The epilepsy is apparently a seperate condition to the mental health one keeping him from playing. Apart from that those questions are valid but probably unanswerable
So is he on strike 1 or strike 2?

Dunno but that's just a pee poor question. Leave the bloke be if he's going through something bad enough to miss the rest of the year
Oh I forgot his mum just died...... No sorry that was Nic Nat..
Oh that's right he's ugly and he struggles to attract the babes.......No sorry that's Cam Ling. 
Oh I remember he was overlooked in the draft and had to work extra hard to make it as a Rookie & only gets paid minimum wages.............No sorry that wasn't him either....
Oh I've got it he's got limited ability and struggles to break into the senior team.....No sorry that's someone else too....

It must just be the pressure of superstardom, the tension that comes with having to decide to live in either Point Piper, Rose Bay or Double Bay, the anxiety that comes with how to invest 10 million dollars and the massive burden that comes with a supermodel fiancé asking which colour bikini looks better in the morning sunrise when your trying to eat your scrambled eggs.
The club that keeps giving.

That's right off. Who are you to make personal judgements about whether people are allowed to suffer mental illness or not? Its a genetic condition as much as it is phenotypic. Rubbish comment!

oh the old genetc bs.
where did you dredge that up from?
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Yahweh? or the great Clawski?

3 Years of tertiary study on the subject as well as every scholarly article ever written on it ever (with perhaps a touch of hyperbole). Or the direct inverse relationship between happiness and wealth  :P

Did I say he wasn't allowed to suffer? Life's full of sufferings from those beheaded in Syria to the scores of refugees without house or land to call home.
Forgive my ignorance but I was just trying to figure why Lance may be suffering at this time especially during AFL finals when his team needs him most and I came up with what I thought were a few reasonable suggestions.  ;)

Aren't we allowed to laugh once in a while Dougey? Im sure Buddy could do with a good laugh right about now..... :thumbsup

No one takes you and your tin foil hat seriously so don't blame me if I don't take notice of anything you say. Your insistent on his drug problem and that could very well be true. If it is true though, what turned him to drugs? Has the drugs had a negative effect on his mental health? Is he trying to stop and is struggling hence needs the time off? So many factors, none of them positive. So why not give the guy a break?

care to point out some of these articles .
in my experience the fall back to blame gentics often means "I havent a clue and blaming genetics is a good cop out"

and since you are so wizened on such things, how do diseases that are due to genetics have and increasing rate ( not just numbers, but rate)
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

More awareness and better diagnosis

only a small proportion. some things like cancer have been known about for a long time and are pretty obvious near the end.

 type 11 diabetes was once called adult diabetes because people only got it later in life, now children suffer from it. again not something that stays hidden and gets misdiagnosed for something else.

when ted whitten was diagnosed with prostrate cancer we were told it is mainly a disease of old men who usually die with it, not from it. how that has changed in the last 20 years or so.

(not suggesting the genetic call applies to these)
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Just go to Google scholar and type in "genetic influences on mental illness". Read away!

The irony is I've heard rumors to the effect of a Wayne Carey Anthony Stevens vibe out at Sydney. :whistle :whistle

Guess I was a bit tough on Tigiritis after all  :thumbsup

just got to love it when someone makes a claim but expects you to do the research to back up their claims
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."
