don't think so hip impingement with labral tears due to femoral dysplasia is real and responds well to treatment, if indeed this is the problem.

I think it might be something like this ???

??????    femoroacetabular impingement    ?????

    He came into his draft year with hip issues didn't he?? Or am I remembering wrong, I know he didn't play a huge amount in his draft year due to injury, which we knew and were happy to give him a lot of time to get right. 

    Ankle injuries in his U18 year and some more since.

    This is a tiny bit different, to how I originally understood it, from years ago. (perceptions)...   I imagined it was a born irregularity,  but maybe part right, in that it could be hereditary, as in a propensity to develop the issue,  later in life as an adult.?   

    I imagined being born with a little spur on the Femoral head ball.

    Not sure this is the right thread.

    I'm a bit worried about Sam.  I can no longer find the tweet but a few days before last week's Casey game a footy scribe tweeted that Sam had closed his twitter and instagram accounts. 

    Anyone have any info on Sam's 'soreness' from that Casey game as he is not on the latest injury list?

    Coincidence?

    Hope Sam is ok.  He is young and all the noise and negative attention around his contract could be quite disheartening.   Hopefully, he is back playing soon and can get some confidence up. 

    And tells his manager to pipe down about the contract to media folk.  Change manager even!

    Perhaps he is the sane one, realising that there can be a lot of harm from overusing antisocial media.

    If that is what he has done and why, congratulations to him.

    Aah, sorry  'c f'...   I wasn't talking about Sam Weideman in that post...  but about my Original perception...  how I interpreted hearing of  " femoroacetabular impingement",  from the beginning.

    With the kayo product delivering only sports there is no need for Foxtel to regard sports as a loss leader to get subscribers to sign up for the more expensive packages.

    The math is relatively simple $300 per year per subscriber. Maximum subscribers 1.5 million ( think I'm generous) but let's say 3 million.

    That makes a little under a  billion in total each year from which you need to deduct operating costs and profit before you come up with the money left for rights.

    The present AFL deal is around $400M per year and the NRL around $250M. Add in cricket and you are at the end of the pot before they pay for the remaining sports. Sure Foxtel doesn't pay 100% of these rights fee but it pays a very sizeable chunk.

    Of course Netflix etc could come along with a killer offer but they are around $15 a month at present so I can't see the return for those companies and they have no need to loss lead.

    Then again you might get  a company like Uber that just pours money at the so called future without regard to profits in the short-medium term.

    Getting back to Sam... he'll be paid what he's worth.

    From the article "Rupert Murdoch's News Corp, which owns 65 per cent of Foxtel, flagged cuts to "non-marquee sports" .

    The marquee sports in Australia would be AFL, NRL and Cricket

    My reading of that is that they will focus on the marquee sports, this may mean more money. I for one only have Foxtel for the AFL in 4k. No AFL no Foxtel for me.

    Treatment for hip impingement should begin with:
    • Resting the affected hip.
    • Modifying your activities to avoid moving the joint in a way that causes pain.
    • Exercising as recommended by your doctor or physical therapist to strengthen the muscles that support the hip.
    • Taking anti-inflammatory and pain medications.

     @trout heard from a family source that surgery may be required. According to @Satyriconhome he trained in the rehab group yesterday. According to @DeeZee the club has said Sam is fine and will play for Casey next week and does not require surgery.

    sounds a bit like our gameplan... absolute chaos

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
