THE rugby league State of Origin streaker has been sentenced to three months' jail.

New Zealander Wati Holmwood ran onto the field wearing nothing but joggers during the final minutes of the Origin decider in July.

He pleaded guilty to entering a playing field without authorisation and wilful and obscene exposure in a public place.

Magistrate Christopher Longley on Thursday sentenced him to three months' jail for two good behaviour bond breaches.

He's also been fined $2000 for baring all in front of 83,000 spectators who'd turned out to watch the NSW-Queensland clash.
