Agree, but can see him going to Huddersfield or Leeds.

Williams to Warrington for £500k



One year and Warrington then off to the NRL



2 years in the NRL then back to Wigan on a free

Brown to wire 2 year deal, is hope that puts the williams rumours on hold for a while

If you're going to make something up try and make it realistic.

Agreed. It is a shame really as whoever gets him will have one of the biggest hitters in SL and a player capable of becoming both very useful on the pitch and a fans favourite off it.



His carry isn't fantastic, but that would come on in SL, but his defence is unbelievable, very hurtful in every tackle.

Warrington are slowly transforming from "The Bottlers" to "The Pensioners".

Dave Parker reporting in this weeks LW that Souths are targeting Williams for 2018 and beyond and that this is a from a very reliable contact.

Parker and "reliable contact" shouldn't be said in the same year, never mind the same sentence.

I wouldn't be surprised if NRL clubs were showing an interest in Williams. He needs to be careful only to go when he is ready, if he goes too soon he will end up like Burgess.

As in, back at Wigan in two years, having had a year's experience playing in the NRL, living in Australia and getting paid more than he would in SL? Joe Burgess is hardly a cautionary tale against young players trying their hand in the NRL just because he hasn't stayed there. Quite the opposite IMO, it shows they can always come back if it doesn't work out, so they don't really have anything to lose.

I've never read another RL pundit who gives me so much of an impression that he literally makes stuff up.



Either that or he makes a raft of phone-calls each morning, and everyone he contacts has a quiet giggle and then tells him the most unlikely story they can think of.

I'll never begrudge anyone wanting to try to better themselves and a wedge of wonga is always nice, but let's see what sort of player he's returning as before we start laying gold-plated rose petals at his feet (yes, I'm in curmudgeon mode. Bah, humbug).
