Sonny Bill Williams has reportedly signed a deal with the Sydney Roosters to help the club maximise the potential of teenage signing Joseph Suaalii.
In 2004, Williams made his own teenage NRL debut for the Bulldogs and has gone on to forge one of the greatest careers seen in modern Australasian professional sports.
By signing Williams as a mentor, to work specifically with Suaalii, the Roosters are hoping some of that gold dust will rub off onto the teenager's own career.
"SBW met with Roosters chairman Nick Politis, who has long wanted the dual international to have a role with the club post-football," Sun Herald writer Danny Weidler wrote last Thursday after spotting Williams at the club's training facility.
"Politis wants it even more after signing Suaalii. The pair will work well together."
