Emotional England hardman Victor Radley can't wait to sink “about 20 pints” with his family in Sheffield.
The Australian loose forward qualifies for the World Cup hosts given his Yorkshireman dad Nigel hails from the Steel City, moving Down Under in the 1980s. Radley, 24, plays against Greece on Saturday at Sheffield United’s Bramall Lane with his dad and brother Harry having flown in from Sydney on Friday morning. Nigel, a massive Sheffield Wednesday fan, was raised in nearby Hoyland.
And speaking after the Captain’s Run, Sydney Roosters star Radley revealed: "When I first arrived in the UK I stayed here for a few days and we went to the Hare and Hounds in Hoyland for a feed. A lot of people there knew my grandad Derrick and that was really special. I met my grandma once and my grandad a few times but both have passed away.
