Saviour or sellout? The story behind the star who shines across the codes Adulation for rugby league sensation Sonny Bill Williams turned to incrimination overnight when he left the Bulldogs to play for rich French club Toulon, earning himself the new name of 'Money Bill' Williams. Then he made no secret of the fact that he would like to change codes to rugby union if that allowed him to front up in the All Blacks' 2011 Rugby World Cup squad. Rumours and counter-rumours swirled, until the guy with the big hand was signed to Canterbury and duly made an appearance in the All Blacks. Throw in sporadic stints boxing, and the tale of this superb athlete follows the highways and byways of professional sport across the codes. Is Sonny Bill King of the Codes or King of Cash? The controversy still rages.
