Injury Crisis - Peg Leg To The Rescue

Eddie Hussey announced this afternoon that he was injured and that the Doctor had said he'd would be out for four weeks. "I'll be back in two" said Hussey "and this isn't going to turn into one of those Chris Riddle injuries where I can't shoot, can't kick with my right foot and can't remember who I am". Rovers Manager Steve Hall was concerned to lose his star player at a time when Rovers desperately need competition points. "It's a blow for sure, but also an opportunity to try some different combinations" said Hall "and if we can certainly get past Intergen Net tomorrow if we don't let this get to us". Hall said injuries were a fact of life at this level "Let's face it, Chris Riddle has to take steroids just to get out of bed in the morning, and an artificial peg-leg might actually be an improvement on the one he stands on".

Riddle is a medical wonder - in theory he shouldn't be able to walk.
