Richie Williams vs Mark Gasnier

Former Dragons super sledger Richie Williams will face his old club and former teammate Mark Gasnier at pivot this weekend in what should put some interest back into the NRL cellar affair between the Penrith Panthers and the St George Illawarra Dragons.

Richie Williams hit the headlines in a big way when he gave Braith Anasta a huge sledging and came off with a loss; plenty has changed since then - with Williams finding a home at Penrith and working his way into the first grade pivot role.

The young prospect learnt a harsh lesson pretty quickly after the Anasta affair and naturally is a little sheepish with the media these days.
