Sonny Bill Williams reportedly homesick and lonely in France

[Shorty]

funnily enough, given that he's one of the most talented players in the game, his mistakes/poor decisions will be forgiven very quickly - all NRL clubs would be desperate to have him

I don't give a sh*t if he can score a try with his foot...
He made a mockery of the comp and he'd mock it even more if he was let back in it.

But you're right the NRL would be that pathetic.

If I went to France I'd be hoeing into the french food & wine 24/7.... cassoulet, boef bourginon, coq au vin, beats the f**k out of most Aussie and Kiwi food.

The problem with France along with other Western European countries is that they offer little variety. The local cuisine is great but if you have an inkling for something foreign or even a dish from another city state, you're stuffed. Obviously the major cities are somewhat of an exception.

 

[Pass the Ball]

We all knew he would rue his decision to leave the NRL, but I'll give you the heads up...

- He aint coming back to the NRL any time soon

Great to see him still getting plenty of press in Australia...

Just forget about him...

Why do I have to read about French Rugby in every Australian paper these days...

Enough already...

If an NRL club signs $BW, their profile will get dragged through the mud along with bad media press. I don't think a club would risk such a thing. Plus everybody knows he is after too much money and always gets injured.

 

[TV Ted Ellery]

It is, of course, a beat up. He won't be coming home, although if he did I could imagine every club vying for his signature. Aside from being a dropkick, he remains a very good player.

bullsh*t.

wendell sailor and brad thorn are good examples of players retuning to the open arms of the nrl.

Agreed. Ironically it' probably precisely because Australia and NZ don't have local cuisies worth speaking of that we have such great variety of food avaiable in most places.

 

[Pass the Ball]

Anyone who knows anything, knows that he has already signed with the Roosters for 2010...

 

[joshreading]

Whilst I am torn in some regards. It might be a gain for RL to do so, it is a kick in the guts to players that might be thinking about doing so as well. At least give them poise to think twice.

The reality is that it would have to be done on very careful terms.

 

[Lockyer4President!]

Does every bloody kiwi posting in this thread have a hardon for SBW or something.

 

[Miller was a legend]

Really, they want another Dog reject to be injured all the time. Oh well he would fit in I guess and they could be assured 40mins in a game as well. Yeah ok it does make sense

What, please explain...

Says the one who obviously spurts man-clag all over his keyboard at the very mention of Darren Lockyer...

if he's lonely he may be able to find some chick to root him in the dunny, just dont film it

Is there an Ironman event on in Toulon soon?

Yep - but Sailor was a disgraced washed up 30 something drug user, and they were happy enough to give him another chance.

SBW is a stupid kid who's made some stupid decisions, any NRL club will crawl over broken glass to get him to play for them, and the NRL's angry posturing was just stuipid, and will only seem petty and vindictive if they maintain it

 

[gunnamatta bay]

is he going home to Samoa? after all he obtained a Samoan passport just prior to sneaking out of the country.

he would probably go to super 14 clubs. Probably the Hurricanes Tana's club.

but he left the game on good terms ;-)
