Injured jockey Tyler Schiller to meet specialist as riding return looms
Injured Group 1 gun Tyler Schiller is hoping to get the green light to resume riding this week. Schiller has been on the sidelines for the past six weeks after suffering a compression fracture in the core of his T8 vertebrae in a race-day incident on May 28. • PUNT LIKE A PRO: Become a Racenet iQ member and get expert tips – with fully transparent return on investment statistics – from Racenet's team of professional punters at our Pro Tips section. SUBSCRIBE NOW! The five-time Group 1-winning hoop was injured when he parted company with a filly pre-race at Canterbury Park, forcing Schiller to miss most of Brisbane's winter carnival. The star rider has been forced to keep his activity to a minimum to allow the injury to recover while spending time at home with his young son Arlo and partner Alexandra. 'I haven't had any issues with it, it's been stable and really easy the whole way so hopefully when I get the scans on Thursday they are clear and I can go back to trackwork to get fit before I go back to racing,' Schiller said. 'After the scans, I will see the specialist on Friday and if that's all clear I should be able to go to the GP and get it clear. 'I don't know if there will be any physio or anything involved on the cover side on things if I get cleared but at the moment it feels really good.' Alive — Tyler Schiller (@G1TySchil) May 28, 2025 If he gets the OK, Schiller will spend a few weeks riding trackwork and trials to get 'match fit' for his return to the saddle. 'I don't know about trials straight away but maybe within a week and then trackwork the rest of it,' he said. 'Hopefully I can get some fitness back that way and the rest will have to come with racing.' Michael, John and Wayne Hawkes via Briasa (T J Smith Stakes) and Nepotism (Champagne Stakes). Briasa has already been locked in for this year's Group 1 $20m The Everest (1200m) in October while Nepotism is the current favourite for the Golden Rose. 'I can't wait to get back on a few from the Hawkes camp,' Schiller said. 'They've got some nice horses and they have been winning without me which is good, the stable is in form.'

Danny Walker's promising recovery update with 'best-case scenario' revealed
Danny Walker will soon be available to Warrington Wolves head coach Sam Burgess again (Image: Alex Whitehead/ DANNY Walker has issued a promising update on his recovery from injury as he closes in on a return to the Warrington Wolves side. Having been struck down at the end of April as part of an unprecedented injury crisis this year, the hooker appears to be next in line for a comeback as he nears the end of his rehabilitation following knee surgery. Advertisement In the immediate short-term, The Wire's focus will be on making sure their season is still alive when their number nine becomes available again as Walker outlined the 'best-case scenario' for his return. 'I'm doing alright and my recovery has gone really well. Hopefully I've only got three or four weeks left now,' he told the Warrington Guardian. 'I'm back running and I've got another running session for Thursday, so everything is going well so far. 'We're looking at the Leigh game after the break – that would be the best-case scenario I think. 'It's just about pushing it – it's definitely doable but we'll see.' Advertisement It was an injury that ticked off an unwanted career-first for the 26-year-old Warringtonian, who has not featured since helping his hometown club beat St Helens in Round Nine. Walker has not featured since the Round Nine victory over St Helens (Image: John Baldwin Photography) For that game and the defeat at Leigh Leopards before it, Walker had been moved to stand-off after George Williams had suffered an ankle injury before he too was struck down. 'It was a lateral meniscus injury. It's meant to be a 16-week recovery, but we've got some great physios that do a lot of good stuff to get that period down,' he said. 'It's a weird one as I don't really remember doing it. Advertisement 'I just remember training on the Wednesday before Magic Weekend and feeling something in my knee. 'They sent me for a scan and I was just expecting a little tear on something, but I'd done enough to need a big operation. 'It may have started in the Saints game the week before or even before that, but we're still not sure. 'It felt a little bit sore in the Saints game but I just went on with it, but I knew something wasn't right leading up to Magic. 'This was my first ever surgery from a rugby injury. I was a bit gutted about it but it's not been a bad innings having got to this stage without having needed anything like that. Advertisement 'I've done little things here and there but this has been my first big lay-off. It will make me a better player and a better person, I think.' As everyone of a Warrington persuasion knows all too well, Walker has had plenty of company in the treatment room at different stages. Williams, Matty Ashton, Marc Sneyd, Matt Dufty and Oli Leyland have all had significant injuries, as have youngsters Leon Hayes, Cai Taylor-Wray, Arron Lindop and Adam Holroyd. Walker, Ashton, Leyland and Hayes were forced to sit out the opportunity to play at Wembley in the Challenge Cup Final, which The Wire lost agonisingly to Hull KR. Advertisement 'You never want a big injury list, but having a lot of company in rehab does help you especially around games like Wembley,' Walker said. 'For myself and Matty Ashton – we like to think we'd have been out there playing had we not been injured but we were glad to have each other there. 'It's difficult to sit and watch games like that. 'We've all been competing with each other on weights and things like that – Cai Taylor-Wray is another one who is going to come back so much better as he's put on a lot of size, so fair play to him. 'It's been so hard to watch. I wear my heart on my sleeve so I have really struggled watching. Advertisement 'I feel every emotion watching, probably more than I would do playing. 'You just want to be out there helping your teammates out, especially as things haven't been going as well and the boys have been a bit down in the dumps. 'They've been working their socks off, they got a good win at the weekend and hopefully that will build confidence leading into this next block. 'Believe it or not, I don't think we've been too far away on certain things. It's moments where we've been losing it, but we won those at the weekend. 'That's what we've got to keep doing as we've got no second chances now and it's all go.'

