Another example of the NRL being concerned about the wrong people. As stated previously, SBW does not care about league itself, yet the NRL can't step in to keep loyalty in the game.
Sonny Bill Williams is set to boycott the Anzac Test after being caught up in New Zealand's energy drink and sleeping pill scandal during last year's Rugby League World Cup.
The Roosters star is still furious about being implicated in the scandal and is leaving Australia for a short holiday a day before the Kiwis go into camp on Sunday, according to a Daily Telegraph report.
It was reported that Williams and Kieran Foran, his room-mate on the tour, had been identified in an investigation conducted by the NZRL, with the pair later being cleared of any wrongdoing.
The NZRL has not received an official word from Williams on his availability.
Williams' withdrawal would be a huge blow to the marketability of the Test match.
It comes after Foran was ruled out for the Kiwis, with Manly saying the star five-eight will miss four weeks with a knee injury he picked up in the win over the Cowboys last weekend
