Quote Lyon: â€œHe has got a slight impingement and we have had it investigated because he is a very important player.

â€œIt hasnâ€™t quite settled since Christmas the way we wanted it to so therefore you continue to investigate it because it is unacceptable after four months off to go into round one at 98 per cent.â€

could this effect his aspirations to be sole captain?

imo he had it wrapped up but the injury might change things a bit if it means he won't be out there in round 1

Th club will always tell the fans any good news relating to a star player.

hey guys settle....

all we have heard is that it was 98% right but they would only play players if they are 100%, he said two weeks. So if we don't hear anything late next week start worrying.....

in the meantime lets just sit here and worry about losing him to the GC in 3 years time

they also said he would definetly play in the first NAB cup game last year, and we didn't see him til round 3 in the proper season, so my faith in what we hear from the club isn't too high....

And by the same token, the papers would love to scream "Riewoldt out for year" on the front and back pages.

So no news is good news IMHO.

Look at the the positives, if hes out we have so many options (unless they get injured of course) to replace him

Kosi proved that he can substitute for roo, look at all the points he kicked

You can't replace Roo.

You can't replace your best player.

Riewoldt worry not so drastic

Michael Gleeson | February 21, 2008

WHILE football's rumours mill dictates that Nick Riewoldt is either undergoing knee reconstruction or missing the first eight weeks of the season, St Kilda insists the case is nothing so drastic.

The club says Riewoldt has tendonitis of the knee and nothing more. It says that while he will not play this week, he should play the weekend after.

There is some suggestion that he has a minor strain of his anterior cruciate ligament but this is significantly different to a tear of the ligament and can be managed.

He is able to train fully and pain only appears when he attempts long kicks. The pain is not expected to unduly affect his season.

A different scare went through Moorabbin on Friday night when youngster Raphael Clarke collapsed after the win over Richmond.

He was taken to Epworth Hospital for precautionary scans which cleared him of serious damage and while he will not play this week he has been cleared to play afterwards.

It seemed that Clarke, who has been plagued by injury in his short career, suffered dehydration in the heat before suffering a knock to his ribs.

His manager Ricky Nixon said the combined effects of the dehydration and the knock were felt to have caused the collapse.

"I have spoken to him and it does not seem to be something that is an ongoing concern. The doctors felt it was just a bit of dehydration," Nixon said.

I'm hearing similar rumours from people NOT connected to the club.

IMHO its a bunch of people hoping that reiwoldt is injured.

reiwoldt isn't an asswhipe, is a genuinely decent person on the field and gives freely and generously of his time.

petty jealousy I think.

mate of mine was listening to 3mp yesterday and they had a news report saying Roo was out for 8 weeks and would return in about round 5 or 6...

Jumped on here for clarification but nothing lol. surprising that such a report slipped under the radar, and it seems questionable anyway.

Well it was all cleared up this morning in the Hearld Sun article. So, he is right to play probably next week - so breathe out everyone!!

maybe the smoke was just a troll having a cig out the back.....

nah but serously, the amount of scuttlebutt is becoming silly.

Last night they had the seven headlines on SEN (about 4pm?) and one was that fevola had gone to hospital with a serious injuy. SEN did a ring around, found out from ceo swan that yes he spat out a little blood on saturday so they took him for a check up that night, cleared of any injury and that was that. almost a week later sever bring this up and beats it up LOL......

the media need a good kick up the arse some days!
