Sandilands toe problems

[rednblacks]

Thought there must be a thread for this but can't find it.

For christ sake send Sandi to the US to get some specialists to look at his feet. I reckon the top surgeons over there who treat basketballers would have much more experience with these sort of foot problems with blokes of this size. He is too valuable a player to fiddle and fart around with local doctors who probably don't have much experience in this area with blokes of his size.

WTF was sandi playing in a game that meant nothing?
It's like harvey's concussions he received when he played have come back.
Crazy shit!

It's more of an NFL than a Basketball type injury, I thought. I hope we can get the best out of our big man again in 2012.

 

[eastfreo75]

At the game, he seemed to not want to kick. I agree, send to the NFL doctors in the states.

CS indeed

 

[Nickos66]

I was shocked that after a couple of games back it's gotten aggravated again. What the hell!!?!?

Yeah, ship him off to the yanks to tinker with his gigantic foot, they'll get a larf out of it too.

 

[peppy la pew]

Yep off to America, because in this country there are no specialists.

 

[Nickos66]

Didn't you get the memo? America have better everything!

 

[Chops_a_must]

America! **** yeah!

Now crack my foot and step on my toes!

 

[Bradesmaen]

It looked like he was carrying a calf/achilles issue, not the turf toe.

Doesnt need to be sent anywhere they know the problem an how to fix it.

Only way to completely fix it is to stay off it an not put it under much stress for a LONG time could be a month could be a few months.

Ofcourse being so important and a player that just wants to be out there playing anytime it doesnt feel too bad he wants to play.
Will never heal that way.

 

[Reginald Perrin]

If its to be America, he has to go to Texas. Everything is bigger in Texas. Yee haw!

Seriously though, there are plenty of people in Australia who should be able to fix a toe the size of a baby's forearm.

Disagree, if Sandi was good to go (and he looked like it given the last couple of games) then he should have played. He needed some games in him.

Having said that, If the toe can't handle a few games back to back, then that's clearly an issue that needs to be sorted out. America, Russia, Mongolia, Mars, I don't care, find the best and sort it out.

Maybe we should just cut it off Chick style.

Sandi seems to be managing ok so far with the toes he's already missing.

 

[Nickos66]

When it comes to running, kicking, balance etc. Big toe is far more important to your 2nd toe. It's for this reason he can't just go to the tool shed and drop another mower blade on his foot.

Have you been stoned for the past month?

We literally had noone else available.

Joel Houghton? Would've rather gone in a man down than risk complicating an obivous injury, in a game where the result means ****all.

This bloody toe has cost me 250 bucks in 2 dream team finals seriously all he had to do was kick the goal instead of giving it off to Kepler

 

[Admiral Byng]

I'm sure dreamteam stats are his highest priority.

I know, but it is frustrating none the less

Could very well be a part of the problem.

 

[apuchar]

It was an ankle

 

[Chops_a_must]

It was an ankle

And what is it now?

 

[apuchar]

And what is it now?

A slightly more swollen ankle. Just thought i should pass it on before you all pack him off to America.

 

[estibador]

Send him off to Arizona anyway. He'll come back weighing 150kgs and running like the wind.

Just gotta remember to send him back mid-season for his booster shots...um... I mean... for further conditioning.
