Any word on his injury yet?
Manly back-rower Anthony Watmough is in doubt for next month's Anzac Test after badly injuring his elbow in the Sea Eagles' controversial win over North Queensland on Friday night.
Watmough has been battling the problem for several weeks and went into the round-seven NRL clash with his left elbow heavily strapped.
He aggravated the injury in an attempted tackle on Cowboys centre Brent Tate shortly before halftime in Manly's 26-21 win at Central Coast Stadium.
The 30-year-old didn't return to the field for the second half.
"He has been carrying it for a while and I think he has inflamed it," Manly coach Geoff Toovey said.
"We will have to wait and see how it is on Monday."
An extended stint on the sidelines would be a cruel blow for Watmough who was forced to sit out last year's end-of-season World Cup in England due to a knee injury.
Kangaroos coach Tim Sheen said last week Watmough was very much in contention for a spot in the Australian side to play New Zealand at Allianz Stadium in two weeks.

as far as Foz is concerned,he is likely to be out as well,maybe give that young Manania Rudolph a shot,he is a real live wire by all accountsRiverEagle said:That is very disappointing...time to see how Hasson and JSL handle more game time, and hopefully TRed steps up again soon ( as well as Horo picking up the slack too ).
Get well soon Choc.
