Victor Radley: Origin Dream Achieved, Social Media Deleted

Victor Radley is committed to cherishing every moment of his inaugural State of Origin camp. Upon receiving the call from coach Laurie Daley, Radley prioritized informing his family and partner before deleting his social media accounts. This focus meant he was unaware of his Roosters teammate Sam Walker's selection until asked.

Radley aims to "be really present in the moment" during camp, noting the overwhelming media attention at the NSWRL Centre of Excellence. He recalled childhood memories of Origin nights being the highlight of his year. Coach Laurie Daley has given Radley his blessing to play his characteristic aggressive style, a freedom also supported by the Roosters.

Despite a career with numerous charges and sin bins, Radley remains unfazed by any potential Queensland animosity. He reflected on past challenges, including a significant ban, and expressed gratitude for the unwavering support from Roosters coach Trent Robinson. Radley is now focused on the opportunity to represent New South Wales.
