So according to Jenna Brooks just now Williams is due back in the country on Saturday but as she understands Williams is yet to sign on the dotted line. The other thing is Widdop to Canberra before the end of season.

As much as I want Williams to sign, losing Widdop ends our season. Nothing we can do though, he was always on the way home after COVID hit.

Maybe Austin will have some sort of renaissance and go out with a bang. Can’t see it though.

Everything points that way, will be a shame to see him go as he’s been a step above every other half back in the league this year.

If Widdop is going and the move happening is dependent on him going, would you play him tomorrow? It's a pretty meaningless game in the grand scheme of things.

Just to add, although I was off the blocks to hear Williams to Wire agreed, I’ve heard nothing about Widdop going mid season.

Well, as long as you haven't.

So for half a dozen games Widdop has been great, don't think it really defines our season though, I recall Austin once being fantastic for half a dozen games too - there's no guarantee come Sep/Oct they'll sustain it.

I guess we'll just hope for the best, and maybe Williams and a returning Inglis, and even Price himself, will all have a point to prove come the business end of the season.

You mean you hoped and guessed possibly correctly on Williams and are now hoping Widdop stays?

You ain't the chronicle, you're a taxi driver...

Williams has tweeted recently thank to canberra, the fans and players and that he is on his way back to family. Hopefully get an announcement soon wherever he is going.
