Quote ="NickyKiss"It’s a sign of his talent that you’d still say he could’ve done more. He’s part of a group of mates who’ve all seemed to agree they’d like to play in the NRL at some point and maybe even together for the same club. That has meant all bar the ultimate competitor in Bateman have had spells of their heads looking elsewhere in their time with Wigan. Fantastic players on their day but heads in the clouds on others. I don’t blame them, as young lads with no kids, having an eye on spells playing in a beautiful country, in the best league in the world and with your mates sounds like a dream come true. It’s probably cost us as a side though as all have been inconsistent, with spells of ups and downs.
Maybe I’m being harsh but that’s how it’s always felt to me. Constant speculation surrounding Williams has done him no favours these last few seasons.'"
When Sam Tomkins left the first time around I was gutted. I’m honestly not bothered that George is leaving as we’ve signed a better player in Hastings (all going well). That tells me everything I need to know about how I feel about it.
George has been good for us and has come in for some unfair treatment from Wigan fans. But he isn’t in the same universe as Tomkins was before he left for the NRL.
