Winging it
BLUES second-rower Anthony Watmough was in rare form at a NSW media session earlier this week.

The inspirational Manly forward shot a cheeky barb at halfback Brett Kimmorley as the players took their seats for the team photo.
“Ballboys go down the front Noddy,” he joked to the 172cm veteran.
Here’s hoping Kimmorley has a short memory and still gives Choc good service in Origin I next Wednesday.
But Watmough possibly could’ve shown slightly more poise when he was handed a sign to promote an anti-homophobia campaign.
Rather than consider the wider message of the sign, Watmough joked around.
Not his best moment.
