Brad Fittler has criticized Sydney Roosters prop Terrell May following a Twitch stream where May questioned his loyalty to New South Wales and the Blues camp's integrity.
As State of Origin selection approaches for Game I, May's comments sparked backlash, with Fittler calling them "pathetic" and urging him to respect the jersey and its fans.
During the stream, May suggested that fans should "chuck the Blues jersey in the bin" and jokingly contemplated switching allegiance to Queensland.
Additionally, he hinted at internal leaks within the Blues' setup, suggesting some members shared sensitive information with the media.
Fittler, appearing on Nine, drew parallels between May's remarks and those of Haumole Olakau'atu, who made similar comments in 2022 but later expressed regret.
As May remains a contender for a bench spot in Laurie Daley's Origin side due to injuries to Jacob Saifiti and Jake Trbojevic, Fittler's response highlights the importance of player commitment to the team.
