| Whilst I've always had George down as a decent half with an array of 'tricks', short kicks, picking a pass and as a running threat, I genuinely underestimated how good he is/can be when at the top of his game.
Biggest surprise for me though is his work in the defensive line, he's not shy and definitely not a prima donna.

| He is the heartbeat of our side and has matured into a very good player. A constant threat with the ball and defensively tough.

| He's a privilege to watch. In every game he does 3 or 4 things where you find yourself asking 'how did he do that?' and he is the antidote to the idea there are no 'off the cuff' players any more: he will always play what he sees rather than following a set pattern.

| I think George will only be fully appreciated when he delivers your Holy Grail of a Grand Final win. And it could happen.

| The jinking run through the Saints edge defence and then offload to Ashton was just incredible.
The passes for both of Kings tries were spot on the money, and then there's the drop goal.
Yes - he's special..

| If we are going to start a thread with a player's name as the thread title, can we also please include "[iis not injured, just an appreciation thread[/i" in parentheses next to it?
I clicked on it feeling rather apprehensive.

| He’s a special player and for me the best in the league. I wouldn’t swap him for anyone else in SL. We are very lucky to have him.

| he is a quality player...IF he helps us get back to a GF and IF he helps us win it.... then he enters Legend territory.
He has a great all-round skill set and a great rugby brain. Natural athlete. He isn't the finished article though... still think he can improve, especially his kicking game both long and short.

Yes, two more wins in 2024 and he fades into the distant past as a player.

As much as I fondly look back on years of watching Briers and what he did for us in the Smith era, I think any honest and sensible Warrington fan would realise that Williams is a far better all-round player and the consummate professional. I hope he will be at the heart of the next famous era for the club.

| Don’t know what he earns but he is worth twice as much.
Don’t tell Karl though

| I don't know what he earns either, but it's assumed by many that he's the highest paid player in Super League, which is how we managed to get him in the first place. That may well be true, but I have no idea. However, there was also a lot of grumblings about dressing room disharmony, which probably wouldn't be helped by wage disparity, and Williams himself was on the receiving end of the "waste of money" shouts from plenty of our fans as well as opposition fans.
Sam Burgess has worked absolute magic at making all that go away!
