Radley wants origin eligibility rules changed

NRL

Victor Radley wants the State of Origin eligibility rules changed, but emphasised he has no regrets over defecting to England for the World Cup.

Sydney-raised Radley stunned the rugby league world this year when he pledged his allegiance to the birth country of his father, Nigel.

Radley was selected in the Blues squad for game two this year but no longer qualifies to play Origin because England is a tier one nation.

Asked if he'd like to see the rule scrapped, which would open the door for the 24-year-old to make his NSW debut, Radley said "yes", but he added he wouldn't worry if it wasn't.

I knew what I was doing and if that changes happy days but if it doesn't, I'm going to get on with it.

Radley revealed he was flooded with nerves when boarding his flight from Australia to England, but said it now felt like home.

I'm really lucky to have a lot of friends and family here. Everyone's been reaching out and making sure I'm okay and invited me to come here or there. It feels like home, it really does.

— Victor Radley
