Melbourne Storm youngster Curtis Scott is facing up to three months on the sidelines after scans confirmed a fracture in his foot.

The 21-year-old hurt his foot in the second half of Melbourne’s 64-10 NRL thrashing of Parramatta at Suncorp Stadium on Saturday.

In better news, Newcastle pair Connor Watson and Edrick Lee are a chance to play against St George Illawarra in Mudgee after encouraging scan results on their foot injuries.
