Lots of media going around about Munster’s groin injury potentially being a lot more serious than reported.

Frank has said that he doesn’t quite know what to make of it, with it appearing all good at times and then a big problem again the next. Still Frank said Rd 5 looks to be the return date.

Cam Smith said he couldn’t see how Munster is back Rd 5 as he still isn’t even running.

This injury has been weird since it was announced.

Having been involved at VFL level years ago, that's the sort of thing that would happen with AFL players. There'd be a set amount of minutes they were allowed on comeback from injury. I wouldn't read much into it.

Still on returns, Nelson Asofa-Solomona is back from a hamstring injury and played for Storm feeder side North Sydney Bears in NSW Cup. The star prop notched up 112 running metres and 10 tackle but ill-discipline crept into his game as he knocked on twice and conceded a penalty.
Speaking to the Bears’ social media team after the game, Asofa-Solomona confirmed he pulled up from his injury “all good” but admitted he wasn’t happy with his return.
”I was super nervous hey,” he admitted.
“I’ve played in a grand final and I think I was more nervous today than for a grand final.
“It was good to get out there and blow the cobwebs out, but it was a disappointing effort for myself... I was pretty disappointed with my game.”

Isn’t it annoying how they do offical injury updates every week until a few get injured and they keep it quiet

There's a stack of our academy guys who aren't playing as well like Cody Williams, Gabriel Satrick, Suliasi Prescott, Poasi Manu, Jared Nauma and Angus Hinchey with no mention of what's wrong.

geeez an ACL will be bad news for him and the FG team. He was going to be vital at stages during the year. Lets hope it's not that serious.
Remember this day, men, for it will be yours for all time
