Just saw this on the Herald Sun site, very surprised by it all. Lucky for him it seems he has got rid of all the cancer, but for him to play half a season of footy so soon after is amazing and probably the big reason why he dropped in form so quickly.

The man, whose superb career controversially ended in June last year, said the disease hit him like a sledgehammer and was behind his shock early retirement.
Edwards, a dual premiership player, was diagnosed with testicular cancer in November, 2009.
Keeping his condition hidden from his teammates and most of his family and friends, he had a malignant testicle removed in hospital on Melbourne Cup Day.
