   I find it hard to believe that Wood played one player short. 
  Where's the canon for that?

  SS 302:
  "You missed the last Quidditch match, we were steamrollered by 
  Ravenclaw without you"
  .

  Oh no, they had a seeker all right, just not a very talented one.
  I'd go so far as to say they have reserves for the positions, but 
  they are just not considered important enough to mention 
  specifically. Though it wouldn't have hurt JKR to tell us who
  *did* 
  play in Harry's place. (sigh)

  Me (Izaskun):

  "Harry shifted guiltily in his seat. He had been unconscious in the hospital wing for the final match of the previous year, meaning that Gryffindor had been a player short and had suffered their worst defeat in three hundred years". Chamber of Secrets 

  They didn't have a reserve player. 

  Cheers, Izaskun
