Tough road ahead for Walker

The Joey Manu-Luke Keary halfback combination looks here to stay for the Roosters - and that's bad news for talented youngster Sam Walker.Roosters coach Trent Robinson created something of a storm when he dropped Walker for the Anzac Day clash with the Dragons, moving the versatile Manu into the halves.But the Roosters have won back-to-back games with the pair in the playmaking roles and their styles seem to complement each other well.Keary is all about lovely hands and a smart kicking game, while Manu is a powerhouse ball runner and rugged defender.Walker will doubtless get another chance down the track - but he may have to be patient judging by how well Keary and Manu went in the 14-0 shutout of the Warriors yesterday.
