Mark Nawaqanitawase says Robert Toia has gone missing since his call-up to the NSW State of Origin side and the debutant winger is planning a chatty reunion at the MCG.
The pair usually star together in the Sydney Roosters' highlight reel and are great mates off the field, but Nawaqanitawase says it's been radio silence from Queensland centre Toia ahead of the second Origin on Wednesday night.
Nawaqanitawase is set to line up on the right-hand side, away from Toia, but intends to seek him out along with fellow Roosters teammate and Maroons halfback Sam Walker.
"Rob hasn't spoken to me all week," the former Wallabies rugby union star told AAP.
"We're best of buds a few days earlier, but as soon as he found out, (I'm playing) he doesn't want to talk to me, so I'm going to make sure I talk to him in the game.
