Be very surprised if Wigan don't take George Williams back on his return back to the UK. Although Leeds have a need for a player such as Williams I can't see him signing for Leeds when Wigan lose Hastings at the end of this season so will need a replacement and Williams back at his home town club. I know he'd commented about going stale at Wigan but hes been away from Wigan now so may want the comfort of being back at Wigan.
So unless Leeds are prepared to offer silly money I just can't see Williams going anywhere else but back to Wigan.

Me too, him and Hastings would win Wigan the GF IMO.

Looks like Toby King staying with Warrington on £170k per season.

I'm surprised that Warrington have enough cap space to pay him that amount

Haven’t they off loaded Gelling?

Looks like his agent has done a good job there.

Wouldn’t swap him for Griff or Carlos.

Wow that’s big money for our sport.

I'd have him for Carlos

Carlos has been a great servant and is consistent, just not sure he comes up with that magic moment against the best

Toby King is better for me all round but never worth 170k that's top category money for SL

Don’t get me wrong he’s a good player but for my mind he’s not in the £170K bracket or even near to that, I think his agents had Warrington pants down with that deal.

I'd rather have Carlos, the only think King has in his favour is that he is British.

Griffin v's King is very close, but King will be on nearly twice as much, he agent has done a cracking job, he was never going to go to Rovers, but Rovers will have offered him a massive salary and Warrington will have matched it.

I've just seen Matthew Dufty might be available to come to SL, he would be sensational here, but I suppose we don't really need a FB, unless

Connor doesn't stay (Hopefully won't happen)
We play Connor in the centres and Griffin to the backrow to replace Ma'u (Seems a waste of Connor)
Connor plays 6 and Reynolds goes to hooker

Doesn't look likely to happen, so I really hope he stays in the NRL and not for a SL side.

I'd be surprised if he doesn't stay in the NRL to be honest, though if he is to come to SL then St's could be a possible destination if Coote doesn't sign a new deal with them. If he does come to SL I can't see many clubs being in for him as he won't come cheap.

I agree, think he will stay he in the NRL, think the Dragons are releasing him for off field problems, would have to be a high paid Marquee player here.

He would be close to MOS, a upgrade on Coote and French who both stand out in SL.

Agree Dufty would be a fantastic pick up for any SL side. Similar style of play to Papenhuyzen. I wonder if he played for one of the top teams in the NRL he would be spoken about differently.

On a side note, Fages would be a great pick up for us as a long term 9/half cover. although i can't see him swapping a starting spot at Saints for us.

Dufty has been good for a while now. Phil Gould has alluded that it’s more off field reasons that the Dragons aren’t looking to retain him.

Blatant racism, claiming British heritage is better than others.

I’ve heard Theo is Huddersfield bound, and according to a few Saints posters Coote wants to go home, for family reasons.

With Wigan reportedly losing £100,000 every game they’ve had without supporters, and the financial worries AP has had, and Saints seem to have a few young guns ready to step up.

Possibly only Leeds, Wire, and Huddersfield are able to test the market in these times, not even sure about Leeds financial clout anymore, since their golden years, they’ve hardly broke the bank with signings.

Dufty would terrorise SL defences.
Lightening and a tough little bugger to boot.

How much would he cost Wiz, if Toby is on £170,000, and rovers were in for him, maybe we will see him in East Hull

Too much for us.

I can’t tell if you are actually being serious with that comment. If you are then you really need to give your head a bang!

I don’t know Dave K personally and not speaking for him but even I can see what he means with his post in that King being British does indeed go in his favour as he does not take up a non fed or quota spot!! Got sod all to do with claiming British heritage is better or otherwise.

I'm guessing it was a joke.

I heard a rumour yesterday of Coote back to Australia, and Sam Tomkins to Saints.

Can't see that happening in a million years

Ridiculous amount of money for somebody who just catches crossfield kicks.

Heard the same off my mate who's a WIgan season pass holder
