Parramatta released Willis at the end of the 2017 season.

he's been back and forward and between teams so many times its hard to keep up.

should have stayed at league for a year or two to at least to get a profile.

How is it that a kid with his talent in League and Boxing is simply sitting on the sidelines? He can't seem to hold down a NRL gig where someone of his caliber if not NOW then certainly in 18-24months could command 150+ a season. NOt bad coin in anyones books. He's been inactive in boxing and has talent there could be making or certainly on his was to making some good biscuit there also

There is a bench player named Louis Meehan on Newtown's books, but he didn't partake in their last match on the 15th March.

Willis is now playing for the Concord Burwood Glebe Wolves in the third tier Ron Massey Cup.

The Ron Massey Cup is a semi-professional Rugby League competition – the second-tier competition for NSWRL Seniors – with clubs and players feeding into the Intrust Super Premiership NSW, which then in turn feeds into the NRL.

Appears his NRL aspirations are over playing at that level, but there is still plenty of time to return to the ring.

And young Willis is returning to the ring at the Roma Function Centre in Liverpool (NSW) on 6th July.

Willis (5-0-0) meets Jonasa Kavika (3-0-0) for the vacant World Boxing Foundation Australasian Heavyweight Title.

Good to see Meehan back into boxing - where he can make a statement. I can see him getting an Australian title in no time providing he sticks with it. Will have to see and watch more fights to see if he's anything above domestic level prospect but Willis definitely has some decent boxing skills, knock out power and is already a superior athlete.
