MELBOURNE’S Jack Viney has undergone surgery on a fracture to his hand.  

The club’s AFL High Performance Manager Selwyn Griffith provided an update on the midfielder on Tuesday.

“Jack was completing a training session in Alice Springs as part of his return from concussion,” Griffith told Melbourne Media.

“During that session, he slipped over and unfortunately, follow-up imaging showed that he had sustained a fracture to one of the bones in his hand.

“After consulting with a specialist, Jack has undergone surgery and is currently recovering.

“The plan is to assess his availability once the wound is cleared, and we’ve followed up with the surgeon.”

    No justice in the world!

    Hopefully he’s 1,000% recovered from his concussion when he finally gets back on the park.

    A fractured hand will be fine after the bye.

    According to the Sydney Hand Surgery Clinic: "In general it takes 6 weeks for a hand fracture to heal and a further 6 weeks to reach near normal strength. Very heavy lifting and contact sport should be avoided until the fracture has solidly healed (8-12 weeks)."

    Let's just hope for the best.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
