In a prank that took an unexpected turn, former NRL star Aaron Woods recently gained entry to the luxurious beachside unit of Cronulla Sharks player Toby Rudolf, only to discover him engaged in a nude yoga session. Woods, now a presenter for radio network Triple M, was provided with a key by Rudolf's teammate Blayke Brailey and proceeded to the apartment with a camera crew in tow, aiming to surprise the Sharks forward.
The Unanticipated Discovery
Woods had speculated about what he might encounter, stating, "We don't know what he's up to, if he's awake, if he's asleep or whatnot, if he's got clothes, no clothes." Upon entering, he was immediately struck by an unusual odor, remarking, "Oh jeez, the smell hits you, it's a big waft." The situation quickly escalated when Woods caught sight of Rudolf in the living room, completely naked and stretching.
A Nude Encounter
"Hey big dog, he's nude," Woods declared, laughing as he asked Rudolf, "What are you doing? He's watching some yoga, he's stretching. How you going big dog?" Rudolf, seemingly unembarrassed, leaned in for a hug while still nude, prompting Woods to inquire, "Is this how you get yourself ready for the morning?" Rudolf calmly replied, "This is one way, this is part of the process," before questioning Woods' presence in his home.
Woods explained that Brailey had provided the keys, adding, "I didn't know you would be stretching nude." Rudolf fired back with humor, saying, "I didn't know you would be in my house." The exchange continued light-heartedly, with Woods noting Rudolf's yoga pose as "downward dog running style," to which Rudolf responded, "I was about to be."
Rudolf's Future Aspirations
This intrusion comes amid reports that Rudolf is interested in becoming the inaugural signing for the new NRL franchise in Papua New Guinea. He expressed enthusiasm for the potential move, citing the beautiful waves and coastline of Vanimo in PNG, as well as the welcoming nature of the local people. Rudolf also highlighted the appeal of living in a compound with teammates, joking about his persistent attempts to socialize, saying, "In PNG, you're in a compound with everyone, there is no escape from me, it's my dream."
He added, "Don't get me wrong, you'd probably get over it at some point in time, but what an experience to live in Papua New Guinea, would be f***ing wild." This candid revelation underscores Rudolf's adventurous spirit and openness to new opportunities, both on and off the field.
