English club Warrington has issued a strong 'hands off' warning to the two NRL clubs rumoured to be vying to sign veteran playmaker Gareth Widdop. Widdop's young family is based in Australia and the former Dragon was keen to join them several months ago when COVID was at its peak in the UK. Canberra - who have lost fellow Brit George Williams - and the Warriors - whose star youngster Chanel Harris-Tavita is out for the season with a pec injury from last weekend - are believed to be keen to sign Widdop. But Warrington boss Karl Fitzpatrick has declared there is no way they are letting Widdop go - even though they are about to sign Williams from the Raiders. The 32-year-old Widdop's form has been so impressive in recent weeks that he has earned a recall to the England squad.
