Oh, bollocks....

Yeah, I know cricket season's only just started, but I'm already gosh-awful shyted with The Ashes, so thought I'd have a look at what The saints are doing in their pre-season.

You know, as you do, if you prefer AFL to cricket.



From saints.com.au:

Hamill Undergoes Arthroscope

As reported last week, St Kilda forward Aaron Hamill experienced some soreness in his right knee last week as the Saints commenced their pre-season training.

After further surgical opinion Aaron Hamill has undergone an arthroscope on his right knee for further assessment.

St Kilda has confirmed that star forward Aaron Hamill has undergone arthroscopic knee surgery.

The 29-year old experienced soreness in his right knee last week as the Saints commenced pre-season training and after seeking medical advice, opted for the procedure.

Hamill was restricted to just nine games for St. Kilda this year including the club's 18-point loss to Melbourne in the first week of the finals.

His 2006 season was punctuated by an arthroscopy which saw him miss 13 games after rupturing his posterior cruciate ligament against Geelong in round seven.

It has been a continuation of injury woes for Hamill who only played 12 games the previous year after suffering a similar leg injury.



Nerf, nerf, nerf, nerf, nerf. Sigh.

This team has to be the unluckiest team in human history when it comes to injuries (or, you could argue there's something wrong with their nutrition, physiotherapy or training regimes, but I'm not going to do that because I have no idea whether that's the problem).
