It's just a dedication to his greatness.

How much do you charge for half an hour?

Bless you my son.
A voluntary contribution is all that is required.





If you don't have any money, I'm sure we can come to an arrangement

 

[eddiebankbalance]

Billy! Damn! WTF! Get better soon man, life before career! fingers crossed.

You Australians have no ear. That's New Zealandish.

And Nikki has a very appealing real-life cousin in Detective James Hathaway.

Just trying to insert some humour - relax.

I was actually making a joke. She said horse -as in The poster Bad Horse- I linked into the Cox jokes trying to be funny.

Your joke radar is off.

Edit- ha ha I think my joke radar is off.

Having re-read it now I get it - sorry.

Very possible. It is a bit countrified in that Derry way. Cultured Derry. Didn't think anyone here would have heard of Derry. But Dr Sam must have gone to uni at Queens. Btw, I hate that character. She's so smug & her da was a peeler.

Is a peeler a copper?

We've all heard of Derry down here.

Yep. Actually, if memory serves, he was a senior copper in the RUC?

It comes from Sir Robert Peel, who first established the fuzz as we would recognize them today.

No...no...I don't want a balloon...

The setbacks are how you determine whether the rest/rehab option has been successful. With a progressive increase in loading you see how he responds. If his condition flares up on a kicking drill it's fair to say the back isn't strong enough. Instead of seeing the "setback" as a failure, see it as feedback that the conservative option is not working currently and may not in future.

We were on the same path there for a while because from that I can read that it's like all the other overloading issues we've had in the past 36 moths? Because we've had an awful lot of "feedback" from our playing list over that period including from Jamie himself when this flared late last year and early this year.

I do find it interesting that it takes a setback to determine the success or otherwise of an individualised rehab program! Very curious.

Well success would be the lack of a setback with progressive increases in loading.

 

[Scodog10]

Well success would be the lack of a setback with progressive increases in loading.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that exactly what we were seeing until recently with Jamie? The relative success was there with no setback and then there was an internal trigger (overloading) that has lead to his current position. The club's answer to that is to then seek out a new specialist instead of looking internally (or so it appears). I just find the club's reaction very curious given the track record of that department. Thanks again for your feedback

 

[The Royal Sampler]

I'm not talking about the lack of a setback for a few weeks... it's not really feasible for him to get back to VFL, play a few weeks, have another setback and spend a few more months resting up and then starting progressive loading again. He needs to get to the point where he's not having these setbacks, and to me the fact he's reinjured in a kicking drill suggests to me not that the medical team implemented his rehab incorrectly, but that the conservative approach is unlikely to work. It's something they needed to give a good old-fashioned try first, however.

I only read first and last page of this thread. Wtf happened?

 

[lethalburns]

I'm hoping the internet is not a reliable source of info on Pars Defec.
People with this type of fracture have trouble living day-to-day normal life without pain.
I'm not sure how he has been doing any sort of exercise at all and its more than likely going to cause him long term issues.

Fair to assume the dictionary isn't.

Give him the rest of the year off, he'll be like a new recruit next year. I don't know much about the injury but it sounds like trying to push it is not the solution.

Let's just hope he is playing footy next year.

So the thread title could just as easily have been career not over.

It's asking the question. There's nothing wrong with the thread title. Read up about the injury, given the shitty, unprofessional way in which the club is managing it, there's every chance we've prematurely ended his career.

Hopefully that's not the case because Elliott is one of the few genuinely classy players we have on the list.

I was referring to the original tread title and TG's view, despite him saying that it was 50/50 (not sure where he got it from).

The title has been changed 2-3 times. If quoting please understand the context of the post SE.

I posted in that thread 20 minutes or so after it started. That was the thread title when I posted and there's nothing really on the first page (where your post was) to indicate the title had been changed significantly outside someone saying "at least put Elliott's name in the title".

Actually doesn't particularly change the basis of my post anyway. There's a real chance they actually have ended his career.

I've had it for over 20 years. The initial pain and instability in my lower back was considerable. But after many years of sorting out how to deal with it effectively I live a relatively pain free life now. I still have slipped disc episodes which is one thing the instability can cause, but I can also spend 6 hours a day on my hands and knees hand grinding concrete everyday and not have any back issues except for muscle stiffness.

When I was first diagnosed, the only surgery option was spine fusion and at the time it was considered to impact drastically on mobility. I think the fast bowler Bruce Reid had a spine fusion and it killed his career. I'm not sure if it's more refined these days. But the one thing that created stability was doing abdominal exercises. But then again, I'm not trying to play league footy and the impacts he would cop would be significantly greater than just trying to live everyday life.
