[QUOTE="Icemn, post: 402666, member: 50355"] [B]NZ latest – SBW likely to stay in union[/B] 23 May 2011 Keo.co.za brings you news from New Zealand’s Super Rugby franchises. [B]SBW likely to stay in union -[/B] Sonny Bill Williams appears close to extending his stay in rugby union if the contract negotiations offer him flexibility. Williams is a keen boxer and insists any contract extension must accommodate this passion. He would probably also like an opportunity to compete in rugby league, from where he joined French Top 14 side Toulon in late 2008. Williams’ manager Khoder Nasser was quoted in the [I]Sunday Star-Times[/I] newspaper saying: ‘Sonny will remain in New Zealand as long as the NZRU is fair and just. We’ve started negotiations and, if they are fair and just, they have nothing to fear.’ The NZRU introduced similar flexibility into Dan Carter’s recent contract extension, allowing the star flyhalf a six-month sabbatical at some point. They are expected to announce the re-signing of their third marquee player, Richie McCaw, this week. [/QUOTE]
