Josh Dugan and Tyson Frizell hurt ahead of Origin 3

Laurie Daley faces a nervous wait with NSW Blues pair Tyson Frizell and Josh Dugan both injured in the Dragons 20-10 loss to the Titans on Friday.

Frizell was forced from the field with an aggravation to his existing rib injury early in the second half.

Dugan was soon on the bench with him after suffering an injury to his knee. Both were certain to be named in Daley's side for the Origin decider but are now under an injury cloud with game three just 12 days away.

Both Frizell and Dugan were certain to be named in the NSW squad set to be announced on Monday but are now under an injury cloud with game three just 12 days away.

They aren't the only NSW players under an injury cloud either, with captain Boyd Cordner and fullback James Tedesco set to be named but still unsure whether they will be fit to play.
