Luke Metcalf may face yet another selection battle after third-choice halfback Te Maire Martin helped the Warriors hand St George Illawarra a 15th-straight loss in the Dragons recruit's absence.
Out-of-favour Metcalf was unavailable for Saturday night's 30-12 win over his future club, having missed training this week to finalise his move.
But a serious knee injury to his usual replacement Tanah Boyd looked to have cleared a path for Metcalf to once again become a starting half from next week.
Things might not be so simple, though, after halfback Martin crossed for two tries and played a hand in two others at Jubilee Stadium, where sections of the crowd booed the Dragons at full-time.
Saints gave up three restarts and a penalty ahead of Martin's first try, with the halfback dummying past Hayden Buchanan to the tryline.
