Hope he has a successful recovery and resumes normal transmission, 37 is way too young to suffer through this sort of thing.

I know a few issues like this have been outed in EPL medicals ahead of transfers, but maybe they dig a little deeper when 50 million pounds are at stake.
Best of luck in your recovery Ian, you're a diamond champ.

Mine only got picked up because of shortness of breath and my daughter's hole in her heart only got picked up because of our family's history with hearts!
AFL medicals would be more about fitness, flexibility, agility, strength, etc, they would never mri everything. And something like 1/4 of the population has a hole in their heart, its just varying sizes though.
My heart failure only came on in my mid 30s too, any tests beforehand would have shown nothing except for a heart valve that only has 2 flaps instead of 3 but works perfectly fine.

Biggest takeout there is that you actually have a heart! ;-)
