I think there'll be a call of time (for bed) on Saddened's William's rumour on Thursday.

Nowt do with me. I have no insider knowledge. Just a throwaway comment from a Wigan-supporting friend. To quote him this morning "Wigan have moved past George Williams now and have moved on to other targets like Sezer". If it is true it'll take some sorting out with his Raiders contract, house, Austin's transfer to Leeds etc. Big if though, I'd still put my money on him going back to Wigan.
But Bateman's interview recently was interesting. He was saying he would love him to play for Wigan, but just wants him to be happy. Be an odd thing to say if he knew he was coming back to Wigan.

| Heard Mark Wilson on Talksport earlier saying that he believes that Wigan are 'clearing salary cap space' before bringing Williams in. Warrington have made him an excellent offer for next year and beyond but Williams is prepared to wait for Wigan to make room for him.

| It sounds to me like the deal to bring Williams back to Wigan was done some time ago but is only just coming to light now that the Raiders have outed him.
I reckon the agreement was in place during the off season when Bateman was heading back to Wigan and Wigan have since been clearing the decks to create space for Williams. That has meant they had to let Hastings go and couldn't afford to keep Gildart.
They both may have gone anyway but wigan stood a better chance of keeping them if they didn't have to clear cap space for williams.
Last weeks performance looked like there was trouble at the mill and all ties into the timining of all of the Williams rumours.
Wigan will come through this smelling of roses though, they always do. I remember the Tomkins incident and the Bateman / Mossop incident thinking that their season would fall apart but at Wigan these sort of things just make them stronger in the long run.

| Take that with a pinch of salt, as GW has already tweeted he’s still in Canberra.

| Still can't see him coming here, Wigan can sign him straight away, pay him a Marquee wage from next year onwards and he'll only cost 75k on the cap, and Wigan is where he left to go the NRL.
I know all the reports say it's us or Wigan but i can't see him going anywhere other then Wigan.

I can only see him at Wire.
We’ve got 2 marquee halves that have let let down again. We offer GW £1/2m per season and go with one marquee.
NO MORE AUSSIE MARQUEE PLAYERS.
Pump money into Warrington grassroots.
