Sydney Roosters half Sam Walker had plenty of incentive to get back from a serious knee injury, but one top priority was the prospect of playing with freakish Mark Nawaqanitawase.

Walker on the left is creating opportunities and general havoc. Former Wallabies star Nawaqanitawase, known as "Marky Mark", on the right wing is turning the impossible into reality and making it look ridiculously easy.

If the two can link up at any point in the ninth-placed Roosters' run to the finals, which Walker has on his bucket list, then look out.

Walker used to play on the right side of the field when Luke Keary was at the club, but now he's on the left side, with impressive five-eighth Hugo Savala on the right.
