Roosters utility and all round good bloke Connor Watson got to spend some unexpected time with Andrew Moore and the ABC Sport NRL Commentary team after picking up a throat injury. However, he might have been missing the Roosters round 13 game with the Cowboys for a different reason had he not been injured. There were plenty of suggestions that he would have been named in the New South Wales squad for Origin 1. But he explained that while he's disappointed it's fed his desire to make sure he can fulfil his dream of playing for the Blues.
