NEWS: Nick Riewoldt broke his collar bone in round 14 against the Bulldogs and will be out of action until round 19.

NEWS: Nick Riewoldt silenced doubters who thought he might have returned too early from his round 1 collarbone injury against the Cats in round 7 by taking the Saints to an early lead, but as his midfield supply dried up later in the game his influence waned. He ended with 13 touches and 11 marks, and kicked 2.4. | Fantasy coaches would have been excused for being wary of using Riewoldt, but he showed that he will continue being the reliable stat machine that he was last season - as long as there are enough fit men up the ground to kick it to him. | |||

NEWS: Nick Riewoldt fractured the clavicle in his right shoulder in the round 1 game against Brisbane and will be out until round 6, according to injuryupdate.com.au. Before getting injured, he kicked three goals from 9 possessions and 5 marks. | This is disaster for any fantasy coach who used their #1 pick on Riewoldt. However, it is a long season and Riewoldt is young enough that he would be expected to heal well. Stick him on the bench until he plays again. | |||

NEWS: 20 possessions, 12 marks and two goals made it a normal day at the office for Nick Riewoldt in the Wizard Cup second round loss to the Bulldogs. | He will probably look even better when Gehrig comes back, but it's hard to see how. If you have the #1 pick in your league, it's not even a choice. Pick him first. | |||

NEWS: Many pundits had Trent Croad as soundly beating Nick Riewoldt in their Hawks/Saints first round Wizard Cup match, but Riewoldt still managed three goals, 10 marks and 14 possessions to lead fantasy scorers for the game. | It seems little short of a shotgun will stop Nick Riewoldt being the deserving #1 pick of fantasy coaches everywhere. However, it should be said that once Fraser Gehrig comes back, Riewoldt won't be as much of a focal point as he was against the Hawks. | |||
