The Mole: Dragons warn Jaydn Su'A not to be 'baited' by Souths' Cody Walker
Dragons officials have warned hitman Jaydn Su'A not to be 'baited' by Souths star Cody Walker in tomorrow night's clash at Accor Stadium.
The fiery Su'A has already spent time in the sin bin twice in the opening four rounds and also engaged in a running battle with Walker in the Charity Shield last month.

"Walker loves to push the boundaries and the two have history," a Dragons source told Wide World of Sports.
"We can't afford for him to get to Jaydn and make him lose his cool. We've spoken to him this week about not responding to any sledges or niggles."

Surprisingly, Walker went in to bat for Sua in the media this week - perhaps setting the scene for another spicy encounter.
"We're both that type of player that we like to play aggressive," Walker told The Sydney Morning Herald.

"He loves to put shots on and I don't like to be on the end of shots. We had a bit of a laugh after the (Charity Shield) game. That's where it all stays, I suppose.
"I think he has been a little bit unlucky with the way he tackles. Sometimes it does slide up and it gets him in a little bit of trouble. I thought the one [against the Sharks] was a little bit harsh."
