They were prepared to give him 3 months off end the season. That's a lot of time.

The raiders giving him his release is what he wanted he just didn't want it immediately.

The problem the Raiders had was if he doesn't want to train and play and wants to go end of the year then they probably saw it as why keep him?

They don't want to pay him if his not contributing and he clearly wanted out so I do see why canberra granted him the release.

Canberra is a weird destination for British players. It's not really the place you would go out of choice in Australia.

No sun, no beach etc etc.

Interesting that one journalist says his been told Williams agent was calling Sydney clubs letting them know he wanted to live in Sydney last year.

Canberra must be fuming. Two transfer fees paid to Wigan and both players gone home.


It was to not train or play this week. Williams never said he was not gonna stop playing all year. Lots of his teammates have shown total support for his situation.

Regarding transfer fees. Canberra didn't want to wait till they were out of contract so I don't really feel sorry for them as that is the premium you have to pay if you want players early. Bateman and Williams both played well for Canberra when they were on the pitch.

Canberra easily got there money's worth even if both left earlier than expected

Transfer fees seem to blow Aussie clubs minds. It’s as though they think they’ve bought the person lock, stock and barrel. They’ve had their value for money not only on the two they’ve paid for but also on the likes of Sutton and Rushton, who they didn’t paid for.
