Hilarious moment Broncos prop Ryan James is caught on camera politely backing out of the dressing room to let one go away from his teammates
Access to the sanctuary of the dressing room can conjure slightly embarrassing moments for a broadcaster, as Fox Sports found out during the Sydney Roosters’ win against the Brisbane Broncos on Friday.
As it’s customary for NRL broadcasters, Fox League’s cameras were in place to give viewers an insight of the sheds of both teams before kick-off and at half-time.
However, the broadcaster may have got more than it bargained for as it appeared to catch Broncos prop Ryan James passing wind just before the teams walked back onto the field for the second half.

As an eagle-eyed Twitter user noted, James was standing in line with his teammates as half-time came to an end, before stepping aside and suspiciously waving a hand behind his back.
Footage showed other Brisbane players smirking towards the 30-year-old, whose body language belied a man caught red-handed.
Unfortunately for the Broncos, the second half against the Roosters was no laughing matter as they coughed up a 10-0 lead to lose their third game in a row.

Joseph Manu bagged a second half brace and Sam Walkericed the game with a crucial conversion from the touchline before then setting up a try to Sitili Tupouniua which proved decisive as the Tricolours won a thrilling contest 24-20 at Suncorp Stadium.
The defeat left the Broncos 11th on the ladder, but Brisbane coach Kevin Walters felt his team were unlucky to come away with nothing.
‘Thought we probably deserved to win tonight to be honest but rugby league doesn’t always give you what you deserve,’ Walters said after the game.
‘If we provide that character every week we’re going to be a good footy side.’
