BLAKE Ferguson and Josh Dugan were still so drunk the day after an alcohol-fuelled bender during NSW Blues camp before Origin II team staff hid them from the media, Ray Hadley has revealed.

Speaking on his 2GB radio morning show today Hadley shed more light on the Blues camps being in utter chaos during the series.

Hadley revealed a journalist’s car was vandalised at the team’s Kingscliff hotel during the camp before game one.

The 2GB broadcaster also stated Ferguson and Dugan went out on the drink after being named in the team for game two on Monday June 12, with neither player showing up for media commitments the next day.

Hadley added that team officials went as far as hiding Dugan and Ferguson from the media on the Tuesday.

Hadley’s revelations follow today’s story in the Daily Telegraph about another incident involving Dugan and Ferguson which took place during the third Origin camp where the pair spent eight hours drinking at Lennox Point Hotel on the Friday before the Origin decider.

“What players do on a day off is up to them but I wouldn’t think it is very responsible going to a pub and getting on the drink,” Hadley said of the incident before game two.

“Reports I get [say] either one or the two were so affected by alcohol the next day the team management — instead of sanctioning the players — actually hid them from view.

“(NSW Rugby League CEO) Dave Trodden is today saying he heard rumours but they weren’t rumours — everyone knows they were on the drink and hidden from media the next day.”

Hadley also revealed a journalist covering the Blues’ Origin preparations before game one had their car vandalised and players believed someone within the NSW camp was responsible.

“A journalist’s car was vandalised and graffitied in the lead up to the game. His name and other names were written on the car in quite a derogatory manner,” Hadley claimed.

“Players were speculating they knew who did it because someone was arcing up about the aforementioned journalist and that they ‘needed to be dealt with’.

“We’ll never know though because there was no CCTV in the car park.”

News of Dugan and Ferguson’s two benders as well as the vandalism follow reports last week Dave Klemmer was meant to start the decider in place of Andrew Fifita before Fifita blew up at coaching staff who relented and allowed the Sharks prop to begin the match.

Hadley said NSW’s Origin set-up needed to be overhauled from the top down, including a clean-out of players, staff and coaches.

“We can’t have the lunatics running the asylum which is what we have now,” Hadley said.

“Yesterday I said it was time for coach Laurie Daley to go. He’s a nice fella but his time has come.

“They need to install a coach that won’t put up with this nonsense.

“I’m putting my money behind Dean Pay — a tough as teak front rower who played for his state and his country. He wouldn’t be putting up with that kind of nonsense.

“What has to happen if NSW are to have any success against this Queensland team is they need someone like Dean Pay who can take control and say ‘OK you mugs I’m in charge not you. If you want to get on the drink or argue about things then you won’t be in the team.’”

Hadley finished off his spray by calling for NSWRL to dock Dugan and Ferguson their $30,000 match fees for Origin III.

“People like that aren’t entitled to be part of state of origin and they should be shown the door,” Hadley said.
