Syndesmosis I believe. He had a good re-season prior to that and the Terrier would have ensured that he was right to go as far as his knee is concerned.

Yep, it was an ankle earlier this year which kept him out.

He looked as comfortable as all get out the way he moved. It was very pleasing to see.

Im not sure. You see plenty do knees and come back (plenty only just come back, and then do it again).
Syndesmosis seems to render some blokes completely useless even if they do come back.

I would suffer with a hot spot just in front of the outside ankle bone, and many also seem to get bone chips or fragments of scar tissue becoming a problem.
Kicking the footy, and other actions that require you to extend your foot can aggravate recovery, and often if there is permanent damage you end up with some pronation that leaves you susceptible to further ankle rolls.
It's a bastard as you get older because you roll your ankle so easily. Back in my day strapping was the only solution, now they operate for a better long term fix.
Coming back too soon is a real risk, for some reason the tendons and ligaments in that area seem slow to heal and regain strength.

Ed Curnow ain’t the fastest guy going around and his disposal isn’t elite. But the interchange cap sure has given him the opportunity to showcase his endurance. I thought he was really good when fatigue slowed down a lot of players against the Hawks. But perhaps the smaller SCG isn’t ideal from that point of view.

Makes me wonder if we are using Cottrell correctly, isn't he the kid who smashed Ed's record?

I think Ed can do a job on one of their mids and the facts are that we only have Cripps, Walsh and then Ed as our frontline mids. The rest are unreliable and not be trusted in a game where its going to be stoppage after stoppage more than likely.

Possible a win can put us in the 8 this week. Just need us to win and 4 sides above us to lose.
