| Can't see him going anywhere else....I'm sure he would like the challenge of helping Warrington win their 1st ever grand final, if it doesn't happen this season. Although you're not really short of quality half backs.

| we will have something cunning lined up.
we dont do salary cap breaches.
at the end of the day, we can offer a nice juicy 4 year contract on more than anyone else can.
People be hating on that, but its just how it is.

The only other scenario I can possibly think is that Greg Inglis who from day one for me hasn’t had his heart here ( because of the COVID situation) possibly will leave straight away along with another player who’s been told his contract won’t be renewed. This possibly will leave enough cap space for this year with his money being made up over the next 3 years.'"
The salary cap doesn't work like that you can't just get rid of a player and their salary just disappears off the cap. If Inglis just left now his Salary remains on the cap until the end of the year, the only way to free up cap space now is if another team signs them immediately in which case their wage on the cap would transfer to them.

GW has a 3 year deal done at Wire. I didn’t say 3.5.

| I was told we might not announce it this week as that would take Warrington to 7 players in the England team for Friday. Apparently each team can only give up a maximum of 6.

| I thought Wane said no more than 3 from each team? We're gonna be low on troops for Thursday's game against Leigh. I know he's announced 6 but surely he will give the final 17 by Tuesday/Wednesday so players know what match they're playing in.

Thanks for the information. I’ll admit I’m not sure how it works. I know the rules will of changed over the years, I just remember when we let Chris Hicks go in favour of Joel Monaghan ( turned out not as bad as it seemed at the time) by conveniently buying out his contract. To be honest not sure wether the salary cap was in force then.

| The salary cap has been in for in one way or another since about 1997/8. Maybe a little later.
I dont think it came in at start if superleague.
One thing that made me smile on redvee, someone got wind of our losses this year and was questioning out salary cap as its based against income. That stopped being a thing more than 10 years ago.
Talk about grasping at straws

I read that he will reduce the squad to 19 sometime during the week, but I don't know when. I assume that there will be a training session early this week, so after that.
In the past there have been limits placed on the numbers from each club but I've not seen a figure for this game. I'm not sure whether any of our 'exciles' would be in contention (I can't remember who's coaching them).

| Pretty sure that the GB team was made up of almost total Wigan players in the late 80s.

I'd say it was completely different it's not like we signed Powell from from a 3rd party club and lent him to Cas whilst Price sees out his contract

There is also this that makes me think is he really signing for us. I mean if it’s a case of us needing to move someone on (Austin) maybe he just does not want to and is sticking to his current contract. What ever the issue is my guess is it needs sorting sooner than later or it could just end up a reversal and he does go back to Wigan, he could go there now and be playing in 3 weeks time.

It’s not a halfback Wigan need right now, but a couple of props wouldn’t hurt them.

| Could Williams be signing for Catalan Dragons? Salary cap available after Israel Falau goes missing, plenty of ex Wigan mates in the team? Just a thought...

Think they would be in same boat as Warrington.
They certainly would want him but already have 2 marquee signings in Tompkins and Maloney. As previously mentioned I see Leeds Rhinos as dark horses.

Hopefully an announcement will be made soon, especially with Williams being left out of the England squad with Wane going on record as saying he should look into finding a club ASAP to get some game time under his belt.
Sorry if this is old news, or not the most reliable source, as this article has a very telling statement indicating that Widdop may be released with immediate effect to accommodate Williams.
[iFormer St. George Irawara Captain Gareth Widop was able to leave Warrington to make room for Williams. The Widdop family still lives in Wollongong, and the Raiders and Warriors have signed a 5/8 deal in recent weeks.[/i
