SUNS TV: Pearce Hanley Update Pearce Hanley speaks to SUNS TV about his recent hand injury.
If his left hand was still causing him any discomfort, veteran Pearce Hanley certainly didnt let it show at training on Monday morning. The Irishman looked unhampered as he entered his second week of full preseason training since he broke his hand in the International Rules series last November. Hanley was seen wearing strapping tape on his hand, but was still able to participate in everything senior coach Stuart Dew threw at the group. Ive just been back in to doing some tackling and some contact and pretty much doing every drill, Hanley told SUNS TV. Its good being back out there with the boys and doing a full session. Hanley was limited to light training duties prior to Christmas which Dew told the mediawas simply precautionary. The 29-year-old has been self-treating his injury with a strengthening ball and also had to make adjustments in the way he went about training. I didnt have a lot of treatment it was more just me being modified in the gym and on the training track, Hanley said. With the scar tissue Ive pretty much just been massaging my own hand just making sure that I dont have to get operated on again. With Hanley back in the fold the SUNS injury ward shrinks even smaller. Harrison Wigg (ankle) is still in rehab however Callum Ah Chee (hand) has resumed non-contact training with the squad. Monday mornings training session consisted of skills and conditioning followed by more intense gameplay scenarios overseen by coach Dew. Hanley says Dews nurturing approach to coaching and football has resonated through the squad. Hes been really good so far, hes got a calming influence on the group and trainings been excellent, Hanley said. Just with the way hes implemented his new game plan, the boys are picking it up and I think everyones excited to get into games now.
