TRS and I went further into it via PM. There's another reason I think Collingwood have mismanaged him. But saying it here would be naming a specific person which I didn't want to do. I never claimed to be an expert and openly stated how I formed my opinion. Which mind you, ended up being spot on. Was I probably too harsh in my language relating specifically to what TRS was pissed about? Maybe, but he is hopefully a little clearer on why I said what I said, rightly or wrongly.
I'm well aware I'm not medical expert and have never claimed to be, but let's also not forget, regardless of my Googlefu, don't act like medical malpractice isn't a thing in the real world and there legitimately ARE shitty doctors out there. Even ones who have studied for years to be one. When I sadi Collingwood were mismanaging Jamie, that wasn't specifically aimed at the medicos and maybe I should have been clearer on that. Which is why I brought up the Brisbane thing. The Brisbane situation reeked of the football department strong arming the medicos. Which could be happening with Jamie for all we know.
You were not spot on about your assertions that Collingwood, either medical, physio, condioning staff etc mismanaged Elliott's injury. This has nothing to do whether malpractice exists, of course it does. It's about whether you can form a valid opinion about whether Elliott was mismanaged. You can't and TRS explained that to you.
Not sure what your other reason is but if it doesn't involve detailed inside information obtained about the specifics of Elliott's injury and management, acquired from the club, which has then been reviewed by an independent expert in the field who then subsequently passed their deliberations on to you, then it doesn't change that you don't know.
Sometimes a bit of knowledge is a bad thing when someone doesn't understand their limitations.
