Does anybody actually know what's wrong with Swanny?

[Anzacday]

There's lots of criticism of him and some of it may be justified. However, I believe he's carrying an injury - possibly a groin which may explain his season so far.

 

[Smoky]

Can't bend his wrist backwards... harder to handle the ball and impossible to lay a tackle.

 

[THATSGOLD]

He's either playing injured or Father Time as caught up to him. We are all guessing at this stage.
All I'll say is he's not helping is win games anymore.

 

[Yidaki]

Something to do with his groin I think.

 

[Collingwood pro]

Could be a similar injury type to Hawkins last year. Where the injury wont get any better by resting or surgery and playing wont make it any worse.

 

[Luke Sicari]

Didn't he have his ribs heavily strapped a couple weeks ago?

Based on the above comments the answer is Nobody knows.

Says it all,whatever the reason

 

[robbos13]

no idea and i am very dissapointed so far this year but in all honesty i dont think its through lack of trying in the last month. ( he genuinly looks like he just cant do what he wants to do)

that being said he is an absolute champion and im stayin on him to turn it around, maybe not this season but next. hopefully

Have heard from a medico who has links to the AFL docs he has been suffering plantar fasciitis all year. Would explain his loss of pace and movement.

Hawkins suffers from Pindikacitis. I don't think it's anything like that...

Too many cheeseburgers?

 

[Premier Pies]

I heard from my auntie's, great uncle, twice removed, second cousin's talking ape that Swanny has grointidious maxihurtous bustedarseous and will not recover until he goes out and gets on the piss with the Ratpack, midweek style.

care to explain what plantar fasciltis is

From Wiki

Plantar fasciitis is a common painful disorder affecting the heel and underside of the foot. It is a disorder of the insertion site of tendon on the bone and is characterized by scarring, inflammation, or structural breakdown of the foot's plantar fascia. It is often caused by overuse injury of the plantar fascia, increases in exercise, weight or age. Though plantar fasciitis was originally thought to be an inflammatory process, newer studies have demonstrated structural changes more consistent with a degenerative process. As a result of this new observation, many in the academic community have stated the condition should be renamed plantar fasciosis.

It is a inflammation of a thick fibrous membrane on the sole of the foot. Causes chronic pain. It something he could keep playing with but if doesnt settle could have surgery in the off season.

Not sure on that.

 

[PhiloBeddoe]

Not sure on that.

Wasn't that the same injury Robert Harvey had so he decided to jump off a stool and snap it completely. Allowed him to play without pain for the rest of the year. I don't remember hearing it from anyone in particular so it could be shite.
