Re: Roberton.
What if the intense physical activity required to play AFL was the cause of his condition in the first place? How are they going to know for sure the cause if he is only allowed to do moderate exercise that it won't happen again when he exerts himself?
I guess the medical experts know what they are talking about.

This isn't a normal issue. We don't own Roberton. This is a private issue to a degree. The other thing is that the club may well not know much more. My mum)who has never drank or smoked) out of the blue had an elevated HR a couple of months ago. She's been on meds and the HR is now normal. After a million tests they still don't know what caused it
His family needs the news, not us.
It's none of our business, really.
We will find out when the time is right.

Ahh Not sure how my post makes me a vampire?? Or that I advocated for a running commentary. In fact quite the opposite? Did you quote me by accident or not read what I wrote??

Re: Roberton.
My limited knowledge suggests it will be a result of one of
1. problem with electric signals to the heart
2. problem with heart muscle
3. problem with blockage or hole in the heart
Someone with 1. which caused a delay in ventricle operation, a little device corrects the timing sequence.
Would not be surprised if he ends up with an automatic defibrillator inserted as a precaution.
Playing AFL football again good luck.

Now that I am old and know so much more, I know that I know so much about so little, and so little about so much.

Re: Roberton.
How would you know? It’s a rare occurance and Dylan didn’t get technical about it (nor should he - he’s not an expert).saintbrat wrote:saintspremiers wrote:An interesting presser. Would’ve been better for Dylan to have his cardiologist there to explain the situation rather than putting pressure on a footy player to explain a very unusual situation.
I guess when you’re an elite athlete you’ve got to be very risk adverse - any normal job and you’d be fine to work. Hopefully he uses this period to see if life as an assistant coach/analyst etc is something for him. The bloke will need something post footy with 3 kids already!
Good luck Robbo
Many clubs wouldn't even give us that much-- Good on the saints and Dylan
I’m sure most clubs would’ve handled this in a similar fashion to us.
