George Williams has been granted an immediate release from the Canberra Raiders. After a period of uncertainty over his future and requests to depart at the end of the season, a deal was agreed on Tuesday that he wouldn't represent the club again.

Raiders CEO Don Furner said the decision to release Williams now was in the best interests for all parties."George and his partner have asked on a number of occasions for a release to return to England to be closer to their families and we’ve decided to grant their request," Furner said in a statement release by the Raiders.

"George withdrew from training today and from the game this weekend which highlighted to the Club the seriousness of George’s request. "Over the past several weeks we have supported George and provided him with the best welfare support we could, however as a club we felt that his position at the club moving forward became untenable."

More to come ...

Wow that is a real shake up West Tigers rumour. I like it.

Dufty is such a hot and cold player, has been average his entire career.

People just see a highlight video of him running the field with speed and think suddenly he's our savior, ignoring the fact pretty much outside of speed the rest of his game is average. We have way too many average footballers in this side as is.

He wouldn't come to play wing and he is NO upgrade on Laurie (who has only played a handful of first grade games and IMO is already just as good as Dufty).

If the dragons have been trying to move you on for multiple years then you're not a top grade fullback.

Nofo has been living off that one try a few years back too.

Flannagan junior is not a patch on Brooks and his father as coach - nup. Works at Penrith because Nathan is a special player.

Oh that is some serious fantasy/fairytale nonsense about Shane and Kyle to the WTs. Their manager can only hope.

That Williams decision is a mystery. Who's going to replace him? Where is he going to play for Wigan? And how can they afford him without letting a player go?

So maybe we are getting Hastings sooner than we thought. My turn for fantasy: Mbye is going to Canberra!

Good Question
 
Raiders have just announced that they have released George Williams from his contract with the club which will allow him and his partner to return to England…Could be the start of some movement of players.
