I didn't arrive until 10am and I don't remember Tambling being out there when I was there now that you mention it X. I was paying attention more on those that were doing drills close to the Station end of the ground where I was sitting. I've sent an email off asking for clarification.

thanx mt!
if bling has pinged his hammy again i will be very upset. last yr i argued with miller about this cos they wont take my advice about his back related hammy issues. they keep injecting muscle relaxants and pain killrs in him but thats not fixing the problem. my bro , a tiger member also is a very respected and successful gonstead chiropractor, he deals with these issues every day but they still wont take bling to see him as they believe all the bs the medicos and physios do and say! its really getting up my skin, they believe they are using the best resourses and treatments and they are not, how many times do these reoccuring injuries have to happen b4 they realise "hello this current treatment aint working!"

X, I've just been looking at the photos from training and although I didn't notice Tambo at the time as I was concentrating on watching Browny, Tambo was sitting just behind Browny on the boundary with an icepack underneath his right hammy  .

I'll keep the thread titled as unconfirmed as I'm only going on this pic and I don't know what the actual status is. Doesn't look that hopeful though  .

I've been hearing this since about midday, so i'd say its probable!

I think this is his 3rd hammy within 1 and a bit seasons so i think its fair to say the kids gonna have a lot of hammy problems in his career!

mt u should be a P.I.!

this  just should not happed, that is all these back related hammy strains. its about time miller and the rfc bloody listen to me and do something about it, 1 and 1/2 urs of bs medical treatment has achieved jack poo, my bro could fix his problem in 2 minutes, its plain obv, bling has whats called a subluxation in his lower spine, causing nerve interference to his hammy. no muscle relaxant or massage or pain killer will improve this sublaxation, doctors have no idea what they are , nor physios, thus if they cant find these subluxations, they cant treat them! only a specialised chiropractor can do it! one adjustment to the problem area and a gonstead chiro will fix it!

So X is it more like sciatica?

Tambo worries me that he's gonna have these injuries throughout his career.
Hope not for his sake - great potential.

stuff him off

4 hammies in 12 months makes him a liability.

X since your a back specialist is it normal that my lower back is extremely sore when i wake up and the only way to make it feel better is to stretch and get it to crack say about 15 times?

exactly. sciatica is a pinched nerve as u know which as a result the referred pain goes down ur leg. whats happening with bling and many afl players who suffer back rel hammys, is that the nerve that is used to relay info from the brain to the hammy is in a way pinched or interfered by the subluxation of that specific vertebrae. now that subluxation can a/ cause swelling and interference to nerve function or b/ pinch the nerve causing interference or c/ both.  as i said, medicos, docs physios, cant treat this as they cant diagnose it as they dont have the knowledge to do so, its specific to chiropractic

lol, im no specialist, my bro is, thats why i know a bit about it, in ur case, it may be that ur bed /mattres isnt really suited for ur spine, it may be tightening  as u say thus the stretching helps. when ur back cracks, its not bones grinding, its actually gas escaping from the joint that is trapped. (in a way its like a fart) when a chiro adjusts ur back the cracks u hear are not bones grinding , its this gas escaping

My spies told me last night that it's more of tweak than a tear - so it's not a bad one

Having a de-generated back related hamstring condition (put simple my lower back is stuffed ) - I do know what it is like to get up in the morning and not be able to move and how tight my hammies used get.

Over the last 12 months things have improved as I now have a set of exercises I have to do 3 times per day - in the morning when I 1st get up, when i get home from work and just before going to bed. I also have to go for short walks during the day to keep everything flexible Will admit that in the last few months (because of some other stuff going on) I've been very slack in the stretching department and as a result the backs gone backwards and I've needed more physio every week

Its a "back bed", i don't care what it is getting all those cracks at the sametime is like a shot of morphine!
