The injury to Nick Riewoldt has brought the Saints back to the pack. It demonstrates how the competition has evened up and how important your key 6 or 7 players have become. To some degree Brisbane's loss on the weekend could be attributed to Luke Power's absence and unbalancing the Lions midfield. We have had a few injuries that have afffected the Blues in recent years as well: eg Kouta going down with his knee took the wind out of our sails heading to a Grand FInal in Round 20 2000. More recently losing Waite last season maybe cost us a win or two which may have resulted in a home final. I know Walker isn't in the same group as the above but he looked to have finally found a niche in the team and in the last two games at least had given us a missing X factor in the backline. Will his injury hurt us over the rest of the season or do we have better depth this season to be able to fill the holes? CB |
