Just when you thought all the drama surrounding Sonny Bill Williams was over...

Sonny recently injured his leg, and has had some down time while he recovers - and this has no doubt added to his homesickness.
Moving to France was never going to be easy for Sonny, especially when you consider everything that he left behind in Australia. His friends and family are in Australia and New Zealand, and for him to suddenly leave all that behind, and move to the other side of the world - well, it was inevitable that he would struggle with homesickness.
Apparently, someone close to Sonny has approached the Bulldogs, while Khoder Nasser has flown to France to check up on Sonny's welfare. You can bet he won't be happy to see Sonny return to the Bulldogs if it means taking a pay cut.
The Bulldogs have stated that they will only be interested in talking to Sonny if he returns on "bended knee", and "under the club's terms and conditions". In other words, things wont be as cushy for Sonny as they were before.
The biggest problem is that the Bulldogs have made a lot of signings since Sonny departed the club, and so they may not have the funds to resign him - and that may bring a halt to him returning (as part of the settlement, Sonny cannot return to any other club until 2013).
It's going to be interesting to see how this all plays out - just don't expect it to go smoothly.
