Mysterious new signing takes to the Warrington field – is it George Williams?

George Williams’ long-running transfer saga appears to be over.

The English halfback looks to have been mysteriously snapped on the field at the Halliwell Jones Stadium – or else it is a very convincing lookalike.

The 26-year-old played 32 times for the Canberra Raiders over a season-and-a-half, but homesickness prompted a return to the UK, sending the rumour mill into overdrive.

But, has he been snapped here?

Hope he flops as a wigan fan.

As a rugby fan good luck.

The most painful days are yet to come. Given the relative strengths of our squads I don't expect we'll get to enjoy George losing to the Warriors for some time. I hope I can still enjoy our young forwards giving him plenty of stick though.

Not happy with George joining wolves but can’t say I blame him.
Our club seems in abit of disarray at the moment.
Who would want a part of it

Announced
The 26-year-old has been training on his own since leaving the Raiders to stay in shape, but having not played for six weeks means he is unlikely to make his bow in Warrington's Super League clash with Hull Kingston Rovers this Sunday.

Instead, Williams' debut is likely to come away to Leigh Centurions on July 22 or possibly even the following week when the Wolves welcome Wigan to the Halliwell Jones Stadium.

"First of all, I'll be really excited to play for Warrington," Williams said about the prospect of playing his first Wolves game against his old club. "That will be huge for me, to represent this club.

Can shove the new challenge up his backside :lol:

Wigan gave him his shot, showed how much they valued him by making him a marquee then let him go to the NRL with a potential safety net.

I hope he is never made welcome back at the club again, he could have been a wigan great.

He's a good player, but surely not in that category.
