Widdop is Returning to NRL

[Willow]

Nope Wollongong

Sorry, if it's not in Blakehurst the story lacks street cred.

Didn't we have first rights to him if he wanted to return? swear this was a condition on our release

 

[slippery5]

Respectfully disagree with any thoughts of a Widdop return. Feel that chapter is finished and happy to go in a new direction..

Agree, amazing how people forget how getting players past their peak is how we are in this mess today.

Nope Wollongong

Thirroul to be precise.

Widdop is pure class but he's getting on a bit now and seems to pick up one to many injuries now.

Thankfully this is our last year of Norman.

We did...we tried to do a swap deal involving Norman...Warrington not interested.

 

[blacksafake]

He was very good for us but I think we need to go in another direction.

The West’s Tigers player ? He was worth his weight in gold - a tremendous defensive player .

just his master plan to get away from mary.

just his master plan to get away from mary.

What is needed is a younger clone of Widdop.

 

[Crush]

Broke his contract to go home, was released on compassionate grounds.
Now he is coming back to sign with a rival club.
Never liked Widdop.

Bird will eventually replace Widdop. Younger but injury prone similar to Widdop. We have some young halves coming through and they will eventually be our future halves.
