Victor Radley receives fine but can play in NRL Grand Final

Victor Radley of the Sydney Roosters has been cleared to participate in the NRL Grand Final after receiving a $3,000 early plea fine for a Grade 1 dangerous contact charge. The incident occurred during Friday’s preliminary final against the Dolphins, where Radley was reported for a hip-drop tackle on Herbie Farnworth. Despite his history with the MRC, he opted to accept the fine rather than risk a two-match suspension. The Roosters secured their place in the Grand Final following a 36-20 victory over the Dolphins. They await the winner of the match between the Penrith Panthers and Newcastle Knights.
