http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sp ... s-job.html WIGAN have beaten Warrington to George Williams. The 16-year-old is the hottest talent in Lancashire and has been signed on a three-year lucrative contract. The England and Lancashire schoolboy half-back spent Monday at Warrington with his father and left very impressed. But Wigan then pulled out all the stops. Williams had a had a two-hour training session with the first-team and was placed with internationals Sam Tomkins and Thomas Leuluai who will mentor him. His father Peter is the Wigan club's Under-18 coach but he left the decision entirely to his son http://wigan.rlfans.com/fusion_pages/in ... ge_id=1544 Apologies if this has been posted (and for the fact its Nosey parkers work)

It is indeed.
Expect it to be backed up with signing of his stand off partner Ryan Hampshire which I think may be announced soon.

It would be a great move for Wigan to have the England half U16 pair playing for them.

I think Lewis Tierney was also due to sign, another top prospect.

Good to see the club look to the future. This article confirms what many of us have said would happen. http://www.nrl.com/super-league-losing- ... fault.aspx Josh Perry out for rest of season. Not one of Saints' best buys.
