True although I never expected for him to have the impact that he did at Wigan, especially during the 2006 season.

Giving him the kicking duties seemed to change everything, wasn’t he also played at centre initially too? I think most players would have struggled in Millwards Wigan team.

Let’s hope we find some hidden gems in the prop forward department soon.

Yeah fantastic player.

Still think his the best player I've seen kicking the ball from his own in goal area as well as from centre field.

He could win you the ball back with those kicks.

Williams has stated he has hasnt signed anywhere yet but wants a new challenge rather than coming back to Wigan....

Tbh sick of hearing about Williams now

I considered that. I’d hope he’d have the sense to realise virtually any professional sports person will be subject to that irrespective of which club they play for.

People in the know claiming contract with Warrington has been signed for weeks.

Sign for Leigh or Salford then big nose !!!

I suspect being economical with the truth, he hadn’t signed for anyone...for this season.

He can only say he has signed for some one when he has been registered with the RFL if Warrington cant offload any players then as Rubber Duckie says it could be next season when he plays.

I thought Williams stated he wanted to play in the World Cup this year, so surely he would have to play for a club this season, SW already left him out of the friendly due to not playing for a while, so doubt he would be picked having not played any games for the rest of this year.

Correct if Warrington cant offload a player then he will have to sign for another club just for this season. On another note was it Warrington persuading him to come home homesick and signing for them next year but Canberra released him early and put the can among the pigeons.

I haven’t read the 65 pages on the Williams saga but has anyone mentioned the role his agent may have played in the the “messy”exit from Canberra and the situation that George/Warrington now find themselves in ?

Absolutely, It’s not often that Wigan rule themselves out of a signing, I can’t remember when that last happened?

I doubt GW or his agent expected it.

Thank god it's over

Lock the thread!

This is a genuine question.

I’m assuming that Wire have used the cap space from GI to sign him immediately. I thought if you released and paid off a player like that their salary cap value was still counted? I don’t understand how they could fit him in for this year.

I know the cap is live so I’m not implying foul play just hoping someone knows how it works.
