26:10 - Muscle Nation Recovery Room

Jesse - How do NRL players return 4 weeks after tearing their plantar fascia? I injured mine at training and took almost a year to feel better

Steve (Ugszilla) - Is Keaon Koloamatangi’s injury going to hinder him the entire season, or will he slowly start to improve each week?

Tom - Jye Gray went down on his left shoulder in the Good Friday game and went down on the same shoulder in Perth - has he made it worse by playing or just unlucky?

Will - this season there’s been a few PCL injuries already, do you think there’s any reason for it? Could it be the speed of the game and players getting to their knees for a quick play the ball?

Matty - If you could put headgear inside the skull, would it have a better chance of preventing concussion?

Elliot - How many head knocks/concussions before you can never play footy again?

Benny - I haven’t seen anything on Cam McInnes for a good month?

Tom - Is Leo Thompson a POD with Gus saying he’s due back next round?

Nick - any news on Billy Smith?

Matt - Is Harry Grant a sell? Well below best scores
