Newman in doubt for round 1. All the best to Newy's health but a blessing in disguise, hopefully someone stands up to claim the spot.

Newman should've gave it away last year and wouldn't be in this position. His body is not up to it anymore it's the harsh reality

He will be 33 in May. Should've given it away as he's not good enough anymore. I do wish him well though footy is a professional sport

I agree, I don't However agree that this heart condition is a result of him Continuing on as suggested by Phil.

Unfortunately this will also be the end for Foley I think. :-\

Heart murmur puts Newman in doubt for round one

CHRIS Newman is in doubt for Richmond's round one clash with Carlton after suffering an abnormal heart rhythm at training.
The club revealed on Tuesday that the veteran defender had experienced "some discomfort" at training recently, which saw him have tests that confirmed a cardiac arrhythmia.
The 32-year-old has met with a specialist, and will have a procedure to correct the issue.
"Chris has seen a cardiologist specialising in this area, and he has confirmed that the diagnosis is a relatively benign one," the club's football manager, Dan Richardson, said on the Richmond website.
"However, the decision has been made to rectify the situation with a procedure to eliminate the trigger of the abnormal cardiac rhythm."
It is a frustrating interruption for the Tigers and Newman, who heads into his 15th AFL season with 251 games to his name. The club hopes the concern will not keep their former captain out for too long in the home and away season.
"The procedure is relatively straightforward and has been done successfully in many high level athletes, including AFL footballers," Richardson said.
"We are expecting that Chris will be off training for a couple of weeks, and then should be able to resume full training, and play soon after."

Does Foley have a heart murmur too, or does he feel Chris's pain like an identical twin does?
-
Despite his selfish and misguided decision to play on for the last couple of seasons, fingers crossed it's nothing too serious.
Onya Chris

Hope it's nothing serious, but he should have been in doubt for round 1 anyway due to his form going backwards.

Old Captain has a broken heart....
.....Richmond will do that to ya!
Get well soon Chris all the best. :thumbsup

Even if Foley and Newman don't play another game, at least we got our list profile right.

It's not a Heart murmur!!!!
He has a supra ventricular tachycardia. He will have a electrophysiological study and ablation of the aberrant pathway. This will be done percutaneously through the groin.
He will be able to play in a few weeks.
-
good to hear because he hasn't been able to play for a few years now.

Will it help Foley get back and play?
I hear the two are linked

Serious question Doc
Is there a chance the procedure wont be successful, that is it wont correct the irregular heartbeat/rhythm?
My late Mum had a irregular heart beat thingee and the procedure they did, didn't work and because of her age they wouldn't do it again

Oh ok , that's what I was thinking it could be if it wasn't a murmur :lol

Nothing really to do with this quote but how good is modern science. My old man had a quadruple bypass in January. He is 60 and is already back working full time (and he's a painter), doing the necessary physiotherapy and reckons he hasn't felt as good for 15 years.
So I have no doubt Chris will be fixed up just fine. I just really hope he misses round 1, maybe 2, and someone puts in a stellar performance ;D

There is always a chance the procedure won't work. However, in young people the problem is usually a different one to older people and far more likely to be successful. He has a simple accessory pathway that needs ablating most likely. Your late mothers irregular heartbeat was different. She almost certainly had atrial fibrillation I would think. That is much harder to fix and fixing is often unsuccessful especially in the elderly, those with dilated atria and those whose irregular heartbeat is almost permanent. Does that help?

Hey Doc, what about Foley? I read the 2 are linked, is Foley still stuffed!

Doc, what's going on with Morris's hair?

Doc, what's going on with Morris's hair?
It's not a Haircut!!!!
He has a supra frontal follicle cardia. He will have a cranium study and ablation of the folilicle pathway. This will be done percutaneously through the damaged arm.
He will be able to play in a few weeks.

Has this been peer reviewed?
-
Hey Doc, what about Foley? I read the 2 are linked, is Foley still stuffed!
Foley is not stuffed.

Doc, what's going on with Morris's hair?
Why pick on Morris? How about Martin? How about Batchelor?

Yes that makes perfect sense because what you describe is what she had
Thanks

:clapping :clapping :clapping nicely said, not sure i completely agree with the assertion but nevertheless the timing was impeccable.

I would suggest that is a mental health issue, not a physical one. :lol

No, your right it's not a hair cut, its a catastrophe.
-

He has a supra frontal follicle cardia.
They will replace the missing part in the follow up operation

Whats the difference between a murmer and abnormal rythem?

A murmur is an abnormal heart sound you hear with a stethoscope. It usually signifies a valve problem in the heart - either a valve isn't opening up well enough to let blood through easily or it isn't closing well enough leading to blood going backwards when it shouldn't. It can also be a "flow murmur" which is innocent and is due to higher flow than normal.
An abnormal rhythm is the a change in the normal way a heart contracts due to abnormal spread of the electrical signal that helps co-ordinate the heart. Often it can make the heart beat extremely quickly and thus inefficiently. Some of these abnormal electrical pathways can be "burnt" or ablated forcing the electrical activity to go down the normal paths again.
Ok?

I feel all oneeyed-richmond forum users are blessed to have the knowledge of Doc YandBB on board :thumbsup

Or to put another way - his V8 engine has a shonky HT lead causing sporadic mis-fires, lumpy idling, engine imbalance, poor fuel economy & loss of power. Does that help? ;D
See your local friendly mechanic ... or the bloke at Autobarn ... :thumbsup

Tiger shows heart: surgery success for Newman

RICHMOND defender Chris Newman will be back in training in the coming weeks, but is unlikely to play in round one after a successful heart operation on Wednesday.
The Tigers revealed on Tuesday that the veteran defender had experienced "some discomfort" at training, which saw him have tests that confirmed a cardiac arrhythmia.
The 32-year-old subsequently met with a specialist before undergoing a procedure to correct the issue.
He was expected to miss the final two weeks of pre-season training and coach Damien Hardwick said he was unlikely to be available for the Tigers' season opener against Carlton on April 2.
"We'll take that off the table at this stage and make sure we get him right and available for round two," Hardwick said on Thursday morning.
"It was a successful operation, so it's not a major concern for us.
"It's no so much the operation, it's the healing process of the wound that's the concern."
Earlier this week, football manager Dan Richardson said the operation was "relatively straightforward and has been done successfully in many high-level athletes, including AFL footballers".
Newman, who has played 251 games, is heading into his 15th AFL season.

Feel for him but surely he's gotta be thinking of calling it quits.
On another note. No pre season games and missing a chunk of training coming up to the start of the season, what's the bet he waltzes straight into the team when his ready ::)

Dimma's new nickname for Newy is the 'Tin man" ;D.
