"Nathan Murphy ... hasn't had the capacity to get back to an AFL activity. He hasn't been able to go back to the footy because of the noise. "He mentioned some times he struggles to rise. That is actually why these big payments are vital, but as our company mentioned, possibly the rug's being actually taken out at the moment with this considerable improvement, which is a bit of an unpleasant surprise and also a concern."
