed Stringless Nate his golden ticket

He had surgery on his hamstring nerve last year. Scar tissue had attached itself to his nerve.

Yes he did but only this blokes brother and us know about or Collingwood and StKilda know but don't care.

The surgery on his nerve is reported in the Age and Herald-Sun last year. It's not as if anything has been hidden.

Just that two AFL clubs at least didn't see it as a problem. Why do you think that is?
Good point I hope Jake Carlisle is given 2 years by WADA so we can play the kids.
Maybe on that theory we could put Roo out in the paddock and bring him back when we're ready for the next crack at it. I'm sure he wouldn't mind a few seasons off in the USA.

You do realize that physiotherapists in this country have a duty of confidentiality for their patients right?

Reckon ol' TrooperFarqwad might just be having a bit of a lazy troll.
He's been saying this in other places as well though for the past few days.

I'm personally a bit worried. I heard that Daisy had serious problems before Carlton drafted him. Seems to have been true. We had a medical staff that said Roberton was okay to play then missed nearly a full season of footy and nearly a career over the injury he got from playing on it. Our medicos have made a few errors of judgement, they make mistakes and miss stuff. If you look at a scan it's like diving water, it's going to based around what the injured player tells them and what they can see on scans. If collingwood wanted to unload an injured player and don't disclose it it is possible it slips through the cracks. Not saying he's right but there is a possibility.
Yeah based on his history and this latest setback, I won't be pencilling him in for 200+ games until he gets through a season or two without re-injuring it.
Sounds like perhaps he needs to spend a whole heap of time strengthening the area before he really amps things up again.

I don't get why people shoot down a messenger straight away and go all defensive calling him a troll etc etc. Obviously everyone has an opinion or news and he has actually backed it up with an article.
Maybe our recruiters don't rate next year's draft and thought of we can fix this kid then we have a potential A grade midfielder on our books instead of an unknown pick in the 30's.
Time will tell who made the right call with regards to this. Up until then it's all discussion.

Considering the messenger is claiming that medical staff employed/appointed by the club are giving out patient information to effectively random people I will most certainly take it with skepticism.
Maybe his brother works in the same field and they were discussing patients, who knows. One thing is for sure. It will all play out over the next season or so on who got this trade right.

He has said his brother is a physio before, but surely his brother would know better then to release information of high profile patients visiting the practice.

My cousin who eats heaps of pizza, was told from his local Italian restaurant chef, that due to the amount of pasta Petracca has eaten during his life, his ligaments in the knee have actually turned into spaghetti.
