In a classic case of Rugby League player movement, another Wests Tigers outside back looks set to cross town to join a rival club as the Tigers continue to shake up their roster with Shane Richardson at the helm and Benji Marshall calling the shots on the field.
After news broke that Navren Willett is packing his bags for the Manly Sea Eagles, it appears that centre Will Craig might be the next to wave goodbye to the Tigers and make a switch to the Penrith Panthers for the upcoming season.
A product of the renowned 2022 Western Suburbs Magpies team that clinched the Harold Matthews Cup, Craig has been a loyal Tiger with a multi-year contract.
Alongside promising talents like Jordan Miller, Lachlan Galvin, Heath Mason, Luke Laulilii, and Tallyn Da Silva, Craig has risen through the ranks in the Tigers' pathways system.
Known fondly as 'Wills', the young 18-year-old has honed his skills this season in the Jersey Flegg Cup, inching closer to his dream of making his NRL debut in the near future.
The Tigers will bid farewell to another promising talent if Craig finalizes his move to the Panthers, adding another chapter to the ever-evolving Rugby League landscape.
