43:54 - QUESTIONS

Whats going on with the David Fifita situation? Is it common to have a difference of opinion between between medical staff and player?

What’s the purpose of the injections Kiraz got to come back early from his calf injury?

Did you see Scott Drinkwater grabbing at his shoulder after landing on it? Wondering if there could have been a subluxation there, anything we should be worried about?

I remember RTS taping up his knee and playing on after suffering an ACL injury. Do you have any other examples of players playing through ACL injuries and performing OK?

Why can some players play on but others have massive pain post ACL injury?

Is medical retirement a possibility for Will Warbrick?
