He's on $700k a year. There's no way we can afford him. He'll be back in the NRL next year.

Unless he can’t get a deal next year, maybe Parra subsidise his contract next year and we take up his contract fully in 2027 when his demands are lower (if he can’t get a deal in the NRL he’ll have to lower his demands).

Wow $700k, equates to £341k that's a big salary. He would have to be very special for that kind of money. Must be a salary cap issue sending him over here (not read the press) as he is reported to be on Parramattas rosta for 2026.


I do hope Holroyd gets a good run, he is a talent. 


Personally I thought Irwin looked poor at Cas due to the players around him and he looked a bit bigger than the last time we saw him. Once next season rolls around he will be a good size and be able take some hits, or he could be like Gregory and/or Edwards who were masters at not getting whilst being brilliant.

fancy making that noise when the deal wasn't even done.... Marvellous.

What noise was this?  Williams just answered some questions put to him about him not being here next season.  Same for Sam.  It was the RL media that were doing all the noise making.

Perhaps both could have answered "I'm not discussing speculation and rumours, I am currently contracted to Warrington and my focus is on delivering for the team". 

But I think you are wrong about Sam. As soon as Brad Arthur tipped his hat into the ring for Perth, Sam couldn't wait to get his name out there too.

Tomato Tomatoe

There was no hope at all of Williams escaping criticism on this one. No comment or telling it as it was at the time ... he was going to get stick. 

I'm just happy we're keeping him to be honest, couldn't care less what people say, he's class and has been since we signed him.
A crap forward pack and weak inconsistant team have made his job much harder than it should be. We're not a one man team but people seem to think he should be working miricles and winning our games single handedly.
He's been completely up front about everything, glad he's staying, if we can keep Vaughan, with Byrne and a fitter  TPJ coming in we're much stronger next year.
I wonder if Dan Okoro will be in and around the team next year? Cas have ended his loan spell and he's being loaned out to London for the rest of the year apparently?
