April 14th 2009 06:18
BRISBANE has suffered a major blow with ruckman Matthew Leuenberger ruled out for up to three months with a knee injury.
Leuenberger limped off in the third minute of the Lions' 33-point win over Sydney at the Gabba last Saturday night but returned to the field, only to aggravate the injury.
The Lions initally hoped the 20-year-old would only miss four to six weeks but scans revealed a meniscus cartilage tear in his left knee
He has undergone surgery to repair the damage and is expected to make a full recovery
