It is understood that had Yeo's injury happened earlier in the season, he would likely have gone under the knife. Penrith have made a habit of having players play through injury to be part of premiership wins throughout their dynasty. Yeo himself avoided surgery on a shoulder injury at a similar time last year, and missed just two games before returning. Penrith face Leniu's Sydney Roosters in a blockbuster top-of-the-table clash on Thursday night, which Yeo would not be expected to play in. Fullback Dylan Edwards has also been a week-by-week proposition, after missing three games through a shoulder injury.
