NSW Origin star’s crude changeroom gesture caught on camera
The NSW Blues were celebrating their huge game two win over Queensland in the changerooms but one player took things a bit too far.
Victor Radley just couldn’t help himself.
NSW were all smiles after thrashing Queensland 44-12 in a dominant performance in State of Origin II to level the series and set up a decider in Brisbane.
The Blues continued their strong form in Perth as they ran away with a 32-point win — the Blues’ equal fourth biggest winning margin in Origin’s 42-year history.

Spirits were high in the NSW dressing room after the game as the Blues celebrated the huge win.
But one man couldn’t resist being a little mischievous, as the Channel 9 panel analysed the game and discussed which players would be available to play for their NRL clubs this weekend in Round 16.
The TV coverage showed Roosters teammates Radley and Joseph Suaalii, who travelled to Perth as part of NSW’s 23-man squad but weren’t named in the final 17, having a laugh in the sheds.
Taking the mickey out of Suaalii while he was on live TV, Blues five-eighth Jarome Luai put his hand around the young gun’s neck and pretended to strangle him.
Then the camera panned out and Radley could be seen performing a crude gesture around Suaalii’s crotch.
The TV coverage quickly cut away and returned to Channel 9’s post-game panel, who had a chuckle at Radley’s antics.
Elsewhere in the NSW changeroom, Jake Trbojevic was rewarded for his superb game when captain James Tedesco handed him a can of beer and the forward skolled it in a matter of seconds.
Trbojevic was left out of NSW’s team for game one but he was recalled by coach Brad Fittler and showed what the Blues were missing as he set the tone with a sensational tackling performance.
The State of Origin series decider will be held at Brisbane’s Suncorp Stadium on Wednesday July 14.
