Big Willie Talau certainly has an eye for a scandal doesn't he, the man would clean up as a freelance journo!
He plays for arguably the most controversial side in Australia, living with salary cap blowouts then decides to visit England. Champion side St Helens looks a good place to play, so off he goes.
During his first full season Saints haven't been out of the news for a moment. On the pitch the side dumps New Zealand, Leeds and Hull out of the Cup and the garden looks rosy. THEN the club implodes with a mass brawl in the match against Wigan, fields a reserve side against the World Champions and gets panned for both by the press. THEN two of Saints brightest stars are the subject of an almighty 3 page colour piece of sensationalist journalism in a national newspaper, claiming they bet on their own team to LOSE to Bradford by a cricket score.
Willie may be a nice bloke, but his nose for trouble is second to none!
