Why? I thought he'd been doing really well and in my opinion, should definately not have been dropped. Is it injury or has he just plain and simply been dropped?

I reckon this might be the main reason, but after rewatching the game in its etirety yesterday I have to say I though Rix could be dropped for the next round. I know it's easy to say it now, but it really crossed my mind, as he didn't have a good game against Port, and both Ackland and Blake were much better than Rix. Special mention to Ackland's improving form after his come back. He's been playing a lot better comparing to the beginning of the season. Might it be he's got now fierce competition for the ruckman spot?
Anyway, summing up both things, you can end up with the answer to why Rix has been dropped.

Rix must have shown some good form in the last few weeks for Casey since he has come into the side with Ackland, Blake and Kosi. Admittingly, it might be so he can play key back but I dont reckon they would have brought unless he had practically selected himself through good form.
