They've got these new containers with vents in them to keep your vegies fresher for longer. The vents are adjustable depending on what you put inside... And they have these other ones that hang off the shelves for you to put half a tomato or onion in if you chop one up but don't use all of it.

Hey, maybe that's something Stevo can do to keep the mind fresh during his rehab.... Sell Tupperware!... is he married? Its mostly a chick scene so he might be on to a bit of a gold mine!

Cereal tho, if you do read this Stevo, don't @#$%&! about with neck injuries. You're no good to the group if you come back not quite right and they have to worry about your well being. Get as much info as you can and do as much strengthening as you can. Don't come back until you have traps like this bloke:

I know much will be revealed at the press conference but I feel that it's important for posters to know just how difficult it can be to diagnose and then treat neck injuries. It is perfectly normal for several eminent specialists in the area of neck and spinal injury to have different opinions - even if they look at the same scans or other diagnostic imaging results. After more than thirty years of treating people with long-standing pain who have either had unnecessary surgery or surgery which was too late I think we should all take the news about Nick as best we can given Privacy and Medical Confidentiality concerns. Having treated many of the Blues players and others in the late 70's and early 80's I know how difficult this whole process can be. Nick's long-term health must be the dominant factor to be considered and not the health or success of our much loved Blues

Well said acudoc. As passionate Blues supporters, I think we cannot help ourselves but want Stevo to be well just so he can play (as we all agree that he is in great form, and it would be a shame that he cannot apply that form to our side) sooner rather than later. Or if the worse case scenario occurs, it will be devastating if he had to retire prematurely.

However, having said that, we really should overlook that and hope that his health is in tip top shape for his own personal well being and quality of life. Even if that means he will not have the same abilities as he did before this injury. It will be pretty sad, but Stevo, I genuinely hope that your injury will be well taken care of. Even if it means you don't play again (worse case scenario). Go Stevo!!!

Hypothetically speaking if Carlton were to make the finals would Nick risk it then even though it would be roughly 20 weeks later? Or even better make the GF ?

Finals + injury = hyperbaric chamber.


I'll get Dr Jim to explain the goodness it does beside shifting injury clouds.

Option to have 8 - 10 weeks off, but operation will deal with issue straight away.

Bulging disc puts pressure on spine, so decision made to operate.

Explored all options, Stevo is confident he can be bigger and better come next year. All advice was very similar.

Having op next week.. will "probably" miss rest of season. Was opportunity to have 8 - 10 weeks off then reassess the injury but opted for surgery. :( :( :( On the up side.. It's not career ending.. Stevo spoke of coming back bigger and better in 08 and

This just opens the door for another midfield type to be fast tracked into the big time.

WBY, it'll only help with the inflammation and increasing circulation at the injury site.

You might be thinking of its use in post-irradiation recovery in the neck area?

That's about all I could find, naturally I can log into uni and dig up some medical journal pieces.
