Melbourne Storm coach Craig Bellamy says it’s up to Cameron Smith to tell his side of the story following paralysed Knight Alex McKinnon’s television interview.

Smith led Queensland to a stunning 52-6 victory on Wednesday night to claim this year’s State of Origin series days after being slammed by McKinnon for his reaction to the tackle during a 2014 NRL game which left him in a wheelchair.

“I know it was a pretty tough couple of days for him and his family,” Bellamy said of Smith on Thursday.

“One thing I will say is that Cameron Smith is one of the most decent human beings I’ve ever been involved with.

“I think he will be relieved the week’s nearly over.”

Bellamy didn’t want to discuss whether Smith and the Storm did enough to contact McKinnon, saying it was up to his captain to talk about it.
