Not a chance

Re: Gareth Widdop Bound for Super League : Mon Apr 13, 2015 9:52 am  

can't see it happening, he is on a reported £285,000 a year ($550,000 AUD), would need a the Marquee rule passing in June or it's 15% of a teams salary cap on 1 player

His stock seems to have gone up at SGI. If he wants a move he could probably get more at another NRL club.

Like others have said, there would need to be a change in the rules for it to even be possible and even then it is unlikely.

He would be ideal as our fullback.
