A question about Riewoldts glove....

I just have had a mental blank....how long has Riewoldt been wearing a glove, was it just since he hurt his hand or long before?

I just remembered Goddard saying on Footy Classified, that he hadn't missed for goal since removing his glove to take his shot....this form continued on the weekend so I was just curious?

Since about halftime against Collingwood round 19 when he hurt his wrist/hand.

I thought it was broken webbing of the fingers?

It's that "loaded glove" that Waldo Von Erich used wear on World Championship Wrestling. Maybe all the Saints players should have been issued with one? Who knows, we may have beaten Hawthorn & be playing Geelong in a cage match!
