Always good to test out innovations like that, just need to get some stats from independent studies to see how effective they are. Considering no other head padding has shown signs of working so far I’m not optimistic about the Guardian Caps though

Dylan Brown is integrating back into team training as he continues recovery from a partial ACL tear 14 weeks ago. Expected back in full training in January - main concern moving forward will be re-injury risk with up to 50% of partial ACL tears progressing to full ruptures (eg Sam Walker).

Josh Schuster is dealing with a calf injury - was shown running on anti-gravity treadmill earlier this week. Extensive calf injury history for Schuster, with this the 5th year in a row he has suffered a calf injury - they are known for lingering symptoms during rehab.

Despite the separation & appearance of the joint players rarely require surgery - function usually returns & more a short term pain management issue.⁣ ⁣ Ponga suffered his in late 2023 & played the entire 2024 season with no reported issues. Tom Trbojevic now hoping to do the same.⁣

Kalyn Ponga a good example of what a shoulder looks like after suffering a Grade 3 AC joint injury.⁣ ⁣ Complete tear of the ligaments surrounding the joint results in separation of collarbone from the shoulder blade - creating a “step” at the point of the shoulder.⁣ ⁣

Josh Schuster using an Alter-G treadmill at Rabbitohs training this week. No issue reported but worth noting with his lower limb injury history in recent years. Anti-gravity treadmills are used to reduce the amount of body weight/impact felt while running, often during injury rehab.

High contact from the crossbar is forceful, direct and no mitigating circumstances - clear send off for mine. Video brings concern for laceration and/or concussion.⁣ ⁣ Has to be the first time in history this has happened, hope the player is OK!⁣ ⁣ 🎥 via Dwain McGuinness

Can you believe that Brien guy calls himself THE nrl physio & doesn’t even work for an nrl club

Joseph Suaalii forced off with what the Wallabies initially feared was a broken right wrist. Thankfully medical staff now more optimistic no fracture present - by video would hope not enough direct contact in tackle. If fractured usual recovery time ~6 weeks, if not quick recovery.

Thoughts with Jamayne Taunoa Browne who has announced his retirement from rugby league. JTB suffered 2 achilles ruptures within 4 months of each other this year - achilles repair surgery involves an insanely tough rehab process even without setbacks. Wish him the best!

Final Magic Sponge Pod for 2024 is in the books! - Will Nathan Cleary & the Panthers shoulder surgery trio be fit for Round 1? - Cameron Murray 6 month recovery? - Accountability session - our best (not many) & worst (heaps) calls from 2024

Toby Rudolf will miss the start of the 2025 season after scans revealed he requires shoulder reconstruction surgery (via 9News). Initially hurt it late in the season then aggravated while surfing in Bali - will undergo latarjet procedure to stabilise the joint. Usually 4 months recovery.

Dylan Edwards has undergone latarjet shoulder reconstruction surgery this week to address a chronic shoulder issue (via SMH) Same surgery Nathan Cleary had - usually a ~ 4 month recovery time which will have him touch & go to be fit for the Panthers Round 1 clash in Las Vegas.
