Not seen it mentioned on here, but Williams was sat with Fitzpatrick at the England game. You would think that’s a good sign.

I wonder if he can’t play this season is he allowed to train with us?

But how does that work? His cap value remains as he has played already this season.

Maybe there’s something in the fact this is a medical retirement?

That surely, for one reason or the other, isn't the case.

There seems little reason for Warrington to cancel the contract otherwise. We must have found a way around the cap issue.

I think you will find he is doing more than training with us.

Maybe the club have sought some advice from our nearest & dearest up the A49.

Internal auditing role for our salary cap? I hope he’s good at typing reports to send to RFL.

I assumed the release of Inglis was to allow the insurance payout, rather than fund his salary ourselves. We’ve never broken the cap, and I doubt we’d do it so blatantly. We seem to be the darlings of the RFL on cap issues.
