SHOULD SONNY B WILLIAM (Bulldogs NRL) JOIN THE ALL BLACK?

Question

I think he should stay with the Bulldogs until his contract end

Answer 1

when u say all blacks do u mean the test side or the union team??

Answer 2

Shoulder charges r not aloud in rugby union which is g*y so he should stay in league but he could get 5x more money and leave like all our other good players because of the NRL f-wits that make these ridicules salary cap rules.

How r the NRL supposed 2 make money when allot of good players ain't even playing in the NRL. It seems like we r goin bak wards surley some thing has 2 be done 2 stop our best players leaving

Answer 3

Let him go! We don't need him in Australia! (poor kiwis)

Answer 4

as much as i luv sonny lol i don't think he shld join all blacks, i don't think hes good enough...sry

Answer 5

most over rated player along with benji marshall

so i dont really care

Answer 6

No, he should be playing State of Origin for NSW as he played his first senior games in Sydney and he played for NSW under 19's.

Answer 7

I think no he would just get injured like in the nrl and what team would he play for what position would he play

Answer 8

He shouldn't because all he can do is shoulder charge people and that's illegal in union.

Answer 9

i dont think the the bulldogs will release him earlier in  his contract.maybe after his four year contract with the bulldogs.if he did join the all black then good luck with him.he will be a good addition to any super 14 team from nz.then maybe that will lead him to wear the all black jersey.to become a dual international for nz.

Answer 10

Depends on what position they want him for. Usually the only successful transitions are in the backline. Brad Thorne is an exception, but that was because he was on the NZ schoolboy Rugby team - I think Ray Price is the only other forward to make a successful transition having been an Australian Rugby Union player, then to league. But both have been from Union to league - not League to Union.

The only position similar in the forwards is maybe lock - more so in Ray's day when there was no lifting in the lineout though - if you do not expect your lock to be at the breakdown. Forwards in Union - tackling is more grabbing your opponent and trying to turn them facing your line - and the rest of the forward pack then has to come over the top and "clean out" essentially the role of the forwards is "tackle, clean out, tackle, clean out" and generally the forward attacking move is "ball in hand, up the middle, wait for clean out" Props and hookers vastly, vastly different. Lineouts etc - Forward swapping very hard

The only way I can see him being successful in a transition is if they play him at outside center, or maybe break away (so no scrummaging skill required - (but would have to learn how to pilfer at the break down and how to properly ruck and maul - ala George Smith. Phil waugh) - So probably an outside center would be about it.

Answer 11

YES I THINK DUNNY BILL WILLIAMS SHOULD GO

Answer 12

i think that he should cause the all blacks rule and so do you don't  forget that and go sonny bill williams and go the all blacks woooooooooooooooooooooo*

Answer 13

not only should he play union, but he should play state of origin, gain an australian citizenship , become a buddist, play soccer, knit a cardi, marry an african born asian raised lass, play the tuba and find himself!!! no doubt he has bucket loads of talent the boy's a follower, would never make a good kiwi captain anyway,

Answer 14

nah bro, the morjority of his hits are with his shoulder which its illegal to takle without ur arms in rugby so he'll be all ****.

Answer 15

he wont leave.. its 4 publicity

Answer 16

Let him go

What harm is there?

It would do Sonny a world of good.

Bulldogz r already in negotion with a Melbourne player to join the bulldogz. If Sonny goes, there will b more space under the salary cap for the bulldogz to buy anyone they want.

Answer 17

If he goes to the all blacks the only thing he will learn is how to cry like a baby and lose

Answer 18

It doenst make a difference.  NZ Rugby depths of players is alot more than Rugby League.  His impact wont be that great as her really doesnt offer much difference to most guys running around.  he's known for shoulder charges which dont happen in Union.  He'd play Blind Side, Lock or Number 8 as he may be a bit to slow for 2nd or Centre.  Come on he'd have to play for Jerry or Rodneys spots in the AB's, realistically he is not skilled enough at this point for the changes and speed.  Unlike League you can't take a rest in the backround after you've done 1 hit up, it is a constant running game (and stopping for line outs/scrums) but technically it is alot more complicated than League.  He'd have to prove himself at Super Rugby level first.  Only a few converts have ever really been any good (Tuiqiri, Rogers, J Robinson and a few more).  So good luck if he wants to head towards a mans game, But we dont rest after 1 run or hide in the backrounds like league.  Just to add, The bulldogs dont need to release himas if he switches codes they have limited options as his current contract is in line with Rugby League.  He can walk into Rugby when ever he wants.

Answer 19

is he good enough to play for the all blacks?
