Viney’s foot is worse than we think

It is getting tiresome to read from non medical people, who didn't examine his injury, that he came back too soon, especially when we hear from him and club medical staff that the current problems are not the ones that he allegedly came back too soon from.

Fair enough Redders, however as pointed out by others, the current problem may not be the same injury but it would be hard to argue that its not related to the earlier injury.  As we know, a injury may often arise due to problems with other parts of the anatomy. Hamstring, calf soreness, achilles- pain or injury referred from back etc etc

Fair enough that it MAY be related to the earlier injury, but of course it may not, but it is certainly not hard to argue that it's not related to the earlier injury as we don't know exactly what the earlier injury and the current injuries are.

Correct me if I'm wrong Red but wasn't his injury last year originally reported as 3 or 4 weeks and he only missed 1 or 2?

Maybe he doesn't even know if new problems keep surfacing. Then again if it is bad, he and the club may not want fans to know.

I think so but who is to say the 3 or 4 weeks was correct. Maybe it was best guess and then he improved quickly to be fit enough to play.

The point I am making is that we don't know as we are not Doctors and don't examine the injuries.

Also it is not an exact science. Oh you have a finger injury that will be 17 days out of footy. It is best guess made on experience and examination.

We do.

The first injury was plantar fasciitis and the second injury stemmed from the first.  The second injury was a stress fracture in his third metatarsal.

I agree that we're not privy to any recent sore spots.

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that he's 'right on track'.

I speak to Jack at every session I get to, last time I spoke  to him he said he was right on track

No but I think we may have a fair idea. 

Not everything in life is evidence based.

And by right on track he meant right on track for Round 1.  

Conclusion - the players give Saty nothing, as we always knew. Case closed.

Well, it started out as "soreness" then became plantar fasciitis then stressies and at last report was a combination of both plantar fasciitis and stressies - all with wavering levels of seriousness.

That is the sort of hamfisted story line which says his foot is stuffed.

Agree with all points.

In regard to last para, you are probably right as no-one really knows, so opinion only.

Its a reflection of supporters concern.  A view that takes into account the mistake last season when he played prematurely, together with the 6 months recovery over summer, and continuing doubts about the timing of his comeback.  And the importance to the team in ensuring that he is cherry ripe when he returns.

I agree with this, and with my albeit limited exposure to medical personnel in the afl - in addressing things that even THEY don't know a prognosis for, the only thing they choose to do is wait. So in essence, the medical team, advised by JV's pain experience will proactively be waiting... until inflammation subsides...as they too don't know (not through ignorance, nor malpractice, simply because JV is a sample size of one that every treatment and recover is unique to the individual).

I've broken the Cuneiform bone before. Was late 20's and it still gives me slight grief every day, 20+ years later. 

Was also diagnosed with Plantar Fasciitis several months back after a strain at work. Painful little bastard. Definitely makes you walk differently, so as not to feel the stinging pain that goes with it.

 

I can see why those injuries lead to others.

I’m confused as to why this thread was started. Does someone have solid information?

When I was at training on Monday morning, I noticed a medico/doctor inspecting Viney’s foot closely whilst he was sitting on the ground. As soon as that concluded, he took no further part in the rehab group training and headed back to the AAMI park complex. Before the foot inspection, he was doing light work in the rehab group.

That was the only concerning thing I witnessed. I wouldn’t jump the gun just yet in fearing the worst, although I’m aware of how unclear the club when it comes to updating it’s supporter base re: injuries.

Its difficult to have solid information when  clubs keep the information secret & send misinformation around.

so we can only speculate.

 

A bit like the father with 5 girls, locked out of the delivery room. for hours after.

Comedy Festival starting, I do know with Viney, like some others, but keep to myself, unlike some others, but Club has put out an update so everbody knows now

The plan was always Rd 1, why wouldn't it be, didn't work out that way

Nice to see the flat track bullies coming out of hiding to join in with your 'humour'

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The move of “Disco” to a key forward post looks like bearing fruit. Turner has good hands, moves well and appears to be learning the forward craft well. Will be an interesting watch in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.