Why social media injury recovery videos could do more harm than help
When Kim Kardashian glided into the launch party of her NYC SKIMS boutique on a knee scooter, a mobility aid for people with lower leg injuries – stiletto on one foot, designer cast on the other – she wasn't just managing an injury. She was creating content. And she's far from alone. In 2024, rapper Kid Cudi turned his own broken foot into a viral storyline, posting updates of himself on crutches and in a surgical boot after a mishap at the Coachella festival in California. These high profile injuries don't just invite sympathy; they generate style points, followers and millions of views. But as injury recovery morphs into online entertainment, it raises an important question: is this trend helping people heal or encouraging risky behaviour that can delay recovery? Get your news from actual experts, straight to your inbox. Sign up to our daily newsletter to receive all The Conversation UK's latest coverage of news and research, from politics and business to the arts and sciences. Open any social media feed and you'll likely stumble across videos of people hobbling through supermarkets, dancing on crutches, or sweating through workouts in a medical boot. Hashtags like #BrokenFootClub and #InjuryRecovery have spawned thriving online communities where users share advice, frustrations and recovery milestones. For many, rehab has become a public performance, complete with triumphant comeback narratives. And it's not just celebrities. All sorts of people are turning their injuries, from hiking sprains to post-surgery recoveries, into digital diaries. Some offer helpful tips or emotional support, while others focus on fast-tracked progress, sometimes glossing over the slower, necessary steps that true healing demands. Watching others navigate recovery can be deeply reassuring. Seeing someone joke about wobbling to the bathroom or demonstrate how to climb stairs with crutches can ease the loneliness that often comes with injury. And some creators are genuinely getting it right. Increasing numbers of healthcare professionals, from orthopaedic surgeons to physiotherapists and podiatrists, now use social media platforms such as TikTok and Instagram to share safe exercises, realistic timelines and expert tips on navigating recovery. For people who struggle to access in-person care, this clinically sound content can be a lifeline. But not all content is created equal – and some can do more harm than good. But on social media, rest isn't always part of the narrative. The most viewed recovery videos often aren't posted by healthcare professionals but by influencers eager to showcase rapid progress. Some discard crutches too soon, hop unaided, or attempt high-impact exercises while their bodies are still vulnerable – all for the sake of engagement. What's often missing is the unglamorous reality: swelling, setbacks, rest and the slow, sometimes frustrating, pace of real healing. Bones, tendons and ligaments aren't impressed by likes or follower counts. Healing requires time and carefully structured loading: a gradual, deliberate increase in weight bearing and movement to rebuild strength without risking re-injury. Ignoring this process can lead to delayed healing, chronic pain, re-injury, or even long term joint and muscle complications that can affect the knees, hips, or back. And this isn't just speculation. A 2025 study examining TikTok content on acute knee injuries found that most videos were produced by non-experts and often contained incomplete or inaccurate information. Researchers warned that this misinformation may not only distort patient expectations but also lead to decisions that hinder proper recovery. Similar trends were found in anterior cruciate ligament knee injury videos, where dangerous, non-evidence based practices were widely promoted to millions of viewers. Healthcare professionals are now seeing the ripple effects firsthand. Many physiotherapists and podiatrists report a growing number of patients arriving with unrealistic expectations shaped by social media, rather than medical advice. Some patients feel frustrated when their recovery doesn't match the rapid progress they see online. Others attempt risky exercises before their bodies are ready, setting themselves back. A 2025 study examining TikTok content on acute knee injuries found that most videos were produced by non-experts and often contained incomplete or inaccurate information. Researchers warned that this misinformation may not only distort patient expectations but also lead to decisions that hinder proper recovery. The World Health Organization has also flagged the dangers of online health misinformation. When social media shortcuts replace professional care, patients risk not only slower recovery but potentially more complex medical problems, while clinicians are left managing the aftermath. While supportive online communities can be a valuable source of comfort, the pressure to 'bounce back' quickly can be dangerous. Viral videos and celebrity recoveries can create a toxic sense of comparison, tempting people to rush their own healing process. Research shows that the psychological drive to return to activity, particularly among younger adults, can reduce rehab compliance and sharply increase the risk of re-injury. True recovery isn't governed by trending hashtags; it follows a personal, biologically determined timeline that requires patience, rest, and carefully structured rehabilitation. Seeing stars like Kim Kardashian with a designer cast might make injury look fashionable. But for most people, a broken foot is not glamorous; it's weeks of awkward movement, discomfort, adaptation and quiet, steady healing. Mobility content can inspire, motivate, and connect – but it's not a road map for your own recovery. If you're injured, approach online content with curiosity, not comparison. Learn from others, but listen to your body. Healing is personal. Your recovery won't be dictated by views, likes, or viral trends – it will unfold on your body's own timetable.
