Can not sign anywhere until the contract at Raiders was dealt with. It would have been an illegal approch. Which ironically how 99% of signings actually happens in every team sports. Nudge nudge come to us unsettle a player. Oz press is a bunch of hypocrite. As the saying goes they do not like it up them

I only said could be the day as I knew the issues with Canberra were being resolved. Which I was right about 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Props signed elsewhere, as Ive said countless times.

All this hype about wether GW is signing or not is not the be all and end all for me.
We need 2 good props and a 9 a lot more than we need GW. Massive over hype as far as I’m concerned.

Rumour on the other site from a Hull fan about Reynolds to Canberra which could lead to Austin to Hull and Williams to wire don't know how true but it could explain the delay with George not signing yet ?

George cant sign for anyone until he has signed the deal to release him from Canberra.... I said today could be the day (friday) because it was supposed to be all sorted and signed between Williams and Canberra, however that is not the case, they have agreed on release terms just not put pen to paper on it. Thats the delay, he isn't officially a free agent yet.

Nothing has changed from Wigans point of view, they expect him to sign.

I honestly am amazed by all this hype about wether or or not we are signing George Williams. With the current problems we have with the squad, GW will make bugger all difference. We need 2 good big props at least. If not, in my opinion, it will make no bloody difference who the halves are. They can’t do anything behind a pack that can’t punch it’s way out of its own 25. Bo****ks to GW spend the money where it’s needed most .

We do need to strengthen the front row but who is available? For now, GW is available and we should be looking to bring him to Wigan. I'd be interested in Truman but isn't it more likely he would join Powell at Warrington next year?
