40:54 - QUESTIONS
Recently there’s been a video floating around in which To’o talks about his diet and reveals that it is actually quite poor. Do you think nutrition could be a factor as to why he’s missing more games this year for what seem like recurring injuries?
NSW carrying injuries into Origin 3 - there seemed to be so many. Do you think they would’ve been better served going with fully fit options instead?
Positive update on Will Warbrick this week? How do you think he will go on return?
No immediate surgery for Toby Couchman, will he realistically come back this year?
I’ve had nerve transfer surgery and I can’t even imagine how Tom Flegler could ever return to footy. Do you think it’s possible and have you had any successful cases in your own work?
For draft - any injured players who may have been dropped you’d consider stashing for finals? - kini, CT, KL, coates, wong, bula
What’s the most common ACL graft in NRL players? Which one do you think it best for recovery?
