Jorgensen switched rugby codes to join the Eastern Suburbs in 1995 where he played on the Wing position.
[2] Jorgensen played with the Roosters for a further season, representing City Origin in 1996, before signing with the Penrith Panthers.
In 2000, Jorgensen was eligible to play for Russia in the World Cup but withdrew because the tournament clashed with his wedding.
It was during this time that he attracted notice for doing the "aeroplane", a post-try celebration where he would pretend to be a plane, with his arms representing wings.
In June 2007, Jorgensen returned to Australia with his wife and two young sons and resumed work as a stockbroker.
