They'll be in SL next season.
If Roosters sign him for any length of time it will become a nightmare, boxing 'fights' and, off season internationals and contracts like like japan ru one will see him burnt out in 3 season.
But the revenue and media attention will be massive.

This season they had $100 season passes and that hasn't worked, SBW might be the answer.

They're a fickle bunch, couple of big games coming up but they could get they're lowest average attendance since 2002.

| The Roosters are a strange bunch. When I lived in Rose Bay everyone I met was a fan, and I mean everyone. Yet virtually no one actually went to watch them. My landlady's son used to knock about in an Easts vest but would ask me for their results.

| Not just Rooster's fan's.
I tried to talk a mate into buying a sfs/Leichhardt season pass for West Tigers but he wouldn't because of the angle of the sun!

The year we won the premiership en all.
Everyone came out of the woodwork for the finals series. Funny how they weren't Season Ticket Holders.

Will be great to see him back in RL, shame its not in the superleague though. Not a bad deal for the bloke.
'Williams' regret may be somewhat allayed by the possibility that, with the largest-ever contract awarded to a foreign player in Japan and the $800,000 he is expected to command in his first season in the NRL, he will become the first Australasian rugby player in either code to earn $2 million in a year.'

| Quote ="gutterfax"The best RU sides in the world according to the IRB are NZ, 'stralia, South Africa, France and England....SBW has not "performed" whilst playing against the teams ranked 2-5......he is a one trick pony who cost his S15 team a win at the weekend....his defence is suspect and he has no tactical kicking game to speak of.....when it came to the RWC Final, the "show pony" was left in the stable....he is a liability and this years championship would have shown it.
RU legends, like RL legends are the guys who do it on any pitch, for any club/country, against anyone every week over a lengthy period of time.....SBW doesn't stay anywhere long enough for that to happen.
...unlike the abuse that was reserved for 2 youngsters who walked away from RL at the end of their contracts to play another code in Australia, I can't believe anyone, especially RL fans who bang on about a century of dirty tricks by Union and vichy governments are prepared to forget and forgive this w^nker......he walked out on his team and his code mid contract and he did it for 1 reason.......and testing himself in Union wasn't it!'"
Can't believe I am agreeing with you GF,this must be a first.
He let the game down badly when he went to the dark side,stuff him I say.

What's your take on $BW jd?
To me, he walked out on his mates for money....nothing more, nothing less. I agree, he'll sell tickets for the Roosters to start with, but surely the dogs are entitled to some form of recompense before he's allowed play again.
He's slime...he's done it once and he will do it again if the right offer comes along.....IMO that is.

Kinda sanguine tbh...its a professional sport, players go where the cash is. Iv never understood the ostracisation and bias from union just because some may want to play a different sport and I dont like to see it coming into Rugby League...we're better than that.....least, we used to be..not sure anymore after reading some of the stupid on here tonight.
I thought the Dogs recieved a fee...didnt his agent (who is a dick imho) pay up his contract following a court judgement?? Apologies if wrong. Edit: I was wrong, cheers Sheldon.
Quote He's slime...he's done it once and he will do it again if the right offer comes along.....IMO that is.'"
Aye prolly..and the Roosters know that and are still willing to sign him..and sell ticks and merch.
Fair exchange and all that.....doesnt mean the fans or players have to like it...its gonna be fun watching
