Sydney - An Australian professional football player said on Tuesday he plans to have one of his fingers amputated in an attempt to improve his game. Brett Backwell, who plays Australian rules football for Glenelg, a suburb of the city of Adelaide in South Australia state, told the Australian Broadcasting Corporation he has suffered from pain and restricted movement since he broke his left ring finger three years ago. Doctors had suggested fusing the bones in the finger, but Backwell rejected the proposal. He said he believed that amputating the finger was the only way to stop the pain and allow him to keep playing.
