Victor Radley’s fate hangs in the balance as the fallout from the allegedly damning texts he sent Brandon Smith to obtain drugs continues.
Radley, who is on a two-year $750,000 per season contract with the Roosters, allegedly asked Smith to arrange for him to get an “eight ball,” which is drug slang for 3.5 grams of cocaine, while he was on the Sunshine Coast for a Roosters golf trip.
The texts have been reported as being part of the police allegations against Smith, who is charged with supplying a dangerous drug and providing information to a drug dealer which was then used to bet on an NRL match Smith played in.
It has been reported today if bets for Smith to score a try as well as be the first try scorer had materialised on his return from injury it would have netted the gamblers $20
